In honour of W Edwards Deming, the Japanese Union of Scientists and Engineers (JUSE) set up the Deming Prize in 1951. It recognises both individuals for their contributions to Total Quality Management (TQM) and businesses that have successfully implemented TQM.

The award focuses on industrial manufacturing in a standard and repetitive environment. The TQM philosophy adoption can be used to scale, improve or sustain partial or complete business operations. If a business achieves passing points or higher, it will be awarded the Deming Prize. Potential recipients of the prize can vary each year based on the score.

The Deming Prize and Deming Grand Prize have the toughest award criteria compared to EFQM and MBNQA. In the past 20 years, more than 50 Indian organisations have implemented TQM and attained esteemed global recognition.
