The Excellence in Missouri Foundation was established in 1992 to administer the Missouri Quality Award program and to promote quality principles in business, education, government and health care throughout Missouri. Based in Jefferson City, Missouri,[1] it is a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit educational organization funded entirely by contributions from the private sector and income-generating activities. The Foundation is led by a Board of Directors, chaired by Dennis DeGroodt, and is composed of key business, education, government, and health care leaders from across the state.
The foundation provides a variety of services to assist businesses in achieving excellence in all areas of the Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence (leadership, customer focus, and process management among others) including seminars to teach concepts, such as balanced scorecards and also lessons in strategic planning.
Businesses who have taken advantage of the foundation have greatly benefited and the results show financially as well as increasing overall productivity.
To date, the Foundation has distributed over 38,000 copies of the Award Criteria, certified over 1,400 men and women as MQA Examiners, presented 51 organizations, 28 teams, and 19 individuals with Awards, and educated over 11,000 people through public offerings. In its 16th year, the Foundation anticipates much continued success.[2]
