Webb,
Murray & Associates was established in 1974 by two registered
engineers, formerly with DuPont, and since has provided professional
services to industry and government.
Since
its beginning, Webb, Murray has served chemical, petrochemical,
and refining companies along the Texas Gulf Coast. We provided
safety and fire protection services for NASA's Johnson Space
Center (JSC) from 1980-1994. Our rapid growth was recognized
by Inc. Magazine in 1982, 1983, and 1984 when the publication
named Webb, Murray as one of the 500 fastest-growing privately
held companies in the United States.
We
have been committed to quality service to our customers since
our beginning, but in 1990 a new structure began to take shape.
We held several leadership conferences, based on the theme In
Pursuit of Excellence, from the studies of Tom Peters. Many
of our associates attended the conferences in the years that
followed. In 1990 we also began to study Dr. W. Edward Deming's
philosophy of management. In early 1991 we selected seven key
company leaders to form our Quality Steering Committee (QSC)
and to become our advanced Deming students. Since then many
associates have attended Deming seminars, and we have trained
others internally in the Deming philosophy.
We
have a customer-driven, people-centered approach to quality
which recognizes the worth of the individual, and applies it
in an aligned way to provide world-class services to our customers.
It is our aim to continuously improve every system in our company
in a way which improves our service and products.
