The general success factors across organizations (unspecified) were found to include Employee Education/Training, Top Management Commitment, Project Selection, Employee Involvement/Communication, and Project Management/Leadership. For the large enterprises, the following factors were identified: Project Selection, Alignment with Customer Requirements, Employee Education/Training, Senior Management Commitment, Use of Quality Tools, and Visible Cost Saving.
