The idea of business process-focused improvement has been with us for many years. Many speculate that it is as old as the total quality management movement, which began in Japan in the 1950s. Some think the idea is much older, dating back to the time of the Pharaohs of Egypt.

I recently read a paper about Total Quality Management (TQM). In seven pages of text the term "Total Quality Management" or the acronym "TQM" was repeated 152 times. In addition, the author employed repeated usage of the word "quality," by itself or in terms that border upon becoming cliches. Further, the paper described a dedicated infrastructure piled on a regular organization in the form of a special office and various committees. Barely afloat amid the promotion of TQM, per se, was the simple truth, "quality improvement comes from process improvement."
