The British Engineering Excellence Awards are not designed to celebrate the successes of a few; the Awards are intended to demonstrate to all UK engineering companies that it is possible to succeed; that they can work to a high level and, at that high level, compete globally.
Last year’s inaugural Awards showed that UK companies are producing world beating designs across the board. Grand Prix winner Flybrid Systems and Judges’ Special Award winner Lotus Engineering proved that, even in the automotive sector –one of the world’s toughest markets –British engineering and entrepreneurial management can lead the world.
The British Engineering Excellence Awards is not a rubber stamping exercise; entries will be scrutinised by a high level independent panel of judges and companies that make it to the shortlist will indeed be the best.
Does your company measure up? One way to find out is by entering the British Engineering Excellence Awards and I encourage you to do so.
And, in an industry where people make the difference, I particularly encourage you to nominate someone in the Design Engineer of the Year and Young Design Engineer of the Year categories.
