It includes readiness for the King Abdulaziz Quality Award, European Foundation for Quality Management certifications and deployment of ISO standards for health and safety, knowledge management, facility management, risk management, training and competence, recruitment and workforce planning.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><b>A. The Challenge<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The fund sought recognition for excellence but lacked the integrated systems, certifications and practices required for awards and international standards. A comprehensive programme was needed to align processes with quality and safety requirements and build internal capability.<\/p>\n<p><b>B. Our Solution<\/b><\/p>\n<p>We provided consulting and training to implement the EFQM model and achieve two levels of European excellence recognition. We installed ISO management systems covering occupational health and safety, knowledge management, facility management, risk, training and competencies, recruitment and workforce planning. The programme included awareness sessions, audits and documentation.<\/p>\n<p><b>C. Key Achievements<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The project positioned HRDF to compete for national and international excellence awards. It established a suite of ISO\u2011compliant systems, improved organisational processes and cultivated a culture of continuous improvement. HRDF\u2019s practices now align with global standards and support sustainable excellence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HRDF implemented EFQM and multiple ISO standards, preparing to win national and international excellence awards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":352224,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","gs-project-category":[213],"gs-project-tag":[214],"class_list":["post-349936","gs-project","type-gs-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","gs-project-category-quality-and-institutional-excellence","gs-project-tag-government"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kaizen.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gs-project\/349936","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kaizen.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gs-project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kaizen.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/gs-project"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kaizen.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=349936"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kaizen.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/352224"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kaizen.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=349936"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"gs-project-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kaizen.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gs-project-category?post=349936"},{"taxonomy":"gs-project-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kaizen.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gs-project-tag?post=349936"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
