What are the benefits of being named a Citect Customer Excellence Award winner?
The program is a great way to promote your organization’s success and can help you to:
- Document your achievements and quantify process improvements
- Recognize individuals, instrumental in achieving excellence within your organization
- Receive recognition from your peers for being an innovator and a leader in your field
- Obtain corporate recognition through the promotion of the Excellence Awards
Regional and Global Award Categories
Awards will be presented for each of the following categories on a regional (Oceania, Africa, Americas, Asia and Europe) and global basis.
 Environmental Management Award
For outstanding achievement in environmental management, such as reduction in emissions, waste or energy consumption or improving the quality of the environment as a result of implementing a Citect solution. Eg, implementing CitectSCADA Reports may have signifi cantly reduced gaseous emissions as a result of being able to store emissions readings and being able to track trends or transgressions in real-time.
Best Practice in Innovation Award
For demonstrating innovative techniques and processes in the implementation and deployment of a Citect solution across an organization. Eg, innovative use of CitectSCADA in an automation application, or of Ampla to improve production processes.
Best Return on Investment (ROI) Award
For the best measurable ROI as a result of implementing a Citect solution, such as financial return or percentage increase in productivity, yield, efficiency, quality, or uptime performance across an organization’s site, part of a site or multiple sites. Eg, as a result of using Ampla Downtime’s multi-level redundancy, a plant system’s uptime may have increased by 25%.
Special Recognition Awards
Entries for the above three categories may be eligible for a Special Recognition Award. These awards will be judged by Industry Sector.
