Abstract:
Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 aims for economic diversification and private sector empowerment, emphasizing the role of private businesses in sustainable growth. To achieve corporate excellence, Saudi businesses are adopting quality management frameworks like the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM). However, implementing EFQM faces challenges like cultural resistance and limited financial resources. This study develops a conceptual framework integrating EFQM enablers with Vision 2030’s strategic priorities, highlighting critical enablers like leadership, strategy, people, processes, partnerships, and resources, aiming to improve operational performance, human capital development, innovation capacity, and governance effectiveness. By addressing these key areas, organizations can better align their objectives with national goals and foster a culture of continuous improvement. Ultimately, this framework serves as a roadmap for businesses looking to navigate the complexities of the evolving market landscape while contributing to the broader vision of national development.
