Developing a framework to apply Total Quality Management concepts to land administration: the case of Islamic Republic of Pakistan
Evaluation and assessment of land administration system (LAS) has been getting more attention over the last few years. Different assessment approaches have been tried across land administration systems at international level to assess the performance of these systems, but the attention is given to only those parameters which are common to all these systems.
