TOTAL QUALITY: A Long-term Success Strategy

 

What is Quality? 

“A measure of excellence or a state of being free from defects, deficiencies, and significant variations. Quality is brought about by strict and consistent commitment to certain standards that achieve uniformity of a product, service, or process in order to satisfy specific customer or user requirements.” 

Total Quality Management (TQM) is not a one-time operation or an occasional practice. It is a regular and ongoing process in which errors in production or manufacturing, supply chain, and customer service or experience are detected to reduce or eliminate them. It involves all employees, not just the top management, and integrates quality improvement into the organization using data, systems, processes, strategies, and communication. 


Advantages of TQM

Fewer defects: TQM ensures that products and services are created error-free in the first place. This naturally reduces product defects and the need for recalls, fixes, or customer support.

Reduced costs: Fewer defects result in cost savings for organizations due to fewer spends on product fixes, replacements, and customer support, which ultimately increases profit margins. 

Customer satisfaction: Error-free, quality products lead to higher customer satisfaction, which results in better word-of-mouth, higher sales, and greater market share.

Better company culture: Organizations with TQM in place develop a mindset of quality and constant improvement that becomes embedded in all aspects and processes. 


Why TQM?

In the highly competitive world economy, technology has been the key for organizations to stay on top of their game. However, due to rapidly evolving technology and consumer expectations, products/services have to be of higher quality, greater utility, and lower cost to be relevant and useful. This challenge can only be met with an even higher efficiency that minimizes waste and utilizes resources fully. 

Total Quality Management, therefore, has strategic importance for an organization that wants to be future-ready and thrive in tomorrow’s ultra-competitive climate. The benefits of TQM mentioned above result in waste elimination and overall improvement in efficiency and productivity, leading to higher competitive fitness. Quality is, thus, the best investment for industries and organizations today. It ensures that all parts and people of an organization work together to continuously improve its products, services, processes, and culture, enabling long-term competitiveness, growth, and success.
