The pursuit of quality is about achieving excellence in all facets of a particular activity, be it business, culture, sport, health, education or government. It involves firms, organisations and individuals having a clear and coherent vision of their goals and strategies. It also involves strong organisational leadership and positive management attitudes to both workforce and customer alike.

The various Australian Organisation for Quality branches are state registered not-for-profit, membership-based organisations dedicated to encouraging and assisting the pursuit of quality in both the public and private sectors through the provision of workshops, seminars and nationally recognised training programmes.

The Australian Organisation for Quality is served in each State through a State body. There is an office in New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia.
