The EFQM Excellence Model provides a framework for organizations to assess their performance and drive continuous improvement. It includes 9 criteria across enablers and results. The 5 enabler criteria cover leadership, strategy, people, partnerships/resources, and processes/services. The 4 results criteria cover customer, people, social, and business outcomes. Organizations can use the RADAR logic to structure self-assessment of their approaches and achievement of results. The model takes a holistic view to help organizations meet stakeholder expectations and achieve sustainable excellence.

2. THE EFQM EXCELLENCE MODEL
Whilst there are numerous management tools and techniques
commonly used, The EFQM Model provides an holistic view of
the organization and it can be used to determine how these
different methods fit together and complement each other.
The EFQM can therefore be used in conjunction with any
number of these tools, based on the needs and function of the
organization, as an overarching framework for developing
sustainable excellence.
Excellent organizations achieve and sustain outstanding levels
of performance that meet or exceed the expectations of all
their stakeholders.
3. THE EFQM EXCELLENCE MODEL
There is a set of three integrated components
which comprise the EFQM Excellence Model:
The Fundamental Concepts of Excellence
The Model Criteria
The RADAR Logic
4. WHAT IS EXCELLENCE
We often talk about it, and in general we feel
we're doing an excellent job, but what
is Excellence? Excellence is more than just
doing well, or being good.
Excellence is when people strive to be the best
they can be and this applies to organisations as
well.
5. THE NEED FOR MODEL
Who does the organisation work for? The traditional
view is the shareholders. But from an internal
perspective, this means optimizing profitability and
balancing the short-term demands for dividends against
the long-term sustainability of the business model.
To ensure sustainable financial growth, we need to keep
our customers satisfied. To do this, we need to develop
and deliver products & services that add value to them.
We also need to deliver excellent service to maximize
retention, loyalty and our reputation.
6. FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS
HOW DO YOU DEFINE EXCELLENCE? Excellent Organisations
achieve and sustain outstanding levels of performance that meet or exceed the expectations of all their
stakeholders.

7. MODEL CRITERIA
APPLICABLE TO ANY ORGANISATION
The EFQM Excellence Model is based on 9 criteria.
5 of these are "Enablers" and 4 are "Results".
The "Enabler" criteria cover what an organisation does and how it does it.
The "Results" criteria cover what an organisation achieves.
8. ENABLERS
WHAT AN ORGANISATION DOES AND HOW IT DOES IT
LEADERSHIP
Excellent organisations have leaders who shape the future and make it happen, acting as role models for
its values and ethics and inspiring trust at all times. They are flexible, enabling the organisation to
anticipate and reach in a timely manner to ensure the on-going success of the organisation.
STRATEGY
Excellent organisations implement their Mission and Vision by developing a stakeholder focused
strategy. Policies, plans, objectives and processes are developed and deployed to deliver the strategy.
PEOPLE
Excellent organisations value their people and create a culture that allows the mutually beneficial
achievement of organisational and personal goals. They develop the capabilities of their people and
promote fairness and equality. They care for, communicate, reward and recognise, in a way that motivates
people, builds commitment and enables them to use their skills and knowledge for the benefit of the
organisation.
PARTNERSHIPS & RESOURCES
Excellent organisations plan and manage external partnerships, suppliers and internal resources in order
to support their strategy, policies and the effective operation of processes. They ensure that they
effectively manage their environmental and societal impact.
PROCESSES, PRODUCTS & SERVICES
Excellent organisations design, manage and improve processes, products and services to generate
increasing value for customers and other stakeholders.
9. RESULTS
WHAT AN ORGANISATION ACHIEVES
There are 4 Results areas, shown on the right-hand side of the Model. These are the results an
organisation achieves, in line with their strategic goals.
In all 4 results areas, we find that excellent organisations:
Develop a set of key performance indicators and related outcomes to determine the successful
deployment of their strategy, based on the needs and expectations of the relevant stakeholder
groups
Set clear targets for key results, based on the needs and expectations of their business
stakeholders, in line with their chosen strategy
Segment results to understand the performance of specific areas of the organisation and the
experience, needs and expectations of their stakeholders
Demonstrate positive or sustained good business results over at least 3 years
Clearly understand the underlying reasons and drivers of observed trends and the impact these
results will have on other performance indicators and related outcomes
Have confidence in their future performance and results based on their understanding of the
cause and effect relationships established
Understand how their key results compare to similar organisations and use this data, where
relevant, for target setting

meet or exceed the need and expectations of their customers.

11. STRUCTURED APPROACH TO QUESTIONING THE
PERFORMANCE OF AN ORGANISATION
RADAR is a simple but powerful management tool that can be applied in different ways to help drive continuous
improvement:
Assessing the maturity of the approaches you have implemented
Assessing the excellence of the results achieved
Helping to structure improvement projects
12. ASSESSING ENABLERS
When assessing Enablers, we look at the
approaches adopted, how they have been
deployed and how the organisation assesses
and refines their efficiency & effectiveness
over time.
13. ASSESSING RESULTS
When assessing Results, we first
look at their Relevance to the
organisation's strategy and how
useful they are in reviewing
progress against these key
objectives.
When then look at
the performance of the results
themselves.
