Award Planning Services
At EBS Consultancy Group, we offer expert award planning services as part of your broader event strategy. Our approach is designed to honor excellence, celebrate achievements, and elevate your brand through a well-structured and meaningful recognition program.
Our Award Planning Process
Define Purpose and Objectives
We start by clarifying the goals of your award program:
- What is the intended impact? (e.g., recognizing employee contributions, celebrating innovation, honoring industry leaders)
- Who is the primary audience? (e.g., internal teams, clients, partners, industry peers)
- What message or values should the awards communicate?

Determine Award Categories
We help identify and define the recognition areas that matter most:
- Select categories aligned with your organizational goals
- Craft clear, compelling names and descriptions for each category
- Establish fair, measurable criteria for evaluation
Set the Selection Process
A transparent and inclusive selection process builds credibility:
- Choose how nominations will be submitted (self-nomination, peer nomination, management recommendation)
- Define who will review and judge nominations (internal panel, external judges, or a combination)
- Create a structured and impartial scoring system
Establish Timeline and Budget
We ensure efficient planning with detailed scheduling and cost management:
- Develop a planning timeline by working backward from the ceremony date
- Allocate a budget covering all elements: trophies, venue, catering, AV, entertainment, promotion, etc.
- Include a contingency fund for unexpected costs
Plan the Awards Ceremony
We create a memorable and inspiring celebration:
- Decide on the format—standalone gala, part of a larger event, or virtual ceremony
- Choose a venue that suits the occasion
- Plan logistics including AV, catering, décor, seating, and accessibility
