This study aims to analyze the implementation of Total Quality Management (TQM) in improving service quality at KPUD Tani Wilis, particularly in the supply and distribution of livestock feed. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through in-depth interviews and direct observations involving cooperative management, employees, and customers. Data were analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that TQM implementation has been relatively effective, reflected through three key components: customer value strategy, organizational systems, and continuous quality improvement. Services are perceived as responsive, polite, and informative, supported by adequate delivery facilities. The main challenge lies in occasional delays in feed delivery caused by weather conditions, which affect customer perceptions of reliability. Overall, TQM contributes positively to service quality, customer satisfaction, and operational effectiveness, although further improvements in risk management and service consistency are needed to achieve optimal quality.

Customer loyalty is a crucial pillar in the banking industry, especially amidst increasingly fierce competition and rapid digital transformation. Loyalty not only reflects brand attachment but also reflects the level of customer trust and satisfaction with the services provided. This study aims to analyze the role of customer value and service quality in building customer loyalty, with customer satisfaction as an intervening variable. The study was conducted at the BRI Tabanan Branch using a quantitative approach. The research sample consisted of 383 respondents selected using the Krejcie and Morgan formula. Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using path analysis to examine the direct and indirect relationships between variables. The results show that customer value and service quality significantly influence customer satisfaction. Both variables also have a direct effect on customer loyalty, while also exerting an indirect effect through customer satisfaction as a mediating variable. In other words, increasing perceived value and service quality not only drives satisfaction but also strengthens loyalty, both directly and through the effects of satisfaction. These findings emphasize the importance of strategies to increase value and service quality as an effort to maintain loyalty amid changing customer preferences and digital disruption. For banking practitioners, the implications of this research can serve as a reference in designing more personalized, value-oriented, and technology-based service programs to increase long-term customer retention and strengthen competitiveness in an increasingly competitive market.
