Everything you need to run award programmes properly.
From submission design to structured assessment and auditable outcomes, ClearAward gives you complete operational control in one platform.
PROGRAMME MANAGEMENT
Control the structure before you go live.
Define deadlines, assessment phases, categories, and readiness checks so your programme launches fully configured, not half-built.
Structured lifecycle control
ClearAward enforces a defined programme lifecycle to reduce configuration risk and operational drift.
Programmes move through controlled states:
Publishing is gated by readiness checks. If required elements are incomplete, the programme cannot go live.
Submission and scoring windows are date-controlled and enforced.
Categories can be configured for multi-award programmes, with separate tracking per category.
This is not a form link. It is a managed workflow.
Readiness enforcement
Programmes cannot be published unless forms, rubrics, windows, and assessors are properly configured.
Testing mode
Run the full submission and assessment workflow before launch. Test entries are clearly flagged and can be purged safely.
Controlled phase windows
Submission and scoring periods are date-enforced. Assessors cannot score outside configured windows.
Why this matters
Award programmes often fail because configuration errors go unnoticed until submissions begin.
ClearAward reduces that risk by enforcing structure before publication and by locking critical elements once live data exists.
This protects fairness, consistency, and credibility.

ASSESSMENT AND RUBRICS
Structured, defensible judging
A rubric is simply a clear, structured way of deciding what “good” looks like.
Rather than leaving assessors to interpret submissions freely, a rubric defines specific evaluation criteria, assigns weight where it matters most, and ensures every judge scores against the same framework.
The result is more consistent scoring, clearer shortlisting decisions, and outcomes that stand up to scrutiny.

MONITORING AND OUTCOMES
Real-time visibility across your programme
Running an award programme should not mean chasing updates or reconciling spreadsheets.
ClearAward gives administrators a real-time view of submissions, assessor progress, and scoring outcomes, so you always know what is happening and what needs attention.
Real-time oversight
Live submission counters
Status filters by phase and category
Test vs real submission flags
Assessor completion tracking
You can see at a glance what is pending, scored, shortlisted, or complete.
Transparent scoring breakdown
Auto-score visibility
Averaged rubric scores
Individual assessor score cards
Expandable comments per criterion
You do not just see totals. You see how those totals were reached.
Structured outcome management
Pass, fail, shortlist decisions
Bulk outcome updates
Decision timestamps
Recorded decision-maker identity
Every outcome is traceable and defensible.
Why this matters
Without structured monitoring, award decisions rely on fragmented information and manual reconciliation.
ClearAward centralises scoring and outcomes so decisions are based on complete, transparent data, not partial visibility.

DATA EXPORT AND REPORTING
Your data, ready when you need it.
Award programmes do not end when judging is complete.
Programme managers often need to share results with stakeholders, prepare board summaries, archive records, or analyse scoring trends.
ClearAward allows you to export structured programme data in multiple formats, so you can report, review, and retain information without manual reformatting.
Export for analysis
Download a structured Excel file containing:
All submissions and responses
Internal and external assessment scores
Total and averaged scores
Category breakdowns
This makes it easy to:
Review scoring trends
Conduct deeper analysis
Share structured data with colleagues
Prepare board or committee reports
No manual copy and paste required.
Export for integration
Generate a full JSON export of programme data in machine-readable format.
This is useful if you:
Need to integrate results into another system
Archive data in your own infrastructure
Conduct external analytics
Your programme data remains accessible and portable.
Export for sharing and record-keeping
Generate professional PDF reports for:
The full programme
Individual submissions
Multiple submissions in bulk
PDF reports are useful for:
Panel reviews
Final decision documentation
External audit records
Formal winner documentation
All exports are audit-logged with exporter identity and timestamp, providing traceability.
Why this matters
Programme managers should not need to rebuild reports after judging ends.
ClearAward captures data in structured form from the start, so reporting is a continuation of the workflow, not a separate manual task.
SECURITY AND GOVERNANCE
Security and governance you don't have to think about.
Award programmes often involve sensitive information, high-profile judges, and decisions that affect reputation.
Security is not just about preventing breaches. It is about ensuring that access is controlled, data is isolated, decisions are traceable, and the integrity of the process is protected.
ClearAward is designed to provide those safeguards without adding operational complexity.
Protecting organisational data
Each organisation's data is completely isolated from others within the platform. This means:
No cross-programme data visibility
No accidental data exposure between organisations
Clear separation at database level
For programme managers, this provides confidence that submissions and scoring remain private and contained.
Controlling who can see what
ClearAward uses role-based permissions to ensure users only see what they are supposed to see. For example:
External assessors cannot see responses marked internal-only
Scoring windows restrict when assessments can be submitted
Multi-factor authentication protects administrative accounts
This reduces the risk of inappropriate access or accidental disclosure.
Creating a clear audit trail
Important actions within the system are recorded, including:
Submission activity
Assessment scoring
Outcome decisions
Data exports
User and permission changes
Each event is timestamped and linked to the responsible user, providing traceability if questions arise.
Supporting data protection requirements
ClearAward includes:
Configurable consent capture
Recorded consent timestamps
Structured data retention controls (enterprise tier)
Data export to support subject access requests
This helps organisations meet data protection obligations in a structured way.
Why this matters
Award programmes rely on trust.
Participants trust that their submissions are handled securely.
Judges trust that scoring is private and controlled.
Stakeholders trust that outcomes can be justified.
Security and governance controls protect that trust.
