This book was released on 1990 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Government and industry have come to understand that previously acceptable quality norms of goods and services are no longer acceptable. Customer satisfaction, reliability, productivity, costs, and for industry, market share, profitability, and even survival are directly affected by the quality of an organization's products, services, and performance. Therefore, it becomes essential to develop attitudes and systems - at all levels of an organization - that promote and implement continuous improvement of procedures, processes, products, and services. Those attitudes and systems are the focus of Total Quality Management (TQM). This guide supports the implementation of DoD directive 5000.51 on Total Quality Management and is designed to provide a basic understanding of TQM. Executives and managers may find the guide to be particularly useful in this regard. Also, its use is encouraged to support training. The implementation of TmQ in any organization must take into consideration such factors as the organization's unique product or service, culture, customers, level of knowledge, and experience. This guide, therefore, must be tailored to its specific application. The guide provides one approach, but others are possible. Innovative approaches are encouraged.

Download or read book Implementation of Total Quality Management written by Erdener Kaynak and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a comprehensive guide for training a workforce in Total Quality Management (TQM). An ideal resource for trainers, Total Quality Management Implementation contains a complete presentation of all relevant aspects of TQM. It provides a ready-made training format that can be used in all operational seminar/workshop contexts and includes a full set of charts for use by trainers in their presentations of TQM. The book assumes the trainer has a basic understanding of quality management, and it does not repeat the numerous discussions of TQM concepts readily available in other works. Total Quality Management Implementation begins with an overview of the current status of TQM in the United States. It then presents W. Edward Deming’s 14 point TQM philosophy, the core of his recommendations for achieving quality excellence through continuous improvement, along with a discussion of each point. The presentation charts have been designed to allow the trainer to adapt them to a particular organization’s unique characteristics and to supplement or add to them as necessary to fully explain each point to a particular audience. The charts are arranged in sequential order and follow the approach used by the author in training seminars around the world. Trainers can easily manipulate the length of the presentation for different audiences and purposes. A reference section lists many books on TQM principles which provide a helpful refresher. Total Quality Management Implementation is a unique and helpful guide for trainers with a basic knowledge of TQM, college or university faculty teaching TQM seminars or courses, and consultants and quality professionals who could use a reference and checklist of TQM principles.

The companies that will dominate markets in the 1990s and beyond will deliver high-quality, competitively priced products just when the consumer wants them.The vehicle by which those companies will reach that stage is Total Quality, a company-wide effort seeking to install and make permanent a climate where employees will continuously improve their ability to provide on-demand products and services that customers will find of particular value.
