Total Quality Management (TQM) and the Theory of Constraints (TOC) are complementary management philosophies that enable organizations to improve quality, optimize processes, and enhance operational performance through systematic continuous improvement and constraint-focused management. TQM emphasizes organization wide quality culture, customer satisfaction, and process excellence, while TOC focuses on identifying and managing system constraints that limit organizational performance.
