The Outstanding Division Award may be conferred annually and carries a plaque that will be displayed at the Society’s Headquarters office. Each year the winner will be added to the plaque. A certificate will be presented to each of the officers of the winning Division. The officers of the two runner-up Divisions will receive “Honorable Mention” certificates. The presentation of the plaque will be at the Annual Society Honors & Awards Program.
The Outstanding Division Award was originated to stimulate the improvement of Division activities and to encourage documentation of Division activities, plans and achievements. All Divisions within the Automation & Technology and Industries & Sciences Departments are eligible to participate.
The award will be administrated by the Society Honors & Awards Committee through a subcommittee within the Automation & Technology and Industries & Sciences Departments. The A&T/I&S Review Committee will consist of the Department Vice President, Advisory Board Chairman, and the Department’s Honors & Awards Chairman. The Department Vice President will select one alternate reviewer if two members of the Review Committee are from the same Division. The Division Operating Guide is the basis used for establishing the operation requirements for the Divisions. The criteria for judging will be taken from the Division Director’s Annual Report and Division Performance Data Sheets. The judges will look for mechanics, quality, completeness and performance.
In order to be eligible for the award, the Division Director’s Annual Report and Performance Data Sheets must be presented to the Department Vice President by June 1.
