The Chartered Quality Institute, founded in 1919, is the professional
institute for quality practitioners. The CQI is the custodian of the UK
body of quality knowledge and holds no brief for any particular
management system model but promotes the concept that the effective
management of quality adds value and underpins an organisation's
competitiveness. We encourage organisations to think of quality in terms
of 'innovation' and 'care'; innovation of products and services and the
processes that deliver them and care for our customers, our personnel,
the society in which we operate; our environment and the developing
world. Care even extends to care for our planet and the use of
sustainable processes to produce and deliver our products or services.
