CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
Total quality
management can be defined as a strategy for improving business performance
through the commitment of all employees to fully satisfying agreed customer
requirements at the lowest cost through the continuous improvement of products
and services, business processes and the people involved.
Deleforge (2000) also
pointed out that total quality management is concerned with the management of
all aspects of quality services provided to the customer. This includes quality
of goods delivery price of services, quality of promotion and merchandising.
The importance quality to an organization cannot be overemphasized because of
it attribute to the fact that quality determines to a large extent,
productivity, customer satisfaction, profit and other key performance element
to an organization.
Total Quality
Management (TQM) is one of the approaches used to enforce quality in the system
and process of and organization as a concept, it sees the participation of all
and sundry. Organization in the pursuit of quality so as to ensure customer
satisfaction and organizational and societal benefit. The rationale behind the
total quality management (TQM) concept is that, since a major objective of most
corporate organizations (especially the profit concerns) is to gain and
maintain competitive advantage every key elements that has a direct bearing on
the achievements of that goal is to be accorded priority attention, among these
elements is a quality as it is central to the organization’s competitiveness.
The concept of TQM
view that, to achieve and sustain competitive advantage. A firm has to be at
the best (optimum productivity) and on the other hand, the expectation of
customers has to be met or satisfied. For the reasons quality which is true
fundamental element in the productivity index assessment has therefore become
and remain a business of all within the firm as it has direct linkages to both
productivity and customers satisfaction problem surrounding the status of a
company’s competitiveness cannot be in connected with it product performance
that how well a product deliver to expectation, largely determines how
competitive the company become.
1.2 Statement
of the Problems
The continued effort
of firm to grow and improve their performance, both internally and in the

The question of these hastens firm fared in regard to quality is almost answer
immediately by assessment of the revealing each firms position in the market
place that begin to come to tire is how these firm see quality, has quality
been properly defined as expressed in their processes and output? In what
aspects are the firms internal processes adding the achievement of quality and
which are the area in which they are lacking? What is the extent of their
measuring to customers, requirements and expectation? The concept of total
quality management (TQM) is an approach intended to inculcate a total quality orientation
at all levels of the firm where quality is intended to achieved first and
always how has this concept fared in the firms, in terms of applicability? Are
the strategies, technology and culture and also training and development of
organizational members of the organization duly impacted by the concept? What is
the productivity assessment of the firm saying in regard to output on quality
and firms competitiveness? A proper look and review of the perception,
processes and applications of quality and the TQM concept would help to revise
