More approaches of TQM are stated in ISO 9004:2009MS which is a methodical grant on application of the quality system. The MS ISO 9001:2008contains a minimum of requirements for satisfaction of inquiries of consumers [18]. But nevertheless between the ISO standards of a series 9000 and the concept of TQM it is possible to allocate a number of differences which are given in table 1:
ISO 9000 and TQM standards
Table 1
| ISO 9000 | TQM |
| There is no need of focus on a certain consumer | Focus on a certain consumer |
| It is not integrated into corporate strategy | The integrated strategy of the company |
| Focus on technical systems and procedures | Focus on philosophy, concepts, tools and methodology |
| The involvement of all employees is not obligatory | Emphasizes need of involvement of all employees |
| Does not focus on continuous improvement | Continuous improvement and TQM are synonyms therefore TQM is represented the continuous and not terminating travel to quality |
| Responsibility for quality has to be defined and documentary issued, but often responsibility for quality is conferred on the relevant divisions, for example department of quality | Each employee is responsible for quality |
| Possibility of focus on divisions | Organization of all divisions, functions and levels |
| It is generally static | Means change of process and culture |
The main difference of TQM from the ISO standards of a series 9000 consists that TQM is top of modern methods of management of quality and is focused on improvement of quality of products when already there is a certain reached level, and introduction of the ISO standards of a series 9000 is rather directed on decrease in probability to make something incorrectly.

Lecture plan:
1. The main advantages from introduction of standards on control systems
2. History of development of standards on control systems
3. Basic principles of ISO 9000
4. Requirements to QMS and system approach to introduction of QMS
1. Before the first standards on quality systems were accepted, almost all bargains worth over one thousand dollars were concluded only after the consumer himself examines plant of the supplier and will be convinced that the supplier is really capable to let out that is called not "hack-work". The supplier had to maintain the mass of examinations from various consumers which requirements sometimes considerably differed from each other, and everyone could not please. The same problems were and at checking: continuous traveling, waste of time, painful searches of compromises, etc. Special standards in which the minimum requirements to the supplier imposed by the vast majority of consumers were stated were developed for simplification of procedure of precontractual relationship. In a consequence these standards received the name familiar today - standards on quality systems.
With the advent of standards on quality systems there was a universal measure of comparison allowing to estimate, what suppliers meet the established minimum requirements and what are not present. And even if some consumer exposed higher requirements, than is provided by the standard, he preferred to carry on conversation with that supplier which already had the certificate on the standard quality system, than with somebody else rather. Those consumers, whose requirements kept within a framework standard, at once could conclude bargains with the certified suppliers without additional checks if, of course, the quality system conformed to that standard which requirements the consumer considered sufficient, and the certificate was signed by that organization to which he trusts.
Today in the world more than three hundred thousand enterprises certified the quality systems according to the ISO standards of a series 9000. In their Russia there is not a lot of, but their number progressively increases. These standards became the most popular in the history of ISO because of considerable advertizing advantages which they give to the owner of the certificate before the next competitors.
And they find for themselves the increasing application not only in free business. Some state organizations which do not have direct competitors certify the quality systems for a gain to themselves additional trust of the public that is especially important in the countries having reputation democratic where all structures of management in many respects depend on public opinion.
2. The ISO standards of a series 9000 applied in the field of control systems of quality for the first time were revised in 1994. In December, 2000 there was an official publication of the new version of the international ISO 9000:2005 standards which replaced the edition of 1994.
As a result the complex of documents consisting earlier of 24 standards (some them remained at an introduction stage), contains 5 basic standards now:
ISO 9000:2005 Quality management system. Basic principles and dictionary;
|
|
|
ISO 9001:2008 Quality management system. Requirements (establishes minimum necessary set of requirements to quality systems and it is applied for certification and audit);
ISO 9004:2000 Quality management system. Guidelines on quality improvement (contains methodical instructions on creation of systems of quality management which are focused on high efficiency of activity of the enterprises);
ISO 19011:2011 Guidelines on check of quality management system and environmental protection;
ISO 10012 Ensuring quality of the measuring equipment.
