a business no matter what their function. It recognises the necessity to develop processes across the business, that together lead to the reliable delivery of exact, agreed customer requirements. This will achieve the most competitive cost position and a higher return on investment.

CONCLUSION• The findings of the study indicate that the company adopts a

multiple-stakeholder philosophy for successful execution of TQM that squarely values the customers, employees, and community.

• TQM is based on the strategic plans of the company and expectations of its stakeholders.

• The organization implements a number of TQM tools, and the entire production and service departments strive to implement these tools.
