General principles in designing the programme
Definition of quality – in case of proper management, each tourism enterprise that has selected the right target group, succeeds in meeting and exceeding customer expectations with its service, i.e. offering quality.
The Estonian Tourism Quality Programme (ETQP) is based on the philosophy of total quality management (TQM) and organizational excellence
(the European Quality Award).
![Page 5: Enterprise Estonia Estonian Tourist Board Kerli Hallikmäe 6. Sept. 2005](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081802/56649ee65503460f94bf7148/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
General principles in designing the programme
The model of the ETQP is tourism and service-
specific, in comparison with European Quality Award,
it is simple and suitable mainly for SMEs.
The emphasis of the model of the ETQP is on the
customer-centred development.
ETQP is a tool for businesses, which gives practical
help for starting with the quality management system.

Some conclusions from the pilot phase of the programme
13 businesses from 2 counties of Estonia
10 advisers were trained to help businesses during the
12 months.
External assessment was done by 15 assessors, who
assessed the businesses in pairs.
Decisions were done by the commission:
3 businesses got the recognition for 2 years
6 businesses got the recognition for 1 year

Comments from the pilot project businesses “Participating in ETQP helped us to form a stronger team inside
the organisation. Now every person in the business knows why
we exist and where we want to go.”
“Customer journey analysis is a simple tool, which made us to
think like our customer and brought up things about which we
have never thought about.”
“Self assessment was so difficult and took so much time, that I
got an inflammation of the sciatic nerve.”
“External assessment was very useful, its very helpful when a
person outside of the business looks at Your company and
gives some hints, what to do better.

Principles of recognition
A business has to be committed to the quality development and
customer-centred approach. They are evidenced by:
the system of getting and analyzing customer feedback is integrated
into the organization's operations
the average evaluation score of the self-assessment criterion "The
supporting processes of the customer journey" has to be at least “2”
(i.e. there is clear evidence that the planned approaches have been
implemented);
the average evaluation score of the self-assessment criterion
"Customer-related results" has to be at least “2” (i.e. there is clear
evidence that the planned approaches have enabled the organization
to achieve the results);
the implementation of the selected improvement area
