Pensions & Investments and the Defined Contribution Institutional Investment Association are seeking nominations for the Excellence and Innovation Awards program, now in its 11th year.
In a new twist for 2022, DC plan executives and their internal teams can now be recognized for well-executed, creative and unusual projects that help ensure a successful retirement for participants. Past awards were limited to a plan sponsor executive.
Entries are judged on innovation as well as excellence in execution.
Applicants do not have to self-select the category in which they wish to compete. A panel of industry experts will work alongside P&I editorial employees to determine whether entries should compete in either the innovation or the excellence categories.
Entries for the 2022 awards are due June 17. P&I and DCIIA are looking for programs implemented on or after Jan. 1, 2021.
Winners will be announced at P&I's West Coast Defined Contribution Conference Oct. 23-25.

Self-nominations are encouraged. Nominations also will be accepted from colleagues and people outside the organization who are familiar with the work being done by DC plan sponsors.
There is no fee to enter.
