Tips for Building Awards Submission

Writing Tips

  • The quality of the submission can “make or break” even the best project, so clear, concise, and grammatically correct writing is a must! 
  • With a strong outline to begin with, you can embellish each point and create a logical order for each explanation. 
  • If you had to tell a colleague what made your project unique and interesting, what would you say first? Highlight those salient points in your opening statements. 
  • Wherever possible, describe your role and what you did that was unusual, difficult, or above and beyond your expected duties in order to solve a problem or achieve client satisfaction. 
  • Submissions come alive in the details. Be sure to communicate heights, widths, distances, sizes, shapes, materials used, etc. to give the judges a true image of the project. 

Judging

  • The judging panel consists of industry professionals who are unaffiliated with the applicants 
  • Notes about the judging process: 
    • Judges will familiarize themselves with the electronic submissions.
    • Submissions are evaluated and scored by each judge.
    • If there is not a clear winner based on the judge's scores alone, a short list of finalists will be chosen.
