model of the Baldrige Award can be used to assess management systems and identify

The Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence are about winning business
success with a high-performing, high integrity, ethical organization. The
Criteria help organizations respond to current challenges and address all
the complexities of delivering today's results while preparing effectively
for the future. The 2005 Criteria have been updated to deal with the specific
pressures on senior leaders; the needs for organizational, not just technological,
innovation; and the challenges of long-term viability and sustainability as
a high-performing business. The Criteria deal more directly with the topic
of execution: being agile and still executing with speed.
