Expressing satisfaction over the accomplishment, Tata Steel Managing Director B Muthuraman said, "No other activity made us think so deeply about our business and relationships than the process of applying for the Deming prize."

"Total quality management is a fundamental way of managing business and every organisation can gain from institutionalising the culture necessary to win this prize," he added.

The Deming prize was originally designed to reward Japanese companies for their major advancements in quality improvement. At present, however, companies outside Japan are also accorded the award.
