For Organizations: The Minnesota Quality Award
 Although
the primary goal of our assessment is learning and improvement,
we also recognize levels of performance excellence to eligible
organizations through the Minnesota Quality Award.
Established in 1991, the Minnesota Quality Award is given to
organizations that successfully complete a full assessment using
either narrative-based or survey-based approach. Since 1991, 105 organizations have been recognized (listed below). We have four
Award levels, intended to recognize organizations at the appropriate
stage of their improvement journey:
Commitment
Organizations
recognized at this level have demonstrated commitment to self-assessment
as a catalyst for improvement and a means of promoting organizational
excellence. They are in the early stages of developing and implementing
approaches to address criteria requirements and obtaining results.
Advancement
Organizations
recognized at this level have demonstrated progress in building
and deploying systematic approaches responsive to the basic
requirements of the criteria. Approaches for leadership, strategic
planning, and customer and market focus are fully systematic,
and the organization is demonstrating many good results.
Achievement
Organizations
recognized at this level have established sound, effective approaches
responsive to the overall requirements of the criteria. They
are generally aligned throughout the organization and demonstrate
some evaluation and refinement. They
also demonstrate good results and trends for most areas important
to their business requirements, with no major faults.
Excellence
Organizations
recognized at this highest level have demonstrated organizational
excellence relative to the multiple requirements of the criteria.
These organizations show refined, fully deployed, systematic
approaches, with positive trends in all key measures and results.
They are well integrated and can serve as national and global
role models.
Organizations are reconized at a public event the spring following their application. The event is open to the public, and offers a forum for celebration, networking, and knowledge sharing.
If you would like to learn more about the Criteria, our assessment
process, or the Minnesota Quality Award, please contact us or visit other parts of this website. We
hope we can help you on your improvement journey.
