Information on Continuous Improvement Program

Increasing emphasis on total quality management (TQM) and continuous improvement has precipitated greater deployment of team-oriented organisational structures and work processes. Both generally stress teamwork and cooperation, and collaboration among employees at all levels. These models recommend empowered work teams that (a) identify and satisfy customers and (b) continuously improve work processes for increased productivity and quality. The way there requires building capacity of the work team to better meet immediate and future requirements. There are clear parallels between Sociotechnical Systems and quality and improvement programs. Each actively engages employees together to solve problems, make decisions, and manage activity.
