The EFQM network thrives on strong relationships with partner organisations. As a not-for-profit membership organisation, our projects are sometimes accompanied by complementary services that are delivered through consultants. Our geographic reach is extended through partners in national territories, who may offer similar or related services to EFQM, but on a local basis. We also work with several other partner organisations, such as universities or other bodies who have a shared interest in developing and extending the application of business excellence.
Our partnerships are built on common values and trust: associated with shared standards of Excellence, and the Fundamental Concepts to which all adhere. The EFQM Excellence model, assessment tools, case studies and learning are actively used by our partners.
Partners may deliver training in complementary areas to EFQM, offer local recognition and award schemes and maintain their own consultant network. Our consulting partners offer a range of services: some specialise in training and development, others are primarily focused on organisation and processes.
