How do arise the quality management systems?
The American response to the quality revolution in Japan gave birth to the concept of total quality management (TQM), a method for quality management that emphasized not only statistics but approaches that embraced the entire organization.
Independent organizations began producing standards to assist in the creation and implementation of quality management systems.
At the start of the 21st century, QMS had begun to merge with the ideas of sustainability, and transparency, as these themes became increasingly important to consumer satisfaction.
