Since 2016, though not last year during Covid, PASA has hosted annual awards as a core part of our principal annual event – the PASA PremierCONFEX event each October.
These awards were unique in that they recognised new approaches in procurement and, crucially, were judged not by an anonymous panel but by the audience members at our annual conference. The audience present vote for the award winners through our conference APP based upon the shortlisted CASE STUDY presentations by the very people who submitted the award entries.
This had the added benefit that the audience at our largest annual event got to hear 9 punchy ten-minute CASE STUDY presentations of excellent and innovative procurement work by peers – giving everyone the chance to learn from the award entrants and the best practices they showcase.
The Nigels
The founder of PASA, Nigel Wardropper, always took a personal hand in the PASA awards process, the presentations and the shortlisting. He cared that procurement as a subject constantly moved forward – that it was innovative, practical and, most of all, achieved real results.
These principles have been enshrined into the PASA Awards process for the future as a memorial to Nigel who sadly died just prior to the October 2020 annual PASA PremierConfex event, which was hosted online due to Covid and could not host Awards that year for obvious reasons.
This year, we have therefore renamed the annual PASA Awards as ‘The Nigels’
Winning a PASA Award – a “Nigel”
Winning a PASA Award is a prestigious recognition of procurement excellence. Not only are the winners judged against their peers’ efforts in competition, but also against a minimum standard for excellence defined by our esteemed judging panel of procurement experts. Winners must pass a standard of excellence, we believe.
Three entries will be shortlisted for each Award (please click on the title of the award to download the nomination form):
- Most Improved Procurement Team 2021 – click here for form
- Procurement innovation of the Year 2021 – click here for form
- The Procurement Transformation Award 2021 – click here for form
Each SHORTLISTED entry will be invited to present a short 10-minute CASE STUDY presentation at the Premier ConfeX covering the key attributes of their entry and encapsulating why they think their entry might win a ‘Nigel’
All shortlisted entries will receive a memento certificate of SHORTLISTING and a copy of the photographs from the occasion.
It is possible judges might also cite some “HONORABLE MENTIONS” from entries that were not shortlisted.
The three actual PASA award winners receive an engraved trophy to take home. Most winners enter their win on their LinkedIN profile and on their resume.
It is likely that PASA will invite winners and/or shortlisted entries to re-present their case study at future PASA events. In this respect, the material presented must be available to the public domain and appropriate for general public consumption please.
