Summary

Introduction

One of the important tasks of today's business is to understand customers, recognize their needs and desires, meet them, and at the same time try to exceed their expectations. The view of the customer or service user is taken as the basis for defining the new quality concept. Quality has grown out of a fundamentally new, scientific view of work. It is not the scientific management of Frederick Winslow Taylor from the early twentieth century, who first applied scientific methods to rationalize and increase labor productivity and described them in his books [1]. A set of tools and processes whose outputs bring consumer satisfaction and continuous improvement is the philosophy of Total Quality Management. Concept holders of TQM (Total Quality Management) in the company are all employees. All employees are responsible for reaching quality standards According to this concept, formal control systems are abolished. The basis of TQM is the principles of the Quality Management System - QMS, which we discuss in this paper
