Based on the research results, a thorough analysis of the current regulatory framework for quality management systems in accordance with international standards ISO 9000 series in Ukraine was conducted, which became the methodological basis for the research. The theoretical foundations and practical aspects of the formation of quality management and the patterns of development of key concepts, particularly TQM, which, combined with the requirements of ISO 9000, contributed to the formation of integrated quality management systems, were analysed.
