Purpose Quality management is gradually becoming an area of interest among management accounting practitioners and scholars because of its significant effects on performance and increasing adoption by organizations. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore the relationships between these two broad disciplines and provide guidelines for their joint consideration. Design/methodology/approach Two specific management innovations are analyzed in detail: strategic management accounting (SMA) and ISO 9000 quality management system (QMS). Such an analysis includes a literature review of both frameworks, the identification of benefits associated with their simultaneous application and the design of a comprehensive model integrating their individual principles. Findings It is concluded that these management schemes are compatible and complementary from a theoretical standpoint; and that, therefore, their combined implementation might help organizations improve overall performance. It is also argued here that their use in conjunction could facilitate the spread of SMA techniques and the full exploitation of QMSs. Originality/value A new management system proposing the incorporation of SMA tools into traditional QMSs is introduced, and some recommendations for its practical use are presented.

The paper deals with the peculiarities of the formation of strategic management accounting as accounting and analytical support for adopting strategic managerial decisions. The change in economic realities naturally requires the introduction of modern management technologies that it is impossible without the development of relevant accounting and analytical provision, including focusing, processing and submission of accounting and analytical information to adopt strategic decisions. The purpose of the paper is to determine the role of strategic management accounting in the enterprise information space. The problems of the functioning of strategic management accounting in Ukrainian enterprises are determined: the delimitation of analytical and accounting functions, a one-sided vision of the problem of the methodology of strategic management accounting only as a set of accounting procedures, beyond the connection with analytical functions leads to a decrease in the effectiveness of strategic management accounting and separation from intra-production management. Expert analysis is carried out in questioning two groups of respondents (managers and stakeholders) on an existing system of strategic management accounting as an information platform of trading enterprises. The results of the study confirm that in most such companies, there is a lack of or insatiable use of strategic management accounting as an information platform for strategic management. The development of a strategic approach in accounting practice determines the expansion of the accounting, analytical and control instrument for the formation of information when making strategic management decisions. The components of the management function are analyzed: strategic analysis, strategic monitoring, strategic control. The prospects for further research are determined: the choice of methods and tools for strategic management accounting in the management system of a trading enterprise, especially for the needs of strategic analysis, strategic monitoring and control.
