What is EFQM Excellence Model?

"Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude." Ralph Marston
"If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you develop the habit in little matters. Excellence is not an exception, it is a prevailing attitude."Colin Powell

Every organization aspires to Business Excellence. The main framework for supporting an approach to Business Excellence is the EFQM Excellence Model ™ which was established by European Foundation for Quality Management in 1991 and promoted in Ireland by EIQA (Excellence Ireland Quality Association).
