Is there any greater honor for Baldrige Award-winning organizations than to receive a tribute from the President of the United States? How about receiving more than one? Current and former U.S. Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton each honored the performance excellence of Baldrige Award recipients early this week at the annual award ceremony and Baldrige 25th anniversary gala celebration, respectively. The Presidential remarks are highlights of the Quest for Excellence® Conference that began on April 7 in Baltimore.

“I’m so pleased to help honor this year’s prestigious [Malcolm] Baldrige National Quality Award winners—four organizations that are relentless in their pursuit of a better, brighter future,” said President Obama in his videotaped remarks at the award ceremony Monday morning.
“I’ve always said that our free market is the greatest engine of prosperity the world has ever known,” said the President. “And that engine is powered by our dreamers, our risk takers, and our innovators.”
The President then recognized the role-model work of the four 2012 Baldrige Award recipients:

• Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control, Grand Prairie, Texas (manufacturing)
• MESA Products Inc., Tulsa, Okla. (small business)
• North Mississippi Health Services, Tupelo, Miss. (health care)
• City of Irving, Irving, Texas (nonprofit)

“These honorees exhibit the kind of job-creating innovation that’s always kept our economy growing and vibrant and prosperous,” said the President. “So congratulations to this year’s award recipients and thanks to all of you for recognizing and promoting excellence and innovation.”

In a separate videotaped message presented at the Baldrige Program’s silver anniversary gala on Sunday, former President Clinton said, “I’m glad to join you in celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Malcolm Baldrige [National] Quality Award and to recognize this year’s honorees.”
“Since 1987 the Baldrige Award has helped invigorate our nation’s economy by advancing competitiveness and ensuring quality of performance in all sectors all across our country.”
In congratulating the four 2012 Baldrige Award winners, Clinton then said, “All of you represent the best of our industries and challenge us to build a stronger, more thriving economy.”

Bush and the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum also sent letters in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Baldrige Performance Excellence Program and Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award.
