Step-by-Step Process for the Business Excellence Awards (BEAwards)
STEP
Research
The BEAwards Team works diligently to identify and recognize outstanding businesses across Uganda. The team drives many of the nominations but also encourages external nominations from various sources, including subscribers, website visitors, social media followers, clients, and the general public. Nominators can submit their own business or nominate other companies they highly regard.
STEP
Shortlisting
Once businesses are nominated for the Business Excellence Awards (BEAwards), they will be contacted formally to confirm their participation. Nominees have the option to accept or decline the nomination. Those who accept the nomination are invited to submit additional supporting information, although this step is optional. Many nominees choose to provide extra details to strengthen their nomination.
STEP
Evaluating Shortlisted Nominees
Our dedicated research team thoroughly reviews all the submitted information for the Business Excellence Awards (BEAwards). They gather data from publicly available sources and assess it alongside the materials submitted by the nominees or nominators. The evaluation criteria include business performance, sustainability, innovation, growth (whether gradual or rapid), diversification, and feedback from stakeholders.
STEP
Determining the Winners
Once the winners are selected, they are privately notified before any public announcement is made. This allows businesses to communicate internally and prepare their marketing strategies. While not all nominees can win, we encourage everyone to participate again in future editions. After the press embargo is lifted, the winners will be publicly announced on our website, in the awards magazine, and through our subscriber newsletter for Business Excellence Awards (BEAwards).
