Homeland Security Assessment Manual

Donald C. Fisher

Description

Many organizations have embraced the concept of improving overall performance by using the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award criteria as a benchmark to gauge their strengths and opportunities for improvement, and as a measurement of their overall alignment and integration of key processes. Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, America has made great strides in improving homeland security. Individual citizens, industry, and government leaders from all spectrums of our society have become involved in ensuring national security. This comprehensive and hands-on manual will help organizations align the Baldrige Award Criteria for Performance Excellence with homeland security issues. These are issues that both public and private organizations must address in order to ensure a safe work environment for their employees and the customers of their products and services.

This book is dedicated to the memories of my father, Alvin G. Fisher,
a World War II veteran, watchmaker, and jeweler, and my father-in-law, Ernest M. Madrey,
a farmer, carpenter, and youth advisor to
4-H programs for over 30 years. Both men were exemplary in
providing homeland security to their families and communities
over their entire lifetimes.H1237 Fisher00-02.qxd 8/28/04 12:39 PM Page viH1237 Fisher00-02.qxd 8/28/04 12:39 PM Page vii
