The article examines the essence and significance of the quality management system in the process of ensuring the quality and safety of agri-food products, considers the main aspects and prerequisites for its introduction on Ukrainian enterprises in the context of the implementation of the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the European Union. The legal and regulatory documents governing the safety of agri-food products, the level of their harmonization in Ukraine and implementation by Ukrainian operators of the agri-food market are analyzed. It was revealed that mainly large enterprises are currently implementing a quality management system, which is primarily associated with additional costs for its implementation. Attention is focused on the necessity to comply with the requirements of ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems, ISO 22000 Food Safety Management Systems, as well as the principles of the International System for Hazard Analysis and Control at Critical Points of HACCP to increase the competitiveness of agricultural and food products in the domestic and foreign markets and ensure it sustainable quality. The basic requirements of food product standards have been introduced. The dynamics of the development of certification processes at Ukrainian enterprises is traced, in particular, by the number of received quality certificates of the ISO group in Ukraine. General economic and specific reasons that hinder the growth of the quality and safety of agrі-food products at Ukrainian enterprises were identified, including: low level of technological equipment and slow development of innovative processes; imperfection of the domestic regulatory framework in the field of product quality regulation; significant price disparity and the presence of a large number of intermediaries in the chain from the producer of raw materials to the customer etc. A quality management system is proposed, which is a socio-ecological and economic system and combines a well-coordinated interaction of various types of quality management subsystems.

An integrated management system encompasses all management and assessment activities. The organizational structure of the Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BfS) quality management system is able to merge existing and future requirements. In this context the BfS management system encompasses quality management and radiation protection requirements as well as safety management, mining requirements and those of testing and calibration laboratories. Its structure allows the integration of function-specific management systems as well as specific requirements. The quality management system has taken into account the existing structure of documents to improve acceptability for the extended approach. Integrating management systems should enhance managerial and operational effectiveness. Whether or not this goal can or has been achieved is still a lingering question. A well-proven method to assess the effectiveness of any management system is auditing. Audits are designed to determine adequate compliance with applicable standards and guidelines. Moreover, they can and should be instrumental in identifying problem areas and potential improvements, along with corrective and preventive actions.

This paper presents the results of research carried out in companies engaged in the production and distribution of bakery products, which relate to the advantages, disadvantages and costs of implementing the system for quality and food safety management. In focused companies, a quality and food safety management system has been applied, which, after development, has been certified by independent certification bodies. The methodology for collecting data using the Google questionnaire that was created and through which the data from the surveyed companies was obtained. The highest initial costs during the introduction of quality and food safety management systems relate to the elucidation of infrastructure deficiencies (66.6% of surveyed enterprises) and consulting services (33.3% of surveyed enterprises). A key advantage of establishing a company's quality management system is to improve document management and product quality improvement (4.55). The applied quality management systems and food safety systems offer companies numerous advantages, savings in business and represent a model by which applications and other companies can improve their own performance. Determining system efficiency methodologically using google questionnaires is a very simple and useful tool that can be used for similar research with minimal knowledge of online programming techniques.

Safety Risks

In order to achieve a certain level of food production, it is necessary to manage its quality and safety. Currently, the quality management system based on the principles of HACCP is widely recognized and is the only method for ensuring food security in all developed countries. The ultimate goal of this system is to eliminate or reduce any food safety risks by preventing them. During the research, the main, auxiliary raw materials and the finished product were identified; flowcharts for the production of an enriched whey drink were developed. On the basis of the developed block diagrams, an analysis of microbiological, chemical, physical and qualitative hazards was carried out, it was determined which of the hazardous factors are the most critical, can harm health and must be eliminated or reduced to acceptable levels. Based on the analysis of significant hazards using the Decision Tree algorithm, two critical control points (pasteurization and cooling) were established. Measures for the management of critical control points are established in the HACCP plan, which reflects all CCPs of the production process of the research object and actions for monitoring and managing them. The introduction of elements of a food safety management system into practice contributes to the production of safe products of appropriate quality in compliance with applicable requirements and standards.

The Relationship

This research aims to analyze the moderating effects of profitability and leverage on the relationship between the quality management system and eco-efficiency toward the firm’s performance. The research sample consists of 75 firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange as of 2017. Data concerning eco-efficiency and the quality management system are collected from the firm's annual report. This research utilizes a multiple linear regression model. The result shows that eco-efficiency and quality management system do not affect the firm’s performance. Profitability has a negative and significant moderating effect on the relationship between eco-efficiency toward the firm’s performance. Further, the moderating variable also positively and significantly moderates the relationship between the quality management system and the firm's performance. Leverage, on the other hand, is found to have no moderating effect on the relationship between eco-efficiency and quality management systems toward the firm's performance.  This study contributes and extends previous research by exploring eco-efficiency and quality management systems toward the firm’s performance simultaneously. Besides, it also examines the moderating relation of profitability and leverage in relationship with eco-efficiency and quality management system toward a firm's performance by using the sample from all firms which are listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange and have implemented the system.

Basic Hypothesis

In a modern global economy, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have inviolable importance and inclusion in the overall social development and economic growth. Regarding the high share of SMEs in the total number of companies, given the number of employees and the share in export orientation, the question of SMEs existence, as well as their market share and competitiveness in the global environment, represents prime relevance to any national economy. Therefore, the issue of quality becomes a critical component of achieving competitiveness in delivering products and services to their consumers (customers.) Due to this extremely delicate issue, each company establishes and implements a systematic process relationship or a quality management system as a part of its general management mechanism. This is a reason for SMEs management to strategically decide on the challenges of introducing a quality management system; thus, to improve their competitiveness on the domestic and foreign markets, which is a very demanding, exhaustive and time absorbing process requiring detailed preparation and collective engagement. The basic reasons for applying a quality management system are apostrophised in any business objectives – improving business processes, product quality and services, increasing spending as a factor of developing higher market share, better reputation (image) and sustainable business results. Due to the measurable quantitative and qualitative attributes and features that can significantly enhance the introduction of quality management systems into practice of SMEs, numerous studies have been carried out, some of which are conducted within the last two decades. For the authors, this was an initiative to conduct a survey, within this paper, in the Primorsko-goranska county (Croatia) during the month of July 2018, in which a number of SMEs were analysed in the crucial areas of quality management systems. The authors’ objective was to assess the viability of SMEs regarding their application of a quality management system. The basic hypothesis was that introducing quality management systems into SMEs contributes to their foreign competitiveness i.e. strengthening their export activity in general. Beside positive outputs of applying quality management, the authors’ research presented in this paper also established some relatively high and negative quantifications in relation to the application of the quality management system. Such outcomes represent justified reasons for future scientific research in this area.
