of staff play a part in improving the process, products, services and

all organizational functions (marketing, finance, design,
engineering, and production, customer service, etc.) to focus on
meeting customer needs and organizational objectives.

Total Quality Management (TQM) in 1913 when he proposed
principles such as “customer satisfaction”, “quality”, “fairness”,
“value”, “related training” and “rewards for performance” play an
important role in an organization
Moreover, in the early 1900s, “father of scientific management”,
Fredrick W. Taylor, also suggested other quality principles (Garvin,
1988)
