Total Quality Management
 Meaning
TQM is an integrated organizational approach in
delighting customers (both external and internal) by

through everyone involved with the organizational
working on continuous improvement in all

solving methodology.

Conclusion
 We have learned about the various techniques used for the
improvement of quality and have seen the types, effects and the
problems associated with each of the techniques. Deciding upon
the “BEST” technique is next to impossible as they cannot be
compared and each has its own advantages and limitations. Firms
can utilize a combination of techniques which would garner better
results in the future.
 Thus, we conclude that adoption of such techniques are crucial for
any firm which wants to capture the market and gain consumer
loyalty. Also, there is the fact of maintenance of this quality level;
otherwise the goodwill of the firm will be lost. To keep the quality
standard up to expectations, the firm should engage in inspection
from time to time.
Thank you.
