Bu nedenle şirketler, bu felsefeyi tüm işletme süreçlerinde profesyonelce uygulayabilmelidir. TKY, tüm iş süreçlerinde, maliyetlerin ve hataların azaltıldığı, müşteri memnuniyetinin sağlandığı, işçilerin karar alma süreçlerine dahil edildiği, eğitimin artırıldığı bir felsefe olarak ifade edilmektedir. Ancak, Türkiye’deki bazı firmalar TKY felsefesini tam olarak uygulayamamaktadırlar. Dolayısıyla birçok firmanın bu felsefedeki amaçlarını gerçekleştirmede bazı eksiklileri olduğu söylenebilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, TKY’nin felsefesini, tarihsel gelişimini, dünya ve Türkiye’deki bazı uygulamalarını belirtmek ve Kalekim firmasının TKY uygulamalarını analiz etmektir.
