KEYWORDS: Total Quality Management, company performance, employee empowerment
I. INTRODUCTION
TQM orIntegrated quality management is a concept of improvements carried out continuously and involve all the elements as well as employees at every level of the organization in order to achieve the best quality through process management (Vouzaz and Kafetzopoulos, 2014). In accordance with the definition of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), TQM is a management approach to an organization that is focused on quality and based on the participation of all its members that aims to achieve long-term success through customer satisfaction and benefit of all members of the organization (Saleh et al , 2016). The benefits of implementing Total Quality Management is to improve the overall quality in the company in order to increase revenues or profits from the company through the performance of its employees. (Efendi and Kastawan, 2018).
Success or failure of efforts to improve the quality of a company's products is heavily effect by human resources.
Employees can gain work experience and skills to apply them in place at the same time they work. Companies with a high level of labor productivity means it will carry out the production process at a high level as well, and therefore the employee empowerment is an important factor in the implementation of TQM (Chairany, 2014).

Employees can gain work experience and skills to apply them in place at the same time they work. Companies with a high level of labor productivity means it will carry out the production process at a high level as well, and therefore the employee empowerment is an important factor in the implementation of TQM (Chairany, 2014).
Empowerment is giving them responsibility and authority to employees to work to take decisions on all product development and decision-making (Marina and Joaquin, 2017). Employee empowerment is very important and provides more opportunities for employees to develop creativity, flexibility and autonomy on the job.
Empowerment of employees will make someone feel important, therefore empowering employees also can strengthen the level of performance of the company TQM (Psomas and Jiju, 2017).
The hospitality industry is an industry that continues to develop hotels in Indonesia, especially in Bali. Until now, the hospitality industry has increased very significantly, supported by the ease of finding the hotel through internet access and hotel prices more affordable is very influential for businesses of hospitality services.
Customers prefer the quality and the facilities offered and which has an affordable price. The unique characteristics of products whose quality hotel services specified by the customer, such as the time responsiveness of the company when there is a problem / complaint, as well as the need for a direct connection

between employees and customers demanding hospitality service companies in particular need to improve the quality and make continuous improvements.Previous research had mixed results and inconsistency in the research conducted by Mehta et al. (2014), which examines the implementation of TQM in the education system in India to find results that TQM plays an important role in improving quality. Research Talib et al. (2013) who studied the practice of TQM in service companies in India also found that TQM shows a positive relationship to the quality of performance. This is different to the research conducted by Bara et al. (2017), which examines the effect of TQM on organizational performance to find results that focus on the customer and teamwork do not have a significant effect on the performance of the organization and Lamato et al. (2017) find results where the Total Quality Management which consists of, Education and Training, and Employee Involvement and Empowerment, does not effect the performance of the organization. Therefore, further research is needed.
Based on their experiences to and research gap on the results of previous empirical research, it will be examined again on the effect of the variable TQM Focus on customer, obsession on quality and team work on company performance. Variable Focus on customer used more due to the characteristics berorientsi business services to customers. While variable obsession with quality and teamwork are used for their inconsistent results in previous studies that need further research. Employee involvement and empowerment are essential in the implementation of Total Quality Management. Employee empowerment brings two main benefits, namely to improve the planning and decision-making, and increase the sense of ownership and responsibility of employees,
II. LITERATURE AND HYPOTHESIS DEVELOPMENT
Customer focus is a very important thing that needs to be done by the company to further give a good impression to the customer so that the customer was satisfied. Provide intensive services is the way it should be done so customers know more about the product or service being marketed so that it will cause a sense of want to buy and complacency in the minds of customers (Nasution, 2015: 18). Widjaja (2014) in his research found the variable focus on the customer have a significant effect on the performance of the company, it is in line with research Androwis et al (2018), Dauhan (2014), and Al-Damen (2017) who found that focusing on the customer's positive effect on company performance, so that the higher level of focus on the customer, the higher the performance of the company.
H1: Focus on the customer has a positive and significant effect on the performance of the company
The quality of products or services good, it will give a good impression on customers anyway (Nasution, 2015:
18). Quality companies should be improved so that the products or services offered are of good quality and can meet customer expectations or desires (Wuryanti, 2013). Research Jimenez et al. (2015), Bara et al. (2017), and Dubey et al. (2015) which states that the obsession with the quality of the effect on customer satisfaction. So the greater the obsession with quality, the higher the performance of his company. Based on the description above can be formulated hypotheses as follows:
H2: The obsession with quality and its significant positive effect on customer satisfaction.
Teamwork is a form of work in groups and are complementary to the skills each - each and are committed to achieving a common goal which is to make customers feel satisfied. With the teamwork of employees will be easier to do his job than do it themselves. Research conducted Psomas and Jiju (2017) found results that teamwork significant effect on the performance of the company. This is similar to research Saputra (2014), Sari and Kusuma (2018) and, Purba and Rica (2014), has been examined previously and stated that teamwork effect company performance. Based on the above research results, the hypothesis can be put forward in this study is, H3: Teamwork positive and significant effect on company performance
Empowerment and motivation is a tool that the company as a stimulus to improve employee performance.
Employees will remove all the potential that exists within him through empowerment and motivation to improve the performance of the work. Good employee performance will effect the productivity of the company (Heizer, 2015). Previous work by Alvin et al (2014), Saputra and Fermayanti (2019) found that empowerment employees positive and significant effect on the performance of the company, then the hypothesis is obtained as follows.
H4: Employee Empowerment positive and significant effect on company performance.
Employee empowerment can be interpreted as a significant employee involvement. Employee empowerment is not just to provide input but also pay attention to, consider, and act on that feedback (Tjiptono and Diana, 2003:
128). Research conducted Dubey et al. (2015), Myediyana et al. (2014)), has been examined previously and stated that the Employee Empowerment strengthen the application of Total Quality Management that focus on

