To create this report, we reached out to several key groups of experts.

· Awards consultants;
· Evalato customers managing awards programs;
· Managers of other global awards programs;
· Other prominent awards experts.

We asked all of them to outline the current and upcoming trends in awards management. We then summarized their responses to prepare the top 10 industry trends for a comprehensive picture of the awards management sector and where it’s headed.

An increasing trend in awards management is the use of comprehensive platforms that streamline the entire process for all stakeholders. These tools provide an all-in-one solution that simplifies the experience for everyone involved.
