Criteria and selection process

The aim of the State Corporate Quality Award is to highlight the state’s excellent companies and to emphasize the importance of the topic of corporate quality. All national and international companies and organizations with a focus on Austria can take part in a total of five different categories: large companies (more than 250 employees), medium-sized companies (51 to 250 employees), small companies (5 to 50 employees), non-profit organizations and organizations that are primarily publicly owned. The company’s quality was determined through an independent on-site visit (=assessment) by Quality Austria as well as through strategy discussions and individual and group interviews and evaluated based on objective criteria.

A top-class jury with representatives from areas such as business and science then selected the finalists in the various categories from all submissions. The State Prize winner for Corporate Quality 2024 will be chosen from the series of nominations on June 19th in Vienna.
