    • Abstract:
      The article examines the contemporary quality assurance and total quality management (TQM) in the U.S. It mentions the creation of the core concept for the implementation of TQM by W. Edwards Deming, author of the book "Out of the Crisis," and the establishment of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Y14.5.1 subcommittee to develop algorithms for measurements. It discusses the need for geometric dimensioning and proposes the adoption of the Design Quality Management (DQM).
