The tt110 Awards
VNI Consultants has been privileged to remain a competitive contender and an active participant in the tt100 Awards Programme for the past consecutive terms (from 2015 to date). The tt100 Awards Programme is a joint venture initiative between The Department of Science and Innovation, ESCOM and The Da Vinci Institute for Technology Management.
Accolades
The TT100 Awards programme is focused on identifying the true South African role models who through innovation, tenacity and a passionate belief in people have been able to take their organisations to new levels of competitiveness. The programme seeks to identify role models who are either users or developers of technology. The entrants to the programme include a wide spectrum of operations in diversified industries. They exemplify the reality that irrespective of what business you are in, you cannot escape the reality that technology will alter your world. The awards programme recognises these organisations as sustainable high-performance operations. Through the years of running the programme, information pertaining to what constitutes a so-called `technologically excellent’ organisation has emerged. The key drivers which determine the potential for these organisations to maintain and improve their competitive advantage are based on the Da Vinci Institute's TIPS Framework.
tt100 Awards 2020
The 2020 Rewards Programme afforded VNI Consultants the opportunity to present research concluded for an alternative framework towards enhancement of continuous change as an example of its practical business application in the tt100 Awards Programme. In the 2020 rewards programme, VNI Consultants received two awards from a possible six; the ESCOM Award for Excellence in the Management of Systems, and The Director General’s Award for Overall Excellence in the category Emerging Enterprises. We were finalists in the other four.
tt100 Overall Excellence (2020 Winner)
tt100 Management of Systems (2020 Winner)
This is the process of synthesis, where systemic integration of all organisational activities and performance is used to solve unique problems, and create solutions, where hyper-competitive redesign of the landscape occurs. This includes internal synovation and organisational ecology that allows the parts to become greater than the whole.
tt100 Management of People (2020 Finalist)
The management of people is all about the human technology interface. It embraces both the employee and the end user. It is about the processes that organisations deploy in the development of their human capital, and how they retain and re-skill existing employees, how they incentivise their people and how they plan for succession to ensure organisational longevity.
tt100 Management of Innovation (2020 Finalist)
The management of innovation is all about how an organisation stimulates and capitalises on the ideation process to develop an innovative product or service which has either commercial or social value. It’s about hard metrics such as income generated from new products, processes or services as well as success rates in commercialising new offerings.
tt100 Management of Technology (2020 Finalist)
The management of technology is all about the 'tools' and metrics organisations use to gain competitive advantage. Simplistically it is "a way of doing things better" and may involve the use of anything from computers and hi-tech, to simple hand held tools. In this context, we refer to the small "t" in technology where organisations manage their technology to best position their products or services to maximise their market share.
