Description
Continuous cost reduction, productivity and quality improvement are mandatory for organisations to remain in business. Quality has now developed into the most important competitive weapon, with total quality management the way of managing for the future. TQM is structured around a five part model, with the core of the model being the customer-supplier interface. The case studies in this book illuminate hands-on application of the theories of TQM within the Pacific Rim region and include: Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Singapore, Hawaii, Hong Kong and Malaysia.
