Level I
is designed for organisations that are well on their way to organisational excellence. It recognises the successful efforts they have made to implement excellence and good practice and provides you with a structured way on the journey to excellence.

 It gives the opportunity to clearly identify the strengths and areas for improvement of your organisation from an external point of view With the new scheme, we have increased the possibilities for organisations to be recognised by introducing 3star, 4star or 5star recognition. This will depend on the outcome of the external assessment achieving more than 300, 400 or 500 points. The new scheme will assure that the focus of the exercise is on the feedback by an external team, as a key driver of your next steps to improve your competitivenes.

This level has three main stages:

1.Self-assessment

The first stage, self-assessment should be performed in order to understand where one is headed. Therefore, organisations have to acquire the skills to self-assess based on recommended methods in order to identify their position. 

2.Submission Development

The second stage is to prepare a submission document and send it to award secretariat.(if the company have chosen the “Award Simulation” method for self-assessment the same submission can be used for this pupose.)

The Site visit

During the site visit the organizations will be assessed based on the fact demonstrated in submission document by independent qualified assessors and they will receive a feedback report from MeccAward.
