World-class judging panel

Your expertise will be recognised by our panel of over 30 judges, made up of the industry’s most respected and experienced professionals.

Reward hard work

Win or lose, being involved or just being shortlisted puts big smiles on people's faces. Good work always requires hard work, and entering will let your employees know you recognise and value those efforts.

Inspire award-winning work

We believe that proper, transparent collaboration is critical to great work. When people think they are creating award-winning work, you get much more physical and mental support all round, this will make writing the entry much easier.

Create case studies

During the awards process you are running the rule over your work. As you analyse and review your projects it allows you to craft that information into case studies for new and potential clients. So it’s time that’s well invested.

Identify the best fitting category

Download the entry kit and use it to your advantage! It contains everything you need to know about writing your entry and the criteria for what needs to be included. Read it, and then read it again, make sure you know the entry process inside out.

Be clear with your message

The judges want to see innovative, engaging and inspirational submissions, and they want it to be clear what sets your project apart from the rest. Focus on what is new and different.

Give yourself the time

Give yourself as much time as possible to write your entry. Try to get people from across the partnership involved and share with your teams to make sure you’ve had as many people as possible to read over your entry.

The P3 Awards matter because they are judged by the toughest critics, your peers. Our expert judging panels are made up of over 30 industry professionals representing both the public and private sector. The judges are selected based on their expertise, experience and integrity in the PPP market and we pride ourselves on our rigorous and objective judging process.

The final judging panel will be comprised of an inclusive range of individuals to fully represent the industry. Our aim is to give as many diverse voices (women, BAME, LGBTQ+, different ages / seniority, people with disabilities) a chance to determine the results of this industry-leading event.

Nominations to get involved are welcome from across the sector, either for yourself or a colleague. Please email [email protected] with your suggestions.
