New Mexico Quality Awards

Since 1994 the New Mexico Quality Awards Program has recognized businesses and organizations on their “Path to Performance Excellence”. The ‘Path’ is a formal improvement journey for any sector organization. The Program provides New Mexico with 3 levels of organizational assessment, written feedback with strengths and opportunities for continued improvement, and public recognition.    

NMQA Zia Award recognizes organizations that validate an effective systematic approach and demonstrate the highest level of organizational excellence, they are considered role model organizations - 12 NM organizations have received the NM Zia Award
