Evaluating organisational performance in healthcare: a mixed-method study using the McKinsey 7S framework.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe Moroccan healthcare sector faces numerous quality challenges. Therefore, various strategies-such as the implementation of quality management systems (QMSs)-were put into practice to improve the quality of care and reinforce the healthcare system. Among these, ISO 9001 represents one formalised QMS framework. Despite its increasing adoption, only a few studies have attempted to evaluate how ISO 9001-certified QMSs influence hospital performance and effectiveness. Our study aimed to fill this gap by exploring the impact of an ISO 9001-certified QMS on organisational performance in a hospital centre in Casablanca, Morocco.
methodsInitially, we employed the McKinsey 7S model as a diagnostic tool to evaluate organisational performance across seven key dimensions. Data were collected via structured interviews and a questionnaire administered to hospital staff. Additionally, clause 9 of the ISO 9001:2015 standard-focused on performance evaluation-was used to assess the QMS implementation. As for data analysis, the software Sphinx V5 was used for data entry, and IBM SPSS Statistics V.25 was used for reliability analysis and non-parametric tests.
resultsThe results indicated a positive staff perception of the QMS's performance and its impact on patient satisfaction, continuous improvement and overall hospital effectiveness. The results also highlighted gaps in organisational factors such as internal communication and staff training, suggesting areas for future improvement.
conclusionsThis study provided a dual-framework approach to evaluating and enhancing hospital performance by integrating ISO 9001 standard requirements with the McKinsey 7S model. The findings show the value of combining a formal QMS (ISO 9001) with organisational diagnostic tools (7S Model) in understanding and driving quality improvements in healthcare settings.
