Development and validation of a total quality management model for Uganda’s local governments
The objectives of this study were to provide reliable and valid constructs of TQM and a measurement model in the context of Uganda’s local governments (LGs) for evaluation of TQM implementation process. The paper used survey‐based data from Uganda’s LGs. Data were analysed through exploratory factor...
