Module Title : Total Quality Management;

Assignment Question

Consider an organisation with which you are familiar (Maaden Phosphate Company – KSA).
To what extent did it achieve the core principles of TQM (customer satisfaction, continuous improvement, workforce commitment)?

Explain the barriers that existed to achieving these principles and discuss their influence on the success or failure of the organisation’s TQM practices.

Further Guidance

(a) Be careful not to spend too much of your assignment simply describing course concepts or examples. Your emphasis should be on applying the frameworks or concepts,

to allow you to analyse the issues identified in the question and for this analysis to be a foundation for your subsequent conclusions;

(b) Examples can be from your own experience or from other sources (appropriately
referenced);

(c) We also advise that you use the electronic databases (e.g. Business Source Premier and Emerald) in the library to search for additional academic articles which

support your answer;

(d) Remember to reference sources appropriately.

Assessment Criteria

In addition to the criteria outlined above, students are expected to demonstrate:

(a) the ability to apply frameworks and concepts from the TQM literature to ‘real world’ cases;

(b) the ability to identify the implications of such an analysis for quality and quality
management within organisations; and

(c) the ability to reach a conclusion based upon the analysis of both theory and practice in addressing the question.
