Background of the Study
Total Quality Management (TQM) is an organizational approach that seeks to improve quality across all areas of operation by focusing on customer satisfaction, employee involvement, and continuous improvement. In the telecommunications industry, where competition is fierce and customer expectations are constantly rising, companies like MTN Nigeria have adopted TQM principles to ensure service excellence and customer loyalty. MTN Nigeria, one of the leading mobile network providers in the country, has implemented TQM practices to improve its service delivery, reduce operational inefficiencies, and ensure a high level of customer satisfaction. These practices include rigorous quality control measures, employee training, and customer feedback systems.
This study aims to investigate the impact of TQM on customer satisfaction at MTN Nigeria, Bauchi State. The research will explore how the company’s commitment to quality management influences customer perceptions, loyalty, and overall satisfaction with the services provided. By understanding this relationship, MTN Nigeria can refine its strategies to better meet customer needs and enhance competitive advantage.
