Retired United States Air Force (Tactical Air Command) General Bill Creech claim in his book that he coined the term "Total Quality Management," in early 1980's. (page 6 of ''The Five Pillars of TQM'', Bill Creech, Trumen Talley Books , New York 1995, ISBN 0-452-27102-9 ). At the time Japanese automobile manufactures were grabbing a greater share of the American market with cars of higher quality then American cars. Creech claim he created TQM without knowing of Deming's or Juran's works. He devised the term from a ''total'' approach to put ''quality'' in every aspect of ''management''. The name then spread throughout the United States Department of Defense. |

TQM was popular from about 1985 to 1995. It has since been replaced by other methods (such as ]). TQM was a group of techniques used to improve an organization. It typically included: |
|
|
|
|
|
* Company wide quality control ("TQM is not limited in its application" |
|
|
|
|
|
* Continuous quality improvement |
|
|
* Total customer satisfaction or service |
|
|
* Total employee involvement |
|
|
* Integrated process management |
|
|
|

(See ''The Quality Book'', by Greg Hutchins, published by QPE, Portland OR. 199 |
|
|
|
|
|
Although based on sound principles TQM ultimately faded away. It began to be thought of as a fad or hype that did not produce results. The reason for TQM's failure are discussed in Hutchins' book and in Juan's book, ''Juran on Quality by Design'', J.M. Juran, The Free Press, 1992, ISBN 0-02-916683 |
|
|
7. Reason include the long time needed to see result (it can take up to six years, not a quick fx), poor definition the |
|
|
goals, lack of top management buy-in, vague plans, fear (will I engineer myself out of a job?), confusion (TQM uses a mixture of techniques and principle that managers may not understand), and poor definition of responsibilities. ] 00:44, 11 January 2006 |

:: If that is true, General Creech is self-promoting. The phrase Total Quality Control was used by ] as early as the 1951 publication of his book, ''Quality Control: Principles, Practice, and Administration''.. In any case, Deming was teaching ]'s principles, and even he attributed much to Shewhart. Deming was a popularizer and probably better known than other pioneers because the Japanese quality revolution forced Americans to ''re''discover what had been developed here - something that was attributed to Deming, but also included ] and the incredible Japanese advancements. ] 01:04, 5 March 2006 (UTC) |

:For posterity, Creech simply claims that he invented his own TQM around the same time that '''the''' TQM came into existence. Here are the quotes: |
|
|
:*p.6 "I have long used the "Five Pillars" as a way of describing the need for a broad foundation for TQM. In fact, the depiction opposite is of the slide I used in my first speech to a business seeking my advice when I joined the business world (from the Air Force) in early 1985." |
|
|
:*p.6 "I concocted the TQM logo on the book's jacket, and on my speech slides such as this one, back in January 1985, when I gave the first of many speeches to business audiences on the subject. "TQM" wasn't a term in use back then. The literature on the quality approach, such as it was, centered on such overarching descriptors as ''"Concurrent Engineering,"'' ''"Design-build Teams,"'' and ''"Lean Production."'' |
|
|
:*p.7 "Accordingly, I dubbed what I had done to transform organizations "TQM," and used the Five Pillars as one means of emphasizing the "Total" part of the title." |
|
|
:*p.7 "I'm not staking a claim here as father of the term "TQM." Who cares? I am, however, staking my claim to describing it as I have seen it in action in its most successful form." |
|
|
:*p.476 "Incidentally, my use of the term "Total Quality Management" owes nothing in its lineage whatsoever to the Total Quality Control of either Feigenbaum or Ishikawa. I had heard of neither one, nor of their concepts, when I was practicing the Five Pillar variety of TQM successfully—or when I chose the terms Total Quality Management—and TQM—to describe what my quality-focused and decentralization-oriented management style was all about." |

This article has some interesting but out of context facts. Even Wikiperdia recognizes that Armand V Fiegenbaum wrote about TQM in his book Total Quality Control in 1961. Claiming some general invented it and that it came about in the 80's is nonsense. Get some people that know what they are talking about to write these articles. See "Feigenbaum, Armand Vallin (1961), Total Quality Control, McGraw-Hill, OCLC" for more information. 250573852 <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 14:31, 6 August 2014 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |
