TOMASHUK Inna – PhD of Economics, Senior Lecturer of the Department of Economics and Entrepreneurship, Vinnytsіa National Agrarian University (21008, Vinnytsіa, 3, Soniachna Str., e-mail: tomashuk.inna@ukr.net).
The peculiarities of the concept of Total Quality Management (hereinafter – TQM) in the activities of domestic enterprises in the conditions of the implementation of the European development vector of Ukraine were studied. It is indicated that the guarantee of the enterprise's activity on the basis of sustainability is its competitiveness. It is emphasized that ensuring the proper quality of the performed works and services is one of the important tasks that are solved at the enterprise within the framework of management activities.
Attention is focused on the fact that in modern conditions of economic development, quality is a general set of characteristics of products (work, services), which are part of (are a component of) marketing, development, production and maintenance, with the help of which products (work, service) must meet needs at a price the consumer can afford.
Quality management is defined as a continuous process of influencing production through the consistent performance of logically interrelated functions to ensure product quality. It has been investigated that effective management of the quality of goods, works and services can be ensured by creating a quality management system at the enterprise.
It is noted that today in quality management at the enterprise, a certified quality management system is important, which is a guarantee of high stability of quality characteristics of products, goods and services. The quality system certificate allows the enterprise to maintain a competitive advantage in the market.
It was emphasized that a significant impetus for the creation of international standards of the ISO 9000 series can be considered a significant increase in consumer demands for product quality.These requirements are regulated by relevant regulatory documentation (standards, technical conditions and regulations).
It is noted that the quality management process should cover all the stages of production. It is indicated that, regardless of the direction of the activity of the business entity, the quality policy declared by the top management of the enterprise must ensure such a level of quality that guarantees the optimal profit of the enterprise. Ways to achieve this goal can be different and are determined by the general market strategy of the enterprise.
It was concluded that modern quality management at the enterprise, regardless of the forms of ownership and scale of production, should optimally combine actions, methods and means that ensure, on the one hand, the production of products, goods and the provision of services that meet the current requirements and needs of the market, and on the other hand, the development of new products capable of meeting future market demands and needs.
