Furthermore, along with the Thai Public Sector Development Strategy
B.E. 2546-2550 (2003-2007), it requires all government agencies to transform their
working processes and procedures. The OPDC with the cooperation of the Thailand
Productivity Institute has designed and implemented the Public Sector Management
Quality Award (PMQA) – based on the Malcolm Baldridge National Award. The
three objectives of PMQA are to enhance the working ability of government agencies
in line with the Royal Decree on Criteria and Procedures for Good Governance
B.E. 2546 (2003), to enhance working abilities corresponding with international working
quality standards, and create a framework for evaluating and following up the quality
of public administration and administrative performance of government agencies.
