Development of an integrated model of a business excellence system

Abstract

In the era of a new century, high utilisation of technology and the Internet has caused dramatic changes in the market environment and business management. Therefore, industries will have to adopt many management systems or tools, especially the prevailing management systems. But they often encounter many problems in the implementation of these systems individually. It is needed to integrate these systems for the organisations to energise excellent performance. The aim of this paper is to develop an integrated business excellence system that incorporates total quality management (TQM), the Six Sigma programme, and other management methods or tools. The system is based on the frameworks of the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award (MBNQA) and the European Quality Award (EQA). Because the aim of implementing a business excellence system such as this is to achieve customer loyalty and excellent corporate performance, an integrated performance management system – incorporating strategic planning, Balanced Scorecard, and Hoshin management – is also developed and embedded in the integrated business excellence system presented here.
