About the Digital Transformation award
This award recognises an initiative or project that demonstrates how applying Quality 4.0 principles can deliver successful digital transformation and meaningful business value.
Whether you've introduced digital innovation, transformed processes, used data to drive improvement or delivered better outcomes for customers, this is your opportunity to showcase how quality has helped make transformation successful.

The judges are looking for:
- a well-delivered project with demonstrable benefits to stakeholders
- an approach that focuses on people as well as processes and systems
