IPMA Global Project Excellence Award Application Year 2018 Moving winners forward
IPMA Global Project Excellence Awards
Projects and programmes provide very many challenges. Teams who tackle
these challenges and deliver to the benefit of the various stakeholders
deserve our biggest respect. Apparently delivering the planned results and
achieving the expected benefits is easier said than done. Therefore, lifelong
learning and continuous improvement are keys for success. This is why I am
inviting you to enter the IPMA Global Project Excellence Awards. The Awards
are the ideal way to learn from international experts and other organisations,
and get recognition for what the team has achieved.
The IPMA Global Project Excellence Awards use the Project Excellence Baseline
as the basis for the assessment and possibly achieve international recogni-
tion of your project management. The model is publicly available and the
Award Assessors are trained to use it. In order to maximise the benefits from
the award process, you should be aware of the application stages. First you
submit your entry and select the category you are entering. Then your entry
is studied by a dedicated Assessment Team and after the Award Judges have
reviewed the assessment team comments, a Site Visit will take place during
which the assessment team interviews the most important stakeholders. After
the assessment team submits their second judges’ report, the judges decide
on the allocation of prizes, which are awarded at an IPMA event. In addition
to the prize gala event, you will have the opportunity to meet judges and rep-
resentative of the assessment team during a Feedback Session. There will be
other events organised for you to meet other applicant organisations to learn
more about best practices from around the world.

What Winners say
Independent and influential assessment
“The IPMA Project Excellence Award provides an independent and influential
assessment of a company’s true strengths and weaknesses in project man-
agement. Medupi recognition goes to the thousands of workers that made
Medupi synchronisation possible in September 2015 and the stabilisation of
the South African grid a tangible success for the people in the country.”
Mr. Valerio Di Cecio, GE Steam Power Systems, South Africa, Gold Winner 2016
Intense learning experience
“Applying to the Award has been an intense learning and benchmarking
experience, which resulted in significant recognition. If you are motivated
in having the opportunity to influence your organisation more and grow
in self awareness, then IPMA will give you a boost (key).”
Mr Riccardo Fabbri, Project Manager, GE Oil & Gas,
Gold Winner 2014
Reference for customers
“This recognition in the management field by a an international organisation
is very important and contributes to our image towards our customers.
It confirms our company management capabilities in complex projects
getting an additional reference for future bids.”
Mr Jean-Michel Reix, Thales Alenia Space, Gold Winner 2014
Dare to apply?
Since 2002, more than
100 volunteers have
worked on assessing pro-
ject management teams
bold enough to enter the
yearly Project Excellence
Awards competition,
comparing their achieve-
ments to other world class project management
teams. Over 120 applications from more than 26
countries have participated in the IPMA Global
Project Excellence Awards, receiving recognition
from peers around the world. A balanced and
high level result in the three areas of the Project
Excellence Model: People & Purpose, Processes
& Resources and Project Results is what char-
acterises those teams that have managed to
achieve results beyond what is expected.
