Easy,1. Inspection,2. QC,3. QA,4. TQM,5. Six Sigma.  TQM was the most misunderstood, and likely never made the comeback it deserved. I studied and prepared papers on the subject in1995.

first was inspection about1920 s

Quality Control about1940s

Quality Assurance late1960 to1970

Six Sigma1981, but the "Zero defect" was in1960

Quality is always an element in any project and in a project it depends on how fully you comply with specification. If you need six sigma quality standard, the same should be specified in the tender.