The ISO 9001 and 9004 standards which are completely harmonized among themselves on structure and the contents are fundamental. They can be used both in common, and separately. Both standards have the identical structure founded on model of process of quality management, but different scopes. Both standards are applied to all categories of production, and make a basis for requirements which can be developed by concrete branches.
The ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 9004:2009 standards are planned as compatible to standards of other systems, in particular, with ISO 14001 and 14004 regulating control systems of environmental protection.
The existing ISO 8402 standard is transformed to the ISO 9000 standard. Bases of systems of quality management (the help section), and also concepts, terms and definitions (the standard section) entered it. The ISO 9000 standard replaces ISO 9000:1994 and ISO 8402. Thus the Dictionary (ISO 8402) underwent revision: in addition new terms are entered and the part of old concepts is specified.
Today about 500 thousand companies were around the world certified on compliance of ISO 9000. Certification according to the ISO 9000 standard allows the organizations:
- to apply for higher prices of delivery of the production in case of an entry into the international market;
- to increase system effectiveness of management of the organization;
- to cut down expenses on management;
- to increase the level of motivation of performing discipline of employees and at the expense of it to increase labor productivity.
3. ISO - International organization for standardization. Her members are national authorities and experts from the countries of all regions of the world, large and small, industrial and developing.
ISO develops standards and the managements which increase the value of the organizations of all types and promote more free and impartial trade between the countries. The ISO standards, usually help also advance of interests of consumers and users.
ISO/TK 176 Quality management and ensuring quality
ISO/TK 176 - the ISO technical committee responsible for development and maintenance of family of the ISO 9000 standards. Its area - creation of standards, the managements and brochures on questions of the general quality management, including quality systems, ensuring quality, and also the general supporting technologies.

1. Appointment of the Representative of the guide to QMS and development the Program of introduction of QMS at the enterprise
2. Stages of standard algorithm of introduction of QMS
1.After adoption by the first director of the strategic decision on introduction of quality management system since August works on introduction of QMS begin.
2. Goes for training for obtaining the official status of the expert - the auditor of QMS the specialist of the enterprise i.e. the certified specialist in certification of quality systems is necessary.
3. The representative of the guide to QMS is appointed - Representative of the guide to QMS
According to the item ST RK ISO 9001 QMS of the Requirement. the order it is appointed from structure of the top management - the representative of the guide to QMS who irrespective of the functions on primary activity provides the management and control of works on development, introduction, improvement and effective functioning of QMS of the organization. The representative of the guide to QMS on the basis of reports of the internal checks responsible for quality of structural divisions, auditors plans and directs works on improvement of quality management system of the organization.
The Program of introduction of QMS at the enterprise is developed and approved. This program includes usually 5 stages and contains: the list and the name of the developed documents QMS, executives for work, heads of the processes responsible for quality in divisions, training of the personnel in the IS ISO 9001 standards, terms of performance of work, an order of coordination and the approval of documents QMS, introduction QMS and an assessment of its functioning, an order and terms of carrying out internal audits, preparation of QMS for certification at the international level.
Constantly operating working groups for conducting works on QMS in structural divisions and on control of introduction of QMS with distribution of powers and responsibility are created.
According to this Program all works on introduction of QMS are carried out.
