Abstract

The aim of this study was to identify emerging themes to build the quality concept by integrating various qualitative research results regarding quality from the perspective of weaving SMEs. The quality concept proposed in this study is an additional definition or concept with respect to the development of organizational culture for weaving SMEs. In the present study, we employed individual semi-structured interviews, with analysis based on systematic literature reviews and focus group discussion results suggesting a slightly different meaning with respect to the quality concept based on the weaver’s perspective. Interpretation was based on the information gathered in focus group discussions regarding the quality of weaving in Toraja, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), and Bali. Weaving characteristics as a cultural product alter a new concept of quality built on the cultural and economic principles and mission of woven products. The quality concept proposed in this study will help the local government as a regulator to formulate policies for the development of the weaving SME industry based on the idea of quality.
