Business Initiative Directions (BID) is regarded today as the most effective and cost efficient organization working globally in the promotion and practical application of the Total Quality Management Models. In fact, it was BID’s CEO, José E. Prieto, who, together with a team of engineers, mathematicians, economists, sociologists and journalists who designed the QC100 total quality model, creating what is considered by many as the most comprehensive and effective tool for quality management in existence today. The primary mission of BID is to recognize, educate and promote quality culture among leaders of prominent companies and organizations. The founder of BID established the institution in the year 1986, headquartering in Spain and U.S.A.
Since 1986, companies in 179 countries around the world have implemented the technology of the BID QC 100 Model in order to manage total quality. BID began its operation in Paris, beacon of European Development and slowly spread to Geneva; headquarters for United Nations, Frankfurt; German Metropolis and laboratory for Europe’s technological development and lastly, London; the hub of world finance. After consolidation in Europe, the directors of BID chose New York as its launching point in U.S.A in order to meet increasing demand to provide U.S point of reference for business and professional endeavors.
Presently, BID holds 07 annual Quality Conferences, and in 2015 announced a groundbreaking agreement between BID Group One and Universidad Politecnica De Madrid to produce a series of seminars on topics of mutual interest in Europe and United States.
BID does its part every year by promoting, producing and sponsoring conferences, seminars, publications and awards which highlight the ideas and accomplishments of those leaders that relate to the implementation of Total Quality Management. BID leadership as global reference in the promotion of the Quality Culture, is reinforced and reestablished every year, through special awards, designed to recognize the enormous effort put into play by the companies and institutions, leaders of their own fields, into the establishment and execution of Total Quality Models. These are the companies and organizations that in the end have become spearheads for industry, setting the parameters for excellence.
