Section 41-9-941Declaration of findings. The Legislature hereby finds as follows: (1) The state and federal governments are facing unprecedented demands for government services in a time of proration, national deficit spending, increasing national debt, a highly competitive world economy, and the increasing disillusionment on the part of the public with the ability of the governments to adequately meet the needs. (2) Citizens want their governments, state and federal, to be more responsive to their needs, by operating at a more personal level with greater efficiency, higher performance, and lower cost. (3) Total Quality, a structured management approach first used in private industry, has proven to increase profitability and marketshare, decrease costs, increase employee satisfaction, and decrease employee turnover. (4) Early efforts to implement Total Quality within the federal government have produced favorable results; in fact, it is believed that Total Quality offers one of the greatest hopes for improving government services, managing the diverse demands of Alabama's government, and optimizing the results of state tax dollar expenditures. (5) The application of Total Quality principles to Alabama government must begin with educating state government officials about Total Quality; there has been no established legislative group to educate the full Legislature and the service and regulatory departments of state government about the principles and application of Total Quality. (6) There is a need for a legislative commission to examine Total Quality and its applications to state government. (Acts 1994, No. 94-597, p. 1106, §2.)
