The Enterprise Excellence Scheme is built upon globally recognized principles of organizational excellence and aligns closely with international business excellence frameworks such as the EFQM Excellence Model and the Baldrige Performance Excellence Framework. This alignment ensures that participants not only improve their internal operations but also meet international standards of performance and management.
One major point of alignment is the focus on holistic evaluation. Like its international counterparts, the
Enterprise Excellence Scheme assesses organizations across multiple dimensions, including leadership, strategy, people, processes, and results. This ensures a comprehensive view of performance, rather than isolated or fragmented assessments.
Another shared feature is the emphasis on customer and stakeholder value. The scheme encourages organizations to prioritize long-term value creation and customer satisfaction—an essential principle in both the EFQM and Baldrige models. This global perspective helps companies develop systems that are responsive to stakeholder needs, no matter where they operate.
The Enterprise Excellence Scheme also emphasizes continuous learning and innovation, key themes in international frameworks. Organizations are encouraged to track progress, measure outcomes, and adapt to change. This focus supports sustainable growth and aligns well with global best practices.
Benchmarking is another tool that reinforces the connection with international standards. Companies in the scheme are encouraged to compare their performance with world-class organizations. This global benchmarking drives competitiveness and opens up opportunities for international partnerships.
By aligning with international excellence models, the Enterprise Excellence Scheme not only raises local standards but also prepares businesses to compete and collaborate on a global stage. It acts as a bridge between domestic performance goals and international recognition.
