NHQ Awards

Launched in 1992, the National Housing Quality Awards (NHQA) is dedicated to the advancement and recognition of organizational excellence in homebuilding by assessing a company’s achievement of operational effectiveness using verifiable metrics, including Leadership, Strategic Planning, Process Management, Customer Satisfaction, Human Resources, Construction Quality, Trade Relationship, and Business Results. While the format for the NHQ Awards is modeled on the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award and ISO 9000 concepts for quality management systems.

There have been 120 NHQ Awards given to builders, remodelers, trades, and suppliers since the first honor was presented in 1993. A jury of quality management experts and past NHQ Award winners reviews and scores the written applications from which finalists are selected for site visits. A judging panel then visits and grades the builders to validate that the systems and processes mentioned in the application are in use. These grades are combined with the application scores to determine the gold, silver, bronze, or honorable mention status of the finalists.
