TQM Framework for Shell Services in Defining
In defining their own quality management framework named the Shell Services Quality Framework (SQF) Shell Services sought to create a framework that could encompass people, processes and quality as they related to serving the customer. Shell also wanted to defined a framework that would deliver the greatest accuracy in terms of their own standards, targets and metrics of performance. Tracking metrics over time by quality management initiative and creating a knowledgebase of results was also a critical success factor for the development of the framework. The design objectives included having a high degree of simplicity, completeness, harmonization and exclusivity within the structure, allowing for rapid adoption and use. Shell envisioned the framework being a core part of their culture going forward. Best practices in quality management require that the organizational culture changes to adopt and actively rely on the core foundational elements of a quality management framework if it is to be effective (Kujala, Lillrank, 2004). This is precisely why Shell designed their own unique quality management framework with the four attributes mentioned above. The four components of Processes, Process Control, Customers and Business Excellence Model all contribute and support the SQF framework. This relative simplicity of design allowed for Shell to adapt the framework quickly to many varying needs and initiatives.

Applying Justice Framework Practice
While it is understand that the core processes of the just practice framework are not linear, they are addressed that way in this paper for the sake of simplicity and clarity. In fact, the core processes occur both in an iterative fashion and often, too, simultaneously, as nested processes that are largely inseparable. While they are core processes, they are also ways of approaching the transactions between the social worker and the client, and transactions among the stakeholders.
