Through an in-depth literature review, eight criteria were identified. These criteria were then divided into 32 sub-criteria.

An empirical analysis of the criteria of each stage using the fuzzy AHP methodology and the expert opinion of quality management are used to evaluate the percent weightings of the criteria and sub-criteria that are synonymous with TQM implementation.
