Organizational Excellence Framework (OEF)

Only 10% of the working population know about Excellence Models (e.g. EQFM, Baldridge), despite the fact they have been validated by 25 years of research.

The Organizational Excellence Framework (OEF) is a unique integrated management system, providing a big umbrella under which Management Systems (excellence models e.g. EFQM, Baldrige), Assurance Systems (e.g. ISO, HACCP), and Methods (e.g. lean, six sigma, balanced scorecard) all fit. OEF is explained in a series of 10 comprehensive PowerPoints, with detailed slide notes and implementation guidelines used by seasoned management consultants, available on Flevy here:

The authors of OEF have also developed an automated Assessment Tool for OEF. This tool provides a comprehensive diagnostic report with the following:

• Degree to which principles and best management practices are deployed; and
• An action-oriented improvement plan to address gaps.

You can access the tool here (includes both a free teaser assessment + “pay per use” versions):
