Shingo Licensed Affiliates can nominate one organization (non-Shingo Site recipient) each year that has built and evolved a model system aligned with the Shingo Guiding Principles, where measurable improvement is clearly attributable to that system, not to isolated tools or short-term initiatives. The system must demonstrably drive behaviors closer to ideal while improving performance outcomes. Recipients of this award display benchmark-worthy systems from which others can learn.
