Abstract

Quality management system is an important element in the management of an institution or organisation with efforts to achieve the quality objectives of an institution or organisation, increase procurements, renew and enhance quality as well as increase effectiveness or change organisational vision; hence, an appropriate quality management system should be used. However, most quality management systems currently available are actually a fad. These systems are only adopted for a specific period, hence, there is not enough time for the systems or their effectiveness to be fully appreciated by the institution, as they eventually become obsolete. This is due to the emergence of new quality management systems that are more attractive and effective. Hence, this paper had suggested the halal and green concepts as the fundamental or important elements in building a quality management system so that a sustainable quality management system could be created. This suggestion is based on evidence concerning the sustainability of both these concepts through narrative studies carried out on publications found in Scopus’s electronic databases that had no limitation on years of publication. This study found that the dramatic trend in the study on halal and green and also that these concepts could become an influencing factor to make the halal-green concept an important element when building a more sustainable quality management system. Lastly, this paper had outlined factors that could make the assimilation of the halal and green elements into the quality management system more dynamic, sustainable and relevant across time.

Between the management model and the management technique terms, management model was used and recognised more in the field of quality management. This term among others was adduced in The Encyclopaedia of Business Management (Standingford, 1967), Encyclopaedia of Management (Carroll, 1973) and Production Handbook (White, 1987). Besides that, there are writers who have used the term management method in their writings. Among them were Dale and Michelon (1966), Ishikawa (1990), Torrington et al. (1985), Jones and Woodcock (1985), Murata and Harrison (1991), Vonderembse and White (1996) and Beckford (1998). Meanwhile, the International Encyclopaedia of Business and Management (1996), Finch (1976), Amstrong (1993), Ward (1995) and Abrahamson (1996) had used the term management technique, whereas al-Buraey (1985), Mohd Affandi Hassan (1992), Harding and Long (1998) and Ten Have et al. (2003) had used the term management model.

Both, al-Buraey and Hassan are Islamic management thinkers who had introduced the Islamic management model system as the Islamic Model of Administration—The 6-Ps Version) and Management with Syura.

In relation to the elaboration on the human status as a subject and khalifah of Allah, Hassan (1992: 30–33) had quoted al-Attas (1993:139–141). According to the elaboration, the human status or in this context, fellow managers as subjects of Allah are responsible to ensure the aim of life on this earth is to worship and offer servitude to Allah. Whereas, the role of a khalifah requires fellow managers to implement trust and tasks of a manager according to the wishes of Allah. The elaboration on the human status as a subject and khalifah of Allah in the context of management was done by Salleh (2000: 16–26 and 2003: 6–9).

Hassan (1992: 43–44) in his work had referred to worship as a comprehensive concept that includes whatever word or behaviour that is loved and blessed by Allah, either it is tangible or not. He quoted this definition from Ibn Taimiyyah (1982: 1–2).

It was stated in previous studies that the best management system was introduced by Frederick Taylor more than a century ago (Carroll, 1973: 577). Since then until now, the number of management systems have increased.
 
6
‘Buffet’ as stated by White (1987) referred only to specific management systems selected to be used by an organisation or institution.
 
7
This was implemented, among others, by Torrington et al. (1985), Martin and Moores (1985), Uris (1986), Amstrong (1993), Ward (1995), Harding and Long (1998) and Ten Have et al. (2003).

For example, the QCC management system was adduced, among others, by Dewar (1979), Gryna (1981), Fitzgerald (1982), Robson (1982), Ross (1982), Thompson (1982), Ingle (1982), Mohr (1983), Baird (1983), Ishikawa (1984), Crocker (1984), Dworaczek (1984), Gmelch (1984), Katzan (1985), Hutchins (1985), Berger (1986) and Udpa (1992).
