Excellence Awards

What are the Planisware Excellence Awards?

The Planisware Excellence Awards recognize the inspiring ways Planisware customers are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in Innovation, Digital Transformation, Automation & Productivity. Each year’s submissions are reviewed, voted on, and ultimately select by a jury of the previous year’s winners.

Awards will be given in 3 categories

How the Planisware Excellence Awards Work

Every year, Planisware customers are invited to submit their organization’s most remarkable achievements in project portfolio management, to showcase how they’ve harnessed Planisware Orchestra or Enterprise to drive remarkable change and innovation. In the months leading up to Exchange, submissions are then judged on four key criteria by a customer jury of the past year’s Excellence Awards winners.

Awards are Scored According to Three Primary Criteria

  • Innovativeness of solution
  • Business value achieved
  • Effectiveness and cleverness in using Planisware solutions to address the challenge
