The term Quality management has a specific meaning within many business sectors. This specific definition, which does not aim to assure 'good quality' by the more general definition (but rather to ensure that an organisation or product is consistent), can be considered to have four main components: quality planning, quality control, quality assurance and quality improvement. Quality management is focused not only on product/service quality, but also the means to achieve it. Quality management therefore uses quality assurance and control of processes as well as products to achieve more consistent quality.
What does it mean?
Management systems are needed in all areas of activity, whether large or small businesses, manufacturing, service or public sector. A good QMS will: • Set direction and meet customers’ expectations • Improve process control • Reduce wastage • Lower costs • Increase market share • Facilitate training • Involve staff
Why a QMS?
Why a QMS in Maroc Meteo ?
Ensure the public service Better customers satisfaction
Improve decision and management processes.
Strengthen managerial capabilities. Improve business processes
with better efficiency.
The benefits of a QMS: A fully documented QMS will ensure that two important requirements are met: • The customers’ requirements – confidence in the ability of the organisation to deliver the desired product and service consistently meeting their needs and expectations. • The organisation’s requirements – both internally and externally, are at an optimum cost with efficient use of the available resources – materials, human, technology and information.
Why a QMS in Maroc Meteo ?
1- Create a Steering committee & Choose a consultant body. 2- Undertake training : about QMS concepts 3- Clarify the mission and the vision of DMN:
Introduce a quality policy and Objectives
4- Self-Evaluation or Gap analysis:
Identify strengths and areas for improvement Develop an action plan
5- Description and formalization of the identified processes
6- Verification and Validation of documents produced
7- Restitution for general validation

Implementation of processes (DO)
• Trainings for the staff (to become aware) - Communicate about the QMS and the formalization of the processes (benefit of all stakeholders)
- Share and make available all the documents to the staff at all levels: headquarter, regional and station.
• Implement the monitoring indicators for process steering
• Standardize records and coding

Validity Valid data are considered accurate: They measure what they are intended to measure.
Reliability The data are measured and collected consistently; definitions and methodologies are the same over time.
Completeness Completely inclusive: the DMS represents the complete list of eligible names and not a fraction of the list.
Precision The data have sufficient detail; in this case the “accuracy” of the data refers to the fineness of measurement units.
Timeliness Data are up-to-date (current), and information is available on time; the DMS produces reports under deadline.
Integrity The data are protected from deliberate bias or manipulation for political or personal reasons.
