Awards Research Desk · United Kingdom

Win the right business awards. Without writing the entries.

Most companies enter the one award they happened to hear about, in the wrong category, written the night before. We find the awards you can credibly enter, then write the entry.

The hard part is not the writing. It is knowing which programmes exist, which are open, and which you qualify for. That is public web work, done continuously, by a desk instead of by you at 11pm.

The whole offer

We do both halves of the job: finding the award, then writing the entry. One published price, every claim sourced, and no win-rate claim anywhere on this page.

01 — The problem

Nobody inside your company owns awards.

You find out about an award three days before it closes, in an email from the organiser. In one afternoon you must decide whether you are eligible, which of eleven categories fits, what evidence exists, and who writes 1,800 words of criteria-matched prose.

Usually the answer is “not this year”. Shortlists win trust and wins win deals, so the cost of that answer is real. It is simply never on anyone’s objectives.

There is no neutral, current map of UK B2B awards. The largest public list belongs to an entry consultancy, and organiser sites advertise only their own programmes.

“Usually the answer is not this year.”

Organiser’s question · 350 words

Across the year to March 2026, Ferrolane’s scheduling platform was used by 214 industrial clients to plan shift cover.1 Nine of those clients measured the change against their own baseline and recorded an average reduction of 31% in unfilled shifts.2

The largest single result came from a food manufacturer with 1,400 staff across four sites, which logged £268,000 in avoided agency spend over eight months.3 Their operations director has agreed to be named and quoted in this entry.

05 — Plain terms

What we promise, and what we do not.

We promise

  • If verification shows you are not eligible and no suitable alternative exists, you are refunded in full.
  • We redraft until you approve, within the same application and on facts you supplied or we can verify.
  • If we miss a deadline we committed to, we say so first and refund without being asked.
  • Every claim in your entry is a verified public fact or a fact you gave us. Anything else, we ask.

We do not

  • We publish no win rate and promise you no outcome. The judges decide that, and we say so plainly.
  • The organiser’s entry fee is not included. It is stated in figures before you pay us anything.
  • We do not submit on your behalf, pay entry fees for you, or sign declarations in your name.
  • We do not take calls. Ask anything in writing and you have an answer the same working day.

Awards are a calendar, not a whim.

Somebody has to watch that calendar and know which dates are yours. That is the whole job of this desk, and it costs £495 when you decide to enter.

Award Scan requests open when the desk goes live. There is nothing to sign up to on this page, by design.
