Shingo Research Award
--------------
The Shingo Research Award is for research (in English) that makes a significant contribution to the extension of understanding and knowledge of the philosophy, principles, or methods of enterprise excellence consistent with the Shingo Model. This can either be conceptual or based on empirical research activity. There is not a self-nomination process for this award. The Shingo Research Advisory Committee decides independently which work should receive the award. Each year, up to two awards are presented at the Shingo Annual Conference in May and recognized on the Shingo Institute website.
