A quality management system (QMS) helps organizations consistently deliver products that meet customer satisfaction through implemented business processes. An effective QMS translates organizational goals into policies and resources that guide standard operating procedures adopted across the organization. A QMS defines responsibilities and collects data to monitor satisfaction and make improvements.

A Quality Management System is a set of business processes which are
implemented to help an organization deliver products which consistently achieve customer satisfaction. An effective system for managing quality translates an organization's purpose and goals into policies and resources which help every member of the organization adopt standard operating procedures (SOPs). The use of management frameworks to ensure consistent quality isn’t a new concept, but the purpose of quality systems has evolved slightly in recent years. Question about requirements • What are the quality policy we can implement? • What are the basic guidelines we can use? • Define organization’s structure and responsibility? • How can we manage data? • What are the ways to monitor satisfaction? • In which field we can make improvement? What are the quality policy? The quality principle are as follow: • Customer focus • Leadership • Engagement of people • Process approach • Continuous improvement • Evidence-based decision making • Relationship management Quality objective • To encourage organizations to define strategic goals and a purpose • To obtain total compliance with staff training requirements and raise average assessment scores from 90% to 95%. • Well-written objectives lend purpose to a QMS initiative and establish a customer-centric culture in an organization. • Translate an organization’s vision into practice by creating a link between customer requirements and specific, measurable, and attainable goals. Organization structure and Responsibilities A quality management system should include a clear and updated model of the organization's structure and responsibilities of all individuals within the organization. Documentation of structure and responsibilities should include visual guides such as flowcharts and clear documentation. The organizational components are: a) Personnel b) Equipment c) Information Systems d) Tools for Assessment e) Facilities f) Purchasing & Inventory g) Process Controls h) Documents & Records Data management • Data is at the core of modern approaches to total quality management. Data quality and availability are critical to the success of a QMS framework to drive continuous improvement and preventative quality control activities. Organizations with ineffective data management practices can experience inconsistent product quality, operating inefficiencies, compliance risks, poor customer satisfaction, and low profitability. • An organization must be able to provide meaningful data evidence of effective quality controls. Data management systems should support continuous improvement efforts and corrective actions by defining the types of data that are gathered by the organization and third-party sources. The policy for data management should address data types, sources, collection methods, responsibilities, storage, disposal, and analysis. Costumer satisfaction with product quality A core component of QMS is the requirement for organizations to monitor customer satisfaction to determine if quality objectives are achieved. Some standards do not prescribe specific methods for measuring customer satisfaction since the definition of product quality and available data can vary significantly between organizations. A first step to establishing monitoring systems for customer satisfaction should be the definition of appropriate methods for measuring customer attitudes and complaints. This could include: • Satisfaction Surveys • Complaints Procedures • Analytical Applications to measure satisfaction trends • Management Review of customer satisfaction Continuous Improvement Designing organizational processes to meet QMS standards for continuous improvement requires clear documentation of controls across the organization. Improvement documentation should encompass, at a minimum: • Quality Planning Procedures • Compliance Requirements • Safety Design • Risk-based Thinking • Corrective Action (CAPA) • Gradual and Breakthrough Improvement • Innovation • Assessment of the QMS
