Quality New Mexico and the Baldrige National Quality Program will co-host the Western Baldrige Regional Conference in Albuquerque, New Mexico, this fall.

The conference and preconference workshops will be held Oct. 4–5 at the Hotel Albuquerque at Old Town. It will feature speakers and workshop presentations from the 2005 Baldrige Award recipients: Sunny Fresh Foods Inc., DynMcDermott Petroleum Operations Co., Park Place Lexus, Jenks Public Schools, Richland College and Bronson Methodist Hospital. It will also feature former Baldrige Award recipients.

A preconference workshop on Oct. 4 will focus on the basics of the Baldrige program for those who are new to it. The workshop isn’t a prerequisite to the conference, and is available with or without a full conference registration.
