An ACOMM Award is; a recognition of excellence for current and prospective employees, investors, clients and customers; providing your organisation with a unique competitive advantage. The prestigious Awards night allows you the opportunity to be celebrated and surrounded by leaders within the communications industry.

To ensure professionalism and transparency, a judging panel of respected industry professionals with no conflicts of interest are chosen to examine the submitted nominations. The criteria for these nominations request all award entrants to complete a detailed document which includes supporting testimonials and additional documentation to support their submission. Each judge will be assigned a number of categories and will be asked to score each submission in those categories based on all documentation provided by award entrants. The aggregate highest score will determine the winner of each award.

Download the snapshot of the eligibility and criteria table for each of the awards here. Please note, the nominating company needs to be registered and operating within Australia (ABN required on request). The nominee must also own the IP of the solution which they are nominating for the award and the entry must not have won an ACOMM Award (for the same product/solution/service) in the previous three years, with or without enhancement.

The judges can only assess your nomination on the information and materials supplied in the nomination form. We advise nominees to provide as much information as possible including any relevant supporting documentation and testimonials.

Supporting documents may include links to marketing campaigns and/or website initiatives, as well as soft copies of any marketing material. It is also recommended to include supporting testimonials for your nomination.

You will be asked to attach your Company Logo to your nomination. A high res (1MB - eps or ai) version of your company logo is preferred. The ACOMMS will only use your logo if your entry is shortlisted as a finalist in its given category(s) and will be used in the program booklet, displayed on the night and may be used in marketing material.

All information is highly confidential and is only shared within the event team and the judges of that category. The information is not published and any permissions would be sought if required.
