At AOCC, we have integrated peer nominations into our process. The more recognition a team member receives, the more points they earn towards winning a High Flyer award. This has fostered genuine cohesion, inclusivity and teamwork across the department.

Our frontline workers are the core of what we do and the core of our customer experience. We launched Microsoft Teams for all employees. We have the Awardco interface added to the platform, so our employees can now recognise each other directly from their phones on their app while they're working. If they see a great job, they can do an immediate shout out and make that difference.

When we set up a demo, the customer service representative made us feel like a client already. He made us feel valued and was patient with us throughout the process. The service we received from the Awardco team far and away exceeded our expectations and really sold us on your company.

Seventy-five percent of our employees are out in the field, so how do we get them excited and engaged? The safety programmes really got them energised. They had the opportunity to earn a lot of points, but they also received meaningful recognition. I was really impressed by how much our login engagement increased over time.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does Awardco help manufacturers support deskless and plant-floor employees?
 

Awardco helps manufacturers create recognition experiences that are easier to access across plant, warehouse, field, and other deskless environments. This gives companies a more practical way to support participation across the workforce instead of relying on a recognition experience built only for office-based employees.

‍

Does Awardco offer mobile access for manufacturing employees?
 

Yes. Awardco offers mobile-friendly access and a mobile app experience that helps employees participate on the go. This is especially important for manufacturers that need recognition to be easier to access across shifts, sites, and workforce types.

Can Awardco support recognition across multiple plants or locations?
 

Yes. Awardco helps manufacturers create a more consistent recognition programme across locations while still supporting local flexibility where needed. That makes it easier to scale recognition across plants, teams, and business units within one broader platform strategy.

Can Awardco help replace manual service awards or outdated reward programmes?
 

Yes. Awardco helps manufacturers move away from manual reward processes, disconnected workflows, and older recognition programmes by bringing recognition, reward choice, and programme administration into one platform. That gives teams a more scalable and easier-to-manage approach over time.

Can Awardco help recognition feel fairer across hourly and salaried teams?
 

Awardco helps manufacturers create a more accessible and consistent recognition experience across different workforce groups. That can help organisations reduce the risk of recognition being concentrated only among office-based or more connected employees.

Can Awardco help manufacturers improve engagement and retention?
 

Awardco helps manufacturers create a more visible, consistent employee recognition experience across the workforce. This can support stronger engagement, reinforce culture, and help recognition become a more active part of the employee experience over time.
