Organizations meeting the required standards receive a Pass, Merit, or, for exceptional submissions, a Distinction. Exceptional submissions may also be shortlisted for additional recognition in auto-entry awards, including Sector, Company, Country, and the Chief Adjudicators Award, judged by independent panels of adjudicators.