customers in the company. Based on the above research results, the hypothesis can be put forward in this study are:H5: Employee Empowerment Focus on customer strengthen the effect of company performance.
Organizations that implement employee engagement and empowerment harusalah provide opportunities for employees to develop and perform optimally (Heizer, 2015). Employee empowerment will foster a sense of having companies that appear on individual initiative to make improvements on an ongoing basis. Myediyana et al. (2014) and Mosadegrhad (2015), has been examined previously and stated that the Employee Empowerment strengthen the application of Total Quality Management is bsesi on quality. Based on the above research results, the hypothesis can be put forward in this study are:
H6: Employee Empowerment obsession strengthen the effect of quality to company performance
In the empowerment of employees, the company tried to improve the team's expertise and train employees to master their own (self-control). This makes the employees will be easier to work in a group, where it can have an effect on improving employee performance, which in turn will have a positive effect on the performance of the company (Nasution, 2015: 18). Research by Islami (2017), has been examined previously and stated that the Employee Empowerment strengthen the application of TQM is teamwork in the company. Based on the results of the above study, it can be formulated hypotheses:
H7: Employee Empowerment Teamwork strengthens effect on company performance.
III. RESEARCH METHODS
The study design used in this study is a quantitative approach in the form of causal intended to find out the relationship between TQM implementation on company performance. This research was conducted at Bumi Ayu Bungalows located in the Sanur area of Denpasar. This location was chosen because the company there is a problem decline pertahunya hotel room occupancy rate. The object of research is the object studied and analyzed. In this study, the scope of the research object was applied in accordance with the problems to be studied is the effect of Total Quality Management to company performance.
Sampling as the process of choosing a sufficient number of elements of the population, so the study of samples and understanding of the nature and characteristics of the population elements. The number of samples in this study was determined by consideration of the number of employees Bumi Ayu Bungalows in 2019 was 56 people. Then the number of samples taken using saturated sample is of all employees Bumi Ayu Bungalows, amounting to 56 people. Samples saturated sampling technique which makes all members of the population as a sample. The research data was obtained by the method of distribution of the questionnaire directly to the employee which contains a list of statements regarding the implementation of TQM, the performance of the company and peberdayaan employees.
This study used a technique Moderated Regression Analysis. According Ghozali (2006) test interaction is often called the Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) is a specialized application of linear regression in the regression equation which contains elements of the interaction between one or more independent variables on the dependent variable. To test the effect of the application of TQM (X) on Company Performance (Y) which is moderated by the use of employee empowerment Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). Moderated Regression Analysis is expressed in the form of a model equation as follows:
Z = α + β1X β2Y + β3 X + Y + e Information:
Z = Employee empowerment a = Constant
β1, β2, β3 = Regression Coefficients X = Total Quality Management Y = Corporate Performance
│X - Y│ = Interactions between Total Quality Management and Kinerj perusahaam measured by the absolute value of the difference between X and Y.

b. If X1 (focus on the customer) increased by 1 unit assuming obsession with quality, teamwork, and empowerment of employees are considered permanent, firm performance will increase by 0,138 units.
c. When X2 (obsessions quality) increased by 1 unit assuming a focus on customers, teamwork, and empowerment of employees are considered permanent, firm performance will increase by 0.079 units.
d. If X3 (teamwork) has increased by 1 unit assuming a focus on customer, obsession with quality, and employee empowerment is considered permanent, firm performance will increase by 0,100 units.
e. If Z (empowerment of employees) increased by 1 unit assuming a focus on customer, obsession with quality, and teamwork are considered permanent, firm performance will increase by 0.074 units.
f. If X1Z (focus on customers by empowering employees) has increased by 1 unit assuming quality obsession, and teamwork are considered permanent, firm performance will increase by 0.002 units.
g. If X2Z (obsessions quality by empowering employees) has increased by 1 unit with the assumption of customer focus and teamwork are considered permanent, firm performance will increase by 0.001 units.
h. If X3Z (teamwork with the empowerment of employees) increased by 1 unit assuming a focus on customers and quality obsession is considered permanent, firm performance will increase by 0.001 units
Coefficient of Determination
Based on the value of R2 can be determined what percentage of the dependent variable can be explained by the independent variable, while the rest effect or explained by other variables not included in the research model. Adjusted R2 value can go up or down when the independent variable is added to the model.

Based on Table 3 the effect of independent variables on the dependent variable indicated by the determination of the total (Adjused R Square) of 0.891 means that a variation of 89.1% focus on customer, obsession with quality, and teamwork effect the performance of the company while the remaining 10, 9% is explained by factors or other variables that are not incorporated into the model
Feasibility Model (Test F)
Test the feasibility of the model is measured by the test results F. criteria used is the significance of F> Alpha (α
= 0.05), the regression models were inappropriately used to predict the effects of independent variables, but when the significance of F ≤ Alpha (α = 0.05) then regression models have met the eligibility requirements regression model.

Based on Table 4, we can see significant value of 0.000 is less than 0.05 (0.000 <0.05) so that the model in this study feasible or independent variable able to explain the dependent variable, in other words, the independent variables simultaneously or with an effect on the dependent variable.
Hypothesis test (t test)
The statistical test t basically shows how far the effect of the independent variables individually in explaining the dependent variable (Ghozali, 2011: 98). T test can be done by looking at the probability of significance of t respectively contained in the output variable regression analysis using SPSS. If the significance probability value t is smaller than 0.05, then H0 rejected and H1, which means that there is a strong effect between independent variables and the dependent variable.
