2017 marks AUDE’s 25th year in promoting excellence in the strategic planning, management, operation and development of higher education estates and facilities.The annual AUDE Awards is just one of the ways AUDE continues to support best practice in University Estates and Facilities. 

The judges will be looking for teams, projects and individuals who have made a significant contribution to enhancing quality and ensuring university estates provide best value to support the institutional mission of promoting professionalism, efficiency and effectiveness. 

The Awards provide an excellent opportunity to showcase sector achievements and allows everyone to demonstrate and learn from the very best practice taking place in HE institutions today.

AUDE Chair, Trevor Humphreys said, “The AUDE awards provide an opportunity to showcase the tangible benefits of excellent estates management which benefits both students and staff and contributes to the sustainability of universities in a tough climate.

“Last year saw a significant volume of high quality submissions form those across the sector. The judging panel had a tough job in picking the eventual winner in each category and there were a number of highly commended entrants too. We are certain that this year we will again receive plenty of high quality submissions.  

“The AUDE Awards are a chance to celebrate the excellent work that members do across all aspects of estates and facilities and so I want to encourage as many colleagues as possible to submit their entries.”
