About us
The Mid-Atlantic Alliance for Performance Excellence (MAAPE), a Baldrige-based awards program serves Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. MAAPE is a 501c(3) nonprofit corporation that helps all types of organizations improve their performance and outcomes, including productivity, workforce engagement, competitiveness, and customer and stakeholder satisfaction. We use the leading-edge Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence as the basis for our process and for giving feedback to applicants. While MAAPE's process is modeled after the prestigious Baldrige Performance Excellence Program, our process is not about “winning an Award.” It’s about using the Baldrige Framework to perform low-cost, non-prescriptive assessments in addressing each applicant’s unique challenges. Applicants have said that the MAAPE process is one of the best, most cost-effective and comprehensive assessments available. All MAAPE applicant organizations – regardless of size – receive public recognition for their efforts in journeying toward performance excellence. MAAPE receives no financial or resource support from the government. Our organization is funded by members and sponsors, and we rely almost entirely on volunteers who share our passion for performance excellence.
