QUALITY NEW MEXICO News:

Quality New Mexico is accepting applications for the Board of Examiners through May 31.

Examiners are volunteers who, working in teams, review applications submitted to the New Mexico Performance Excellence Awards program, administered by Quality New Mexico.

The awards program recognizes New Mexico business, government, education, health care and nonprofit organizations for their commitment, progress, or achievement in performance excellence.

The program is modeled after the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, using the same Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence.

Each year individuals from around the state – including professionals, self-employed, retired and graduate students – representing for-profit, education, government, health care and non-profit sectors give their time generously to serve as members of the Board of Examiners.

Examiners bring knowledge of the Baldrige Criteria and experience with quality.

Anyone with management and/or organizational performance experience, the ability to analyze and synthesize information as well as perform technical writing, should consider applying.

The benefits of being selected to serve as an examiner are numerous including enhancing one’s own professional experience, helping New Mexico organizations advance in economic growth and competitiveness, and helping one’s own organization improve its overall performance. 

Volunteer time could be 12-25 days to fulfill the commitment from August through mid-December. 

Individuals interested in serving on Board of Examiners are required to submit an application.
