Organisational Membership
Become a member of BEA to improve the way your organisation works.
You will become part of our network of members, evaluators and alliance partners who are all dedicated to following the Australian Business Framework principles to achieve high-performance levels in what they do.
Our network of members includes organisations of all sizes - small, medium and large enterpirses. They comprise private, public, government and not-for-profit organisations.
Our members have access to Members Only Benefits.
We offer a large range of benefits provided to members, including more education and assistance with implementing the ABEF.
Performance
Over the last thirty-five years, BEA has helped many organisations perform better by using the Australian Business Excellence Framework (ABEF) to manage change and guide their improved performance.
Excellence is more than just a pursuit but a key driver of perfomance.
Benchmarking
To achieve excellence, an organisation needs to know what excellence looks like. This can be difficult for an organisation without an 'outside view'. That is why BEA empowers its members with an 'outside view' of how they are performing against other, similar businesses and best practice guidelines.
Recognition & Awards
Organisations that make meaningful contribution and achieve excellence should be recognised and promoted, so that their positive contribution can be experienced nationwide. At our annual Awards Nights we recognise those organisations for achieving excellence. BEA Members can attend the Awards nights for a substantially discounted fee.
Awards Training
Through partnerships with reputed training providers, BEA hosts a range of training and development workshops and site visits to past Award winners around the country. BEA members can register for these workshops and access exclusive discounted, member-only rates.
News and Publications
Through online groups, monthly emails and other methods of communication, BEA provides members with regular access to key Australian and international research, development, news stories, as well as publications related to Excellence Models.
Mentoring
Collaborative peer learning opportunities are offered to members, where structured or informal mentoring opportunities to work with experienced evaluators and recognised professionals in the field are made available.
Learning Groups
Employees of our organisational members, can participate in learning groups around Australia who host quarterly events for ongoing collaboration and sharing. Members are also offered opportunities to lead learning events, publish articles and discussion papers that will be widely distributed by BEA.
Knowledge Library
A subscription to the Business Process Improvement Resource (BPIR) is an integral part of your membership. This provides access to a huge library of Excellence for several employees in your organisation, Quality and Improvement resources on a wide range of subjects including leadership, benchmarking, quality, self-assessment, and much more.
Your Roadmap
Our highly knowledgeable team of evaluators have decades of experience understanding what makes organisations excellent, supported by the Australian Business Excellence Framework. Each organisational member is provided with an annual consultation by a BEA representative or evaluator who can assist in developing their own organisational roadmap to Excellence.
