From planning to completion

How KumulAwards works

Move from initial program planning to final results through a controlled and visible awards workflow.

Implementation process

Configure the platform around the real awards process

KumulAwards should not force every organisation into one generic workflow. The implementation begins by understanding how the client currently receives entries, appoints judges, makes decisions and reports results.

Test portals, permissions, deadlines and required submissions.
