The deadline for consideration for the 2014 awards is January 31, 2014. Awards nominations submitted after January 31, 2014 will be held and considered in the 2015 award cycle.

APPA's Effective & Innovative Practices Award recognizes programs and processes that enhance service delivery, lower costs, increase productivity, improve customer service, generate revenue, or otherwise benefit the educational institution. Entries can describe either a new program or significant restructuring of an existing program or process.

Projects displaying a high level of innovation and adaptability/transferability for implementation at other schools have the best chance of being favorably ranked.

Up to five ranked submissions will be eligible for a cash award of $4,000, thanks to an ongoing generous sponsorship provided by Sodexo. Winning entries will receive special recognition at APPA's annual conference and in Facilities Manager magazine.

Entries are judged on a point system based on:
