Paperwork Reduction Act Statement
Notwithstanding any other provision of the law, no person is required to respond to, nor shall any person be subject to a penalty for
failure to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, unless that collection
of information displays a currently valid OMBUse
Control
Number.notwithstanding
updated
The reason for collecting this information is tostatement
allow organizations to apply for the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award
(award). The information obtained will assist in determining the award recipients. Responses to the collection of information are
required for organizations to be considered for the award. Confidentiality of the submitted information is covered under the Freedom
of Information Act to the extent possible under the law.
The public reporting burden for this collection is estimated to average 100 hours for the initial response of the first-time applicant (this
includes the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the relevant data, and
completing and reviewing the collection of information). As the organization reapplies for the award in future years, this burden may
change, in either direction, based on the feedback the respondent gains from its first application.
