Correct Answer: A

Total Quality Management (TQM) focuses on continuous improvement, customer satisfaction, and systematic problem-solving. It emphasizes quality over quantity, teamwork, and long-term success rather than just meeting deadlines or completing a set number of projects.

Quality management should aim for the enhancement of processes and performance through comprehensive measures, not just numerical outputs.