2 Standard algorithm of introduction of QMS includes the following stages:
1. The order on the beginning of introduction of QMS at the enterprise is issued.
2. The Policy of the enterprise in the field of quality is developed.
3. Fundamental standards of the enterprise in the field of quality are developed.
4. The Quality manual of the enterprise is developed.
5. Internal audits of the developed QMS are booked.
6. On the basis of the revealed discrepancies according to the quality system the correcting events are held.
7. On the basis of the held correcting events changes are made to normative documents of the quality system.
8. Introduction of system of management is carried out.
9. Certification of the quality system by external body for certification is carried out.
1. At introduction of QMS all developed documentation is approved by the order on the enterprise. Begins the first stage of introduction of QMS with development and the adoption of the order on work on QMS. The form of the order and its registration is carried out according to the established rules at the enterprise. The documentary procedure regulating all stages of registration, coordination and the approval of the documents relating to organizational administrative documentation (orders, service records, statements, etc.) is developed for management of management process organizationally - administrative documentation at the enterprise
2. The top management of the organization has to provide definition, documentary registration and adoption of policy in the field of quality, including tasks of quality and the obligations for quality. When developing policy in the field of quality the top management has to consider:
- possibilities of future improvement necessary for success of the organization;
- the planned level of satisfaction of the consumer;
- possibilities of professional growth of the personnel of the organization;
- inquiries and expectations of all interested parties (consumers, staff of the organization, society, shareholders, investors)

- contribution of suppliers and partners.
Effectively formulated and reported policy in the field of quality has to:
- to be the organization coordinated with the forecast of the future;
- to be under construction so that the purposes in area of quality were clear in all organization;
- to show commitment of the top management to the obligation in quality and security with adequate resources for its achievement;
- to be focused on continuous improvement and on satisfaction of consumers.
The stable ensuring quality of production, or services satisfying consumers has to be the main direction of policy of the organization in the field of quality.
Intentions of the management of the organization to provide satisfaction of requirements of all interested parties which treat, except consumers, the staff of the organization, suppliers of materials and components, investors, shareholders, etc. have to be reflected in policy in the field of quality.
It is necessary to reflect commitment of the management to provide activity of the organization so that production, or performance of services, and also products did not cause damage to environment.
Increase of competitiveness of production (services) and export opportunities of the organization, gain of new sales markets can be one of the directions of the accepted policy in the field of quality.
The solution of social problems of staff of the enterprise and society due to release of competitive production (services) and minimization of risks and losses owing to production of inadequate quality can be reflected in policy in the field of quality.
Examples of separate provisions from policy on quality of the advanced firms:
Rolls Roys firm (Great Britain): "The policy of firm consists in supporting such level of quality and reliability of the products and services which, by recognition of consumers, none of competitors cannot be surpassed".
Heva Mitsubishi Indastris firm (Japan): "Quality above all, any compromises in the field of quality".
3 Development of fundamental standards of the enterprise in the field of quality
Art. 4.1 of ISO 9001:2008 "General requirements" demands from the organization (enterprise) of establishment, documentation, introduction and maintenance of quality management system and continuous increase of its efficiency according to requirements of the international standard". Development of the following documents belongs to fundamental standards of the enterprise (organization):
a) the documentary statement of policy is also more whole than quality;
b) quality manual;
c) the documentary procedures demanded by the international standard;
d) documents necessary for the organization for ensuring efficiency of planning, work and control of its processes;
e) the records demanded by the international standard.
ISO 9001:2008 specifically demands from organization "documentation of procedures" for the following six kinds of activity:
- 4.2.3. Control of documents
- 4.2.4. Control of records
- 8.2.2. Internal audit
- 8.3. Control not of the corresponding production
- 8.5.2. Remedial actions
- The warning actions
These procedures have to be controlled according to requirements
Art. 4.2.3. ISO 900:2008.
Depending on what processes at the enterprise are considered as the main, them also make out in the form of documentary procedures.
4 Development Quality manual of the enterprise (organization)
The quality manual is the generalizing document of quality management system of the enterprise and has to contain the description of policy in the field of quality, basic provisions of QMS, and also data on the enterprise and its activity in the field of quality.
The quality manual is developed to provide:
- effective introduction of quality management system;
- a statement of policy of the enterprise in the field of quality;
- effective management of processes in quality management system;
- standard basis for audit of quality management system;

Exceptions are limited to requirements to processes of life cycle of production (the section of 7 ST RK ISO 9001).
Exceptions have to be defined in a quality manual.
Legislative requirements can be applied in all cases even if the area is limited. Requirements of QMS can be strengthened for the purpose of satisfaction of legislative requirements.
5 Carrying out internal audits
After development, introduction and functioning of QMS at the enterprise (organization) are carried out internal inspections (audits) for detection of discrepancy and the analysis of the developed control system.
"Internal audit" is the process purpose:
- planning of internal audits; carrying out objective and independent internal audits of QMS;
