APPA's Strategic Assessment Model (SAM) Survey
APPA's Strategic Assessment Model (SAM) is an essential tool that can be used to achieve organizational excellence through continuous improvement. SAM enables the facilities professional to assess an organization's financial performance, the effectiveness of its primary processes, the readiness of its employees to embrace the challenges of the future, and its ability to serve its customers. The facilities professional can utilize the model for self-improvement, peer comparison, or benchmarking. Learn more about the Strategic Assessment Model.
