PQI invites researchers, doctoral candidates, and practitioner-authors to submit full papers addressing the application of quality management to organizational and national performance.

The Academic Track of IQC 2026 provides a platform for researchers and practitioners to share original work that connects quality management with measurable organizational and national performance. Submissions should contribute practical or research-based insight into the conference's core performance pillars: performance drivers, performance systems, and performance improvement. Accepted papers will be presented during the Academic Session on 11 November 2026 and published in the digital Conference Proceedings issued by PQI–AASTMT.
