The award is free to enter and open to firms with less than 250 employees in manufactur­ing, social enterprise or the service industry.

Winners are announced at the Ayrshire Chamber of Commerce annual dinner to be held at Trump Turnberry on March 6, 2020.

Lisa Stewart, Project Executive, Business Excellence Ayrshire, explained: “The Business Excellence Award is not only a prestigiou­s award, but also a hugely beneficial process for your business.

“The unique applicatio­n process requires you to evaluate your own business and performanc­e.

“They may not realise it, but there are many businesses doing things without considerin­g what they are doing is actually considered as excellent in a formal setting.”

A workshop to help guide businesses through the applicatio­n process and the key elements the judging panel will look for is being held in the Boardroom of Ayrshire Chamber of Commerce, on Monday, November 4 between 10am– 12pm.
