Summary: | Quality management is a management function that ensures the quality of the products, services and/or
operation processes of an organization. It contributes to the competitiveness and maintains the

summarized into eight constructs. They are approaches, methods, tools and techniques, management
commitment, quality attitude and culture, customer focus, human resource management, supplier
relationship, cost of quality, measurement, information and analysis, and continuous improvement and
