TQM & Energy Management TQM – Total Quality Management TQM - an integrated approach to operating a facility - Energy cost control should be part of overall TQM program
TQM - based on principle that front -line employees
should have authority to make changes and other decisions at the lowest operating levels of a facility - Energy management is a natural part of TQM; if employees have some training in energy management, they can make correct energy decisions
