Impact Of Total Quality Management On Production Cost Of An Organization (A Case Study of Nigeria Bottling Company Plc, Kaduna)

Abstract

This research seek to identify the impact of total quality management on production cost of an organization in Nigeria bottling company Plc, Kaduna Plant as a case study. Background of the study create awareness on total quality management as the hub for customers satisfaction quality become a primary source of global competitive advantages, and lead indicator for improved profitability. The statement of problem layered more emphasis on poor quality of product and personnel and the management behaviors towards the concept of Total Quality Management. The research work also attempted to identify the methods of quality control, cost of product, cost components that make up production cost and as Total Quality Management can reduce cost. The researcher went further to review related literatures on the project topic such as Evaluation and definition ofTotal Quality Management. The traditional vs Total Quality Management approach, as well as quality and product cost. The research methods use in the collection of data the justification for using the method as well as the statistical instrument used is established. These is one research hypothesis for which the questionnaire is drown and designed, administered to sample size of 25 respondents of the organization in question.

CHAPTER i: Introduction

1.1     Background of the Study

Total quality management is known as the primary role of management to lead an organization in its daily operations and maintains it as a viable entity into the future. Quality has become an important factor in these. Although ostensibly always. an objective of business is customer in customer terms, because a specific goal in the late 1980’s provide higher quality are recognized as a key element for success, most large operations taking that path have document the success, first they survived the competitors that has set the higher quality levels and now have regained some of their former market.  Total Quality Management is perhaps the leading management approach that compares employed to improve their product and services, quality with the aim of improving typical measures of business performance.  (e.g profit, increased market share reduced cost).  The Japans have capture more than 30% of the American and electronic markets.  It was achieved by offering higher value products.  In response to the boom in the competitor market, many American firms have implemented require the integration of Human resources, production engineering store and purchasing marketing, distribution, and planningis a continuous improvement process; it is much wider than the traditional quality view of incoming inspection and process control.  It means that the entire organization is working as a team including the cooperate top managers and each an every employee, it is on innovative way of thinking that affect the culture, the strategy and technology of company.  The organization needs a holistic approach so that every department in the organization should come together for cost reduction and improve products, approach will reduce cost and quality will be achieve for competitive advantage.

1.2Statement of the Problem

This Empirical research has identified some general problems that are associated with Total Quality Management which are listed below. One of the problems is the failure of organization to understand the importance of material quality control and often ignore its application. This has led to the receipt of low quality and substandard lots of materials into the in process, culminating in poor quality out put and increased cost for these organizations.

The problem of organization over-relying on suppliers ability as a result of trust thereby falling to check and/or monitor the incoming materials for any possible defect or deviations from specification.

Others are manpower related problems were also observed to be a major barrier for achieving a Total quality management program. Most organizations lack the service of specialists to handle materials quality control trained/retrained or lack of proper supervision due to top management neglect.

Facilitates related problem in organizations, there are inaccuracies in machineries, tools, fixtures, measuring  instruments etc. that are required in managing quality and total quality control process which can be disastrous for decision making as a result of the unreliable outcomes. The existence of these problems brought about the head for the research work so as to proffer solutions that are workable at the end.

1.3     Objective of the Study

The primary objective of the study is to identify the impact of quality management on production cost of an organization.

  1. To identify the challenges faced by manager in implementing Total Quality Management
  2. To identify the major cost component of Total Quality Management
  3. To identify the contribution of Total Quality Management on material and cost reduction
  4. To identify the method the Nigeria Bottling Company used in storage of raw material
  5. To identify the attributes of quality products

1.4     Significance of the study

The study will be of immense benefit to the researcher, the organization under study in achieving its goal and objective, other researcher, and the general public. It is sincerely hoped that the result of the study will be applied in areas that need to be improved in the organization under study. The study will also widen the horizon of the research on the topic under study and it will serve as reference to the researchers.

Finally, the research is a pre-requisite for the award of Higher National Diploma (HND) in Purchasing and Supply of Kaduna Polytechnic.

1.5     Scope of the Study

The research is limited to the Nigerian Bottling Company Kakuri Kaduna Plant, but the research will look at the entire concept of Total Quality Management as well as the major cost component of production and finally the application of Total Quality Management on material cost of production and finished goods cost.
