Total Quality Management (TQM)

Program Overview
The concept of quality has existed for many years, though its meaning has changed and evolved over time. The meaning of quality for businesses changed dramatically in the late 1970s. Successful organizations understand that quality provides a competitive advantage. They put the customer first and define quality as meeting or exceeding customer expectations.
Total quality management (TQM) means that the quality of product, service, and processes is the responsibility of everyone in an organization. In other words, TQM capitalizes on the involvement of management, workforce, suppliers, and customers, in order to meet or exceed customer expectations.
