Operational & Performance Excellence
Business Performance Excellence is achieved when an organization is generating the maximum level of profitability possible given the human, financial, capital, and other resources it possesses. (Luftig, 1998) Many companies strive to be the best in their market. Most never succeed. Many of the ones that do, do so only temporarily, and subsequently lose their position through misunderstanding how they got there and what is needed to stay there. Very few, as Jim Collins has stated, are capable of going from “Good to Great.” Practical experiences of the use of the Malcolm Baldridge (MB) Model, the criteria and methodology of the American National Quality Award, are considered to be the best business performance excellence model. The model has great tools and techniques in its criteria for enhancing the overall business performance towards excellence.
