C) JUDGING CRITERIA

A weighted system is used by the Awards Judges to evaluate the listed criteria. For example, “Complexity”, with a weight of “5”, would be multiplied by the points (1 to 5) assigned by each judge. The total of all weights multiplied by point values is summed from all judges and the highest total score is the winner. Judges will most often not contact you for clarification on details and may not visit each submission. You will be judged based on your formal submissions.

The criteria being judged with weights are:

Challenges (weight 3); Complexity (weight 5); Creativity/Innovation in Transaction (weight 4); Size of Transaction (weight 3); Value Added to Client (weight 5).
