TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT AS A TOOL FOR ENHANCING ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT A CASE STUDY OF COCA-COLA PLC
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Quality improvement is the only hope for work redemption, recognition of the need for change through systematic and planned development is therefore a strength that organisation must work hard for.
Organisation must work had and must be willing to plan and anticipate to develop, as this is vital in remaining ahead of others, maintaining a remarkable standard in the commercial sector and also to retain the trust which can be best motivate workers involved in personal terms.
Total quality management as a tool for enhancing organisational development can be used to achieve organisational efficiency.
According to Lysons (1996), total quality management is defined as a management philosophy and company practices that aim to harness the human and material resources of the organisation in the most effective way to achieve the objectives of the organisation.
We can as well describe total quality management as a way of managing an organisation so that every job, every process is carried out right, first time and every time.
From the above definitions, we can say that total quality management focuses their attention on the need that, it is the responsibility of every member of the organisation to generate quality awareness in all aspects, it involves efficient and effective use of both human and material, so as to understand the requirement of all customers or consumers both internal and external. Total quality management has to be in place for every organisation to achieve its quality objectives. Also organisation should not give room to any form of defect in quality at any point in time.
Total quality management pervades every process and job carried out in the organisation i.e. they give clear instructions or specification to suppliers both internal and external, also asses capability “are capable of doing this job correctly and effectively”. The organisation must emphases on commitment, communication and cultural change to bring out continuous improvement in product or service with the aid of team work system and tools.
Total quality management is about meeting the needs and expectations of consumers present and future, it is also about cost reduction continuously and also quality improvement which are essential for an organisation to stay in business i.e. for organisational development.
In essence, the bottom line of total quality management is to ensure that every facet of production process is devoid of any form of error in quality. The raw material, the production process and the product must be free from quality related problems.

1.9 PROFILE OF COCA-COLA PLC
Coca-cola production in Nigeria began in 1953 at a bottling facility in Ebute-meta Lagos. Over the years production capacity grown to 13 bottling facilities and 59 depots located across the country.
The company is currently owned 66.4% by Hellenic with the balance it shares being held by over 52,000 other shareholders institutional, corporate and private. Hellenic is a public company whose shares are listed on the Athens exchange with a secondary listing on the London Stock Exchange and with American depositary receipts listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Coca-cola spans 28 countries and serves 560millions people with more than 2billion units cases of refreshing soft drinks annually. It is one of the most thriving industries in the Nigerian economy that contributes about 0.05% in turnover to gross domestic product (GDP) and its market capitalization of N900.9bn relative to GDP is estimated to be about 3.94% up from 2.01% in 2003. It takes up to 31.4% share (average) of the manufacturing sector. The values index of the industry stock tremendously increased from 32,763pts in 2003 to 133,422.3pts in 2007.
Despite this impressive profile, some firms in this industry have shut down operations as a result of high manufacturing cost created by exorbitant price of materials coupled with lack of adequate management commitment to timely funding of materials procurement (Ilori et al, 2000; Oba, 2008; Adeloye, 2010). The few surveying firms are faced with shift competition in the current market.
This has led to the measuring how material resources should various jobs or product and therefore be able to reduce material cost as well as eliminate any wastage in the value chain.
