Quality Fitness Test (QFT)
– separate QFTs available for the Private Sector, Public Sector, Small Business and Non-Profit / Associations

  The Quality Fitness Test is a comprehensive self-assessment tool that includes a series of check sheets based on the Canadian Quality Criteria. Easy to use, this seven-step workbook is completed by people from different areas in your organization. It is designed to:

  • Identify your organization’s strengths and opportunities for improvement
  • Lay the groundwork for your quality improvement plan
  • Give guidance on all aspects of assessment
  • Determine your readiness to apply for the Manitoba Quality Awards or the Canada Awards for Excellence

Each step of the test includes a "how to" section with Tips and Guidelines to ease your way through a complete assessment. The steps are:

  1. Twenty-question warm-up: A mini-test to help build consensus on the need for assessment.
  2. Set up a team: Assemble a team from areas throughout the organization and choose a facilitator.
  3. Spread the word: The team explains the purpose of the assessment and prepares staff.
  4. Prepare for action: Facilitator and team sets the interview agenda, assigns roles and responsibilities.
  5. Assessment day: The team conducts staff interviews.
  6. Check the stats: Pool and analyze data, help assign assessment scores (optional).
  7. Plan for further action: Final report and analysis of findings for development of an improvement plan.
