- Title
Small Businesses Band Together to Improve Quality and Productivity.
- Abstract
Several small and midsized New England businesses have joined forces in a total quality management (TQM) network designed to help improve their quality and productivity. Together, businesses have established strategic plans and trained frontline employees to work in teams, solve problems and make improvements in their daily work. This type of collaborative learning process for TQM is gaining popularity in small businesses since it enables them to take advantage of consulting and training services that would normally be cost prohibitive, according to Research Engineering Inc., a training and consulting firm in Tolland.
