The theme of this Year’s Real IT Awards will be “Pride in Achievement” recognising the tremendous achievements of IT teams in supporting the business and ensuring that organisations operate at maximum efficiency, despite the dire economic climate over the past year.
 
This year’s Awards will reflect the changing priorities of IT departments with a number of new categories including;

• Rapid Response projects - 9 months or under, from funding to delivery
• Best User Awareness / Security Education programme
• Working Smarter: Improving ways of working through IT
• Corporate Social Responsibility in IT

These will sit alongside the popular categories from previous years - Delivering Business Value, Innovation in an IT project, Partnership and Service Improvement.

The awards are open to all IT user organisations with a turnover in excess of £100 million. Vendors and consultants are excluded from entering projects but may be entered by a qualifying user organisation as part of a partnership project.

The key dates for 2009 are:

• 2nd June – Registration begins
• 31st July – Registration closes
• 18th  September – Final date for full entry submission
• 19th November – Awards ceremony

Following the success of the Real IT Awards 2008 the Forum is aiming to make this year’s awards ceremony bigger and better with a prestigious West End venue and a celebrity host.
