- 6. Current market position With high fuel prices and a weak U.S. economy in June 2008, Honda reported a 1% sales increase while its rivals, including the Detroit Big Three and Toyota, have reported double-digit losses. Honda's sales were up almost 20 percent from the same month last year. The Civic and the Accord were in the top five list of sales. Analysts have attributed this to two main factors. First, Honda's product lineup consists of mostly small to mid-size, highly fuel- efficient vehicles. Secondly, over the last ten years, Honda has designed its factories to be flexible, in that they can be easily retooled to produce any Honda model that may be in-demand at the moment. At the 2008 Beijing Auto Show, Honda announced that they were looking to develop an entry-level brand exclusively for the Chinese market similar to Toyota's Scion brand in the USA

TQM functions on the premise that the quality of products and processes is the responsibility of everyone who is involved with the creation or consumption of the products or services offered by an organization. In other words, TQM capitalizes on the involvement of management, workforce, suppliers, and even customers, in order to meet or exceed customer expectations

- 18. Implementing quality management education In Japan, Honda offers a training curriculum divided into four courses according to in-house qualifications and the extent of individual workers' quality control responsibilities in order to improve associates' quality assurance skills. The Honda QC Basic Course (HBC), which was first offered 40 years ago, provides an example of how Honda is working to train its personnel to be leaders in improving quality.
- 20. CONCLUSION Honda operates a TQM system. Its philosophy is to push quality back to the supplier, expecting the products to arrive defect free to Honda’s defined level. But this won’t ever stop the company from checking. ―With the tolerances and the complexity of some of the components, we’ve found that some suppliers are not always able to guarantee meeting our specs – so we rely heavily on inspection. For the more critical components, particularly safety critical components, we carry out 100% inspection,‖ says Honda. Operations Director, Professor Gary Savage, adds: ―Last season Honda recorded zero stoppages due to reliability of the chassis. The TQM system clearly contributed significantly to this. Our aim now is to maintain this record as we move forward – and the system and processes will develop in order to facilitate this aim.‖
