Destination service provider of the year

This Award recognises quality and professionalism in the provision of destination services that are operated by service suppliers that focus on a specific country or at local/regional or global level.

Entrants will need to demonstrate excellence in delivering core DSP services, including orientation, home search, settling-in and departures, and any other subsidiary services they may offer, such as immigration, school search, partner support or cultural awareness. Entries should include, for example, how connections have been developed to deliver creative, flexible solutions to issues raised by the mobility process.

Entrants may, for example, demonstrate how technology/social media are used to advance communications, and report on processes and systems used to improve the relocation experience. They can highlight innovations in response to changing requirements, such as new world of work, flexibility and working from home, relocation policy, value change across global mobility, disrupters, supply chains changes, industry sector developments, property trends, new markets and/or new locations.

Case studies that explain how you have built connections to deliver creative solutions to mobility problems, who were involved, the benefits to assignees/the business/corporate clients and how these were measured are welcome. Examples of service delivery in challenging locations and for group moves are also welcome.

Entrants must:

Highlight how your entry is inspirational and why you should win this award category
Demonstrate a people-centered approach and the importance of creative connections
Explain how an exceptional quality and personalised mobility experience is provided and to whom it applies
Demonstrate a responsive, resource-efficient and cost-effective service, showing how value is added to the mobility experience
How you manage your own people so that they demonstrate commitment, engagement and passion in service delivery
