(today worldwide, over 31000 restaurants) In addition, McDonald's opens a new restaurant every three Hours.

Training -In the next step of TQM, McDonalds puts it attention on its human resources. The objective of training their human resources is to create a balance in the overall working of employees. Thus they try to create a connection between the quality of a product and the ability of the employees.

Continuous Improvement
The quality management strategies of McDonalds for product quality improvement and employee training and development put the company on the road of continuous improvement in all its functions. Continuous improvements fulfill the needs of the

customers according to their desires or requirements and also make its products more competitive.

Customer Satisfaction
The improved quality standards, well trained employees and a continuous learning desire of McDonalds results in increased level of satisfaction of the customers. Like when the quality is improved and the personnel attending the customers is well trained and the overall service environment is improved then there is no room left for customer dis-satisfaction.

Employee Involvement
the McDonalds Legal Department initiated a pro bono program in 2000.Through this program, McDonalds works with numerous public service organizations to provide legal assistance to lowincome individuals and to help elementary and secondary students from diverse backgrounds develop the skills, knowledge and attitudes necessary to serve their communities as active, responsible citizens. In January 2010, McDonalds launched a more formalized corporate volunteer program that includes an online volunteerism management and tracking tool developed in partnership with Volunteer Match, group volunteer activities and incentives such as a monthly raffle for a donation to the winning volunteers charity of choice. Participation rates among Home Office employees continue to rise and currently stand at almost 35% (2011).

Supply Chain Management

These strategies determine what is to be made an d w h a t i s t o b e p u r c h a s e d . S o McDonalds follow these strategies and have a just-in-time inventory system. Which means that the orders are placed as the raw material comes to near finish. McDonalds maintain no inventory levels for perishable goods. Suppliers 1= the major suppliers of McDonalds in Pakistan are as follows: 2= Dawn Breads for Buns 3= Choudhry Dairy Limited for dairy products 4= Walls Ice Cream 5= Coca-Cola Ltd. for drinks 6= Packages for packing Supplier power is high in this industry because there is lesser number of suppliers and customers can not switch to other brands because each brand has created its own image in consumer minds, thats why consumer cannot switch to other brands. On the other hand, McDonald has established long term relations with its suppliers because it purchases in large volume, in this way the supplier power is reduced and McDonald purchases its supplies on the low price basis and it avails the benefits of economies of scale. And the brand offered by the supplier is not differentiated so it makes easy for McDonald to switch to another supplier and decreases the suppliers power. The only factor that gives some power to supplier is the switching costs for McDonald's if it goes to any new supplier it will have to abolish old arrangements and develop new ones.

Measuring performance
The main metrics we use to measure Company performance for determining payouts for our executives include our stock price; earnings per share or EPS; return on total assets; and Brand McDonalds operating income, which is our operating income from all Company-operated and franchised restaurants excluding those not operated under McDonalds brand name. With the exception of stock price and return on total assets, these metrics are expressed in constant currency to exclude the period-to-period effects of currency translation. Management reviews and analyzes business results in constant currencies and bases compensation decisions on these results because we believe results expressed in constant currency better reflect underlying business trends. In evaluating the individual performance of our named executive officers when determining annual base salary, annual cash incentives and annual grants of equity-based compensation, we consider a number of qualitative factors which emphasize sustained levels of strong performance. The primary factor is results achieved (including in years prior to the year of the salary review). We also measure individual performance from various perspectives that include setting and achieving goals that are in line with McDonalds strategic focus. For example, our CEOs performance in 2006 was evaluated taking into account his three performance priorities: sustainable profitable growth; progress in our balanced active lifestyles initiatives; and talent management.

Systems and processes are only part of the quality equation, and dedicated people are the key. Around the world, McDonalds knows how its products are handled and prepared. McDonalds employees are trained to prepare and present meals according to very specific procedures that are strictly enforced. For example, a ten-minute holding time for sandwiches ensures maximum quality and freshness to each customer. McDonalds even designs our restaurants to meet the ultimate in hygiene specifications, including hand-washing procedures. In addition, the staff is also trained to maintain the right procedures, food quality and safety, especially in the preparation and handling of raw and cooked products.
