What are the IT Excellence Awards?

The IT Excellence Awards programme is organised annually by Fairfax Business Media (FBM). Previously launched and run under the auspices of MIS Asia magazine (FBM’s flagship media property), the Awards recognise IT organisations and CIOs for management excellence and for the original and creative use of technology to help attain business goals.

FBM editors and senior IDC Asia Pacific (IDC AP) consultants are looking for IT organisations and CIOs who have demonstrated management excellence as well as original and creative use of technology to help attain business goals. The Awards programme is open for IT projects/systems/initiatives/services implemented in the Asian region in the past 12 months.

Vendors and PR agencies are free to submit nominations on behalf of their clients, however they must NOT focus on their own products or technologies but instead on the management of the IT project. Similarly, vendors looking to nominate internal projects should NOT turn their submission into sales pitches.

Nominations are now closed.
The IT Excellence Award winners will be announced at the CIO Summit in Singapore, on 2 August 2012.

Every nomination will be considered with utmost impartiality. As in previous years, the Award judges will comprise outstanding senior CIOs, industry experts or analysts. The judging process will be as follows:

1. Validation

FBM editors and senior IDC Asia Pacific (IDC AP) consultants will validate all entries. If a nomination does not match the criteria of the selected category, it will be transferred to one which best fits the project. Entries will be checked for completeness and may be returned for more information. If the FBM editors and IDC AP consultants decide the nomination does not meet any of the criteria, they reserve the right to remove the nomination from consideration.

2. Evaluation

Following validation, all nominations will be sent to our panel of independent experts from throughout the region, for evaluation and scoring.
