Quality cuts into profitability have been a deep inhibiting myth of business world. Quality instills the act
of reciprocity and reduces the chance of defects thus enabling to minimize friction or any untoward
utilization of assets. On the contrary it stops negative social proof or motivation. Research have a
satisfied customer spreads positive social proof of one product and service and in turn acts as the best
motivational factor for retaining customer as well as drawing new one.
Quality management is the way of managing for the future, and is far wider in its application than just
assuring product or service quality, it is a way of managing people and business processes to ensure
complete customer satisfaction at every stage, internally and externally. It makes an organization do the
right things in the right way with the optimum input, cost and resource. But for an organization to be
committed towards quality management as a whole involves the proper understanding of customer
supplier interface which involves both internal and external. In each interface lie a number of processes
the sheath of which is woven by commitment of quality, quality of message, communication, service and
information and change of culture for incorporation of total quality.
The next milestone to achieve that arises, is in implementation. The best and first step towards quality
management lies and starts with the research and identification of true requirements of product and
service and the needs of customer. There exist in each nook and corner, each department, each office,
each home, a series of customers, suppliers and customer- supplier interfaces. However, for an
organization to be really effective, quality must span all functions, all people, all departments and all
activities and be a common language for improvement These form the quality chains, and a single
chain broken at any point by one person or one piece of equipment not meeting the requirements of the
customer, internal or external leads to the entire failure. The failure usually finds its way to the interface
between the organization and its external customer, or in the worst case, actually to the external
customer.
For an organization to become a total quality organization identification of certain functional and cultural
aspects are a must., These are projection of clean and clear directions from leader, not understanding, or
ignoring competitive positioning . Diversification of departmental, departments diversification should be
functional oriented towards a common objective not individual or departmental objective. Thirdly it is
efforts to control people through systems and lastly accepting that a level of defects or errors is inevitable
.These levels have to clear for an organization to be committed towards quality.
An organization exists on the principle of profitability and sustainability and when it comes to the aspect
of quality, questions starts being whispered is it a boon that can shower happiness , prosperity and
delight to an organization . In reality quality commitment ensure two important requirements are met i.e.
the customers requirements making him confidence in the ability of the organization to deliver the
desired product and service consistently & meeting their needs and expectations. Secondly the
organization requirements, both internally and externally, at an optimum cost with efficient use of the
available resources materials, human, technology and information cutting any unwanted loss of energy
efficiency or cost thus striving towards achieving consistent result in terms of profitability. A
commitment towards quality in an organization helps it to achieve the goals and objectives set out in its
policy and strategy. It provides consistency and satisfaction in terms of methods, materials, equipment,
etc, and interacts with all activities of the organization, beginning with the identification of customer
requirements and ending with their satisfaction, at every transaction interface. It can be envisaged as a
foundation stone to build the epitome of profit and gains achieved along the quality committed journey,
and stores good practices from laundering away.
Quality is the right and choice of each and every individual and customer both internal and external. In
the present world it is the only pillar that holds the sustainability, stability and prosperity of
organizations. It gives each organization something to stand for and claim it as its own. All organization
can make profit but to sustain and grow quality is the only path to tread. Besides as rightly said by Henry
Ford A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business. and in present world we should
try to become great business nor poor business.
