In today’s conditions, major developments in the fields of information, technology and communication are dragging societies into fierce competition and an economic race in which new developments occur every day.
The globalization of world trade has expanded the scope and boundaries of competition, and the number of participants in the race has increased. Moreover, the participants in this race are becoming more and more qualified every day.
Customers have become more conscious and knowledgeable, and customer expectations have reached the highest level. It is no longer enough to meet customer expectations, it is necessary to go beyond these expectations. The pace of change has increased, and especially the developments in technology have made previously unimaginable applications possible. It is now very difficult for organizations that cannot keep up with change and the pace of change to survive.
The survival of businesses can only be achieved by producing goods or providing services that meet customer needs and expectations in all sectors. For this reason, the implementation of a Quality Management System that covers all stages from the design stage to production, marketing and after-sales services and aims for continuous improvement has become an indispensable condition in organizations.
