The Best Managed Companies programme is a competition and seal of quality for successful medium-sized companies. The vision: to build a national and global ecosystem of excellently managed SMEs.
A key unique selling point of the Best Managed Companies programme is its international nature: this programme was launched by Deloitte in Canada in the 1990s and has now been successfully introduced in more than 45 countries. The basic requirements for participation in the Best Managed Companies Award are a minimum annual turnover of 150 million euros and the company's headquarters in Germany.In addition, the companies must be medium-sized or family-run and be able to demonstrate successful economic development in recent years.
Each participating company goes through a multi-stage application process, in which the first step is to complete an online questionnaire. In this process, basic company data is requested and the general positioning in relation to the core content areas of the award is analysed.In the second phase, following an initial assessment of the application documents, selected companies are invited to a personal interview. In interviews lasting several hours, the companies are analysed intensively in terms of their performance in the four core areas of strategy, productivity and innovation, culture and commitment, and finance and governance.
Based on the application documents and the evaluation of the personal interviews, the expert advisory board of the Best Managed Companies Award defines the shortlist, from which a jury consisting of renowned representatives from business, science and the media then selects the award winners. The initiators of the award are Deloitte Private, UBS, the Federation of German Industries (BDI) and the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.
