Online Award Submission – Deadline 20 December 2022

The submission process for the QMCA Awards is deliberately simple to take the pressure off our members at a busy time of the year.

We have designed the entry process to be as simple as possible, taking the pressure of complex and highly detailed award entries, as we understand that at this time of year, you are facing numerous tenders and EOI deadlines for major projects across Queensland and Australia. Therefore, we have limited the entry to a maximum of 500 words (3,000 characters), enabling you to provide an overview of the project in relation to the criteria. If your entry requires more than the allowed characters in the form submission, please complete the form and send through additional detail as a document. Additional supporting information, such as imagery, video content, drawings etc. can be submitted via the form (maximum 8MB upload) or via a file-sharing service (Drop Box, OneDrive, WeSendIt etc.) with the download link emailed to media@qmca.com.au

In January, we will be inviting all finalists to a panel presentation. In this session, the in-depth submission details will be discussed with our judges, and each of the criteria will be addressed. The presentations will take place from 9 January onward.

Submissions for 2022 have now closed.
