This paper examines the important features of Total quality Management and its relative importance and its impact on manufacturing. TQM variables are identified for effective implementation with example. There has been particular interest of quality in manufacturing to avoid delays and save time. By the use of various types of quality tools, production becomes simple and if implemented will satisfy the needs of the industry to achieve its objectives. In this paper TQM is explained and integrated methodology is developed for better project assessment. Due to increased competition, the Indian industry has started to adapt the Total quality management to improve the quality of their products. It is embedded in each unit of the work system (technology and people), thus problem - solving and decision making skills changes and allows people to take corrective action, in order to deliver a product or service to satisfy the needs of the customer. It is the time for industries to concentrate on customer satisfaction with a focus on understanding customer needs and expectations. It also analyses the present situation in industry and presents a suitable model that can be incorporated for industries
