What is TQM?
TQM is the integration of
all functions and
processes within an
organization in order to
achieve continuous
improvement of the
quality of goods and
services. The goal is
customer satisfaction.
A FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPT OF TQM FROM BS 7850 - A ‘PROCESS’
“A set of inter-related resources and activities which transform inputs into
outputs.” (ISO 8402).
“Any activity that accepts inputs, adds values to these inputs for
customers, and produces outputs for these customers. The customers may
be either internal or external to the organization.” (BS 7850)
CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT
SEVEN BASIC QUALITY TOOLS
HISTOGRAMS
A histogram is a bar
graph that shows
frequency data.
Histograms provide
the easiest way to
evaluate the
distribution of data.
PARETO CHART
The Pareto Chart is a histogram ordered
by the frequency of result occurrences,
showing how many results were by the
type or category of the identified cause.
The relative position of the
occurrences is used to guide corrective
actions.
The corrective actions must initially
focus on the problems that are causing
the majority of defects.
CAUSE AND
EFFECT
DIAGRAM
It shows how several
causes relate themselves
to problems or potential
effects.
FLOWCHARTING
A flowchart is any chart
that depicts how several
elements interact with each
other
CONTROL CHARTS
Control charts present the
results of a process over time.
They are used to determine if
the process is under control.
They are used to monitor any
type of variable output.
Can be used to monitor
• Cost and schedule variances;
• Volume and frequency of
changes;
• Errors in the project
documentation
CHECKLIST
It is a list with
previously defined
options that are used
as a guide to control
risks.
It allows a thorough
evaluation in a short
period of time.
SCATTER
DIAGRAMS
Scatter Diagrams are
used to study and identify
the possible relationship
between the changes
observed in two different
sets of variables.
