The Â鶹ԭ´´ Quality Awards, established sixteen years ago, is a great opportunity to receive recognition for your outstanding Â鶹ԭ´´ project. Since their inception in 2005, over 1,300 customers and 1,100 implementation partners have been recognized for customer excellence.

They provide an opportunity to position your team and company as an innovative thought leader, smooth the path to secure funding for future digital projects, network and identify implementation partners with proven track records and receive public recognition through events, media and social media impressions.

The Awards are open to all customers with successful implementations of any Â鶹ԭ´´ solution that went live between two and eighteen months prior to award submission. Each nomination may only be submitted in the Â鶹ԭ´´ market unit that serves the customer, or the main location for the implementation. The project must show positive business impact and cannot have been submitted for an award in previous years.

Nominating your award is simple and can be done online. Download the submission questionnaire and complete all questions. Answers should be concise and focus on how excellence was achieved. Your completed questionnaire, plus any supporting documents, need to be uploaded to the nomination site. Only nominations received directly from customers via this online tool will be considered. A step by step tutorial can be found . The submission deadline is 31 May 2021.

Join the ranks of our previous winners including City of Cape Town, Discovery, Standard Bank and Umeme, to showcase your own excellence in implementation.

We look forward to celebrating with you!

Commitment to Quality at Â鶹ԭ´´

Achieving excellence is based on proven methods, effective tools, experience, and good judgment. Â鶹ԭ´´ has the tools and the expertise to achieve excellence consistently.

Delivering software solutions that bring significant benefits to the business doesn’t just happen . . . It takes careful planning and execution, measured against established criteria for achieving excellence. Drawing on the experience of tens of thousands of organizations that have successfully implemented software solutions, Â鶹ԭ´´ developed a set of quality principles, which have been confirmed as fundamental for achieving excellent results.

A commitment to quality underpins everything we do at Â鶹ԭ´´. It is a core value of our organization. The focus on quality principles in implementations – reinforced through effective cooperation among all stakeholders – is intended to help our customers, our partners, and Â鶹ԭ´´ achieve success together. Keeping this in mind the Customer Success Office in Africa is launching a 10-week campaign to help you unpack these quality principles.

Last month we celebrated great wins for two 2019 Â鶹ԭ´´ Africa Quality Awards Gold winners who also won at the Regional 2019 EMEA Quality Awards. City of Cape Town won Silver in the Innovation category and Umeme Limited won Bronze in the Fast Delivery category.

Some of the winning arguments for the City of Cape Town project included

• the participation of business in the review process,
• the creation of a Design Authority to obtain key technical decisions; and – also very important –
• the process of knowledge transfer to the City of Cape Town’s support team throughout the project.

Umeme Limited understood their strengths and weaknesses, which helped them to brilliantly manage the scope and governance of the project. Both projects displayed the use of the quality principles that helped them become winners. SO, look out for our next article to help you identify the specific quality principles!
