Enterprising and innovative engineering companies of all sizes are being urged to apply now for the 2002 Queen's Awards for Enterprise - the UK's highest accolade for outstanding business success.

The 2002 round of the UK's own annual 'Oscars for Enterprise' was officially launched this week.

The scheme recognises and rewards exceptional achievements and advances in all areas of British business.

Engineering winners in the latest Queen's Awards, announced on 21 April 2001, included Miko Oilfield Supplies Ltd, Mechatherm International Ltd, Process Systems Enterprise Ltd, Rotork Controls Ltd, Melles Griot Limited, Sortex Ltd, Tritech International Ltd and Buro Happold Ltd.

Organisers are hoping their success will spur on more businesses from the sector to investigate and enter the 2002 Awards.

David Moore, head of The Queen's Awards Office said: "We know there are a lot of talented firms out there, and we want them to come forward and receive the recognition they deserve.

"Companies from the engineering sector have done particularly well in this year's Awards - let's build on that success for next year and showcase the UK's world-beating talent in this area." Any type of business unit can apply for a Queen's Award in one or more of three categories: International Trade, Innovation and Sustainable Development.

The minimum requirements are that entrants employ at least two people, be based in the UK and be high achievers in their field.

There is no limit to the number of Awards that can be made in any year, though the standard required to win is high.

The right to use the coveted Queens Awards Emblem for five years is one of the direct benefits enjoyed by winners.

The prestige of being associated with the Queen's Awards also provides them with a valuable promotional and marketing tool in an increasingly competitive domes and global economy.

Even entrants who do not win receive a feedback report detailing the strengths and weaknesses of their application, helping them plan for future Award entries.

The deadline for next year's Awards is 31 October 2001.

Would-be winners should phone 0870 5 13 44 86 or visit www.queensawards.org.uk for an entry pack.

The winners of the 2002 Queen's Awards for Enterprise will be announced on 21 April, 2002 - The Queen's personal birthday.

In the following months, each winner will receive the Award at their own premises from the Lord Lieutenant.

There is also a special reception at Buckingham Palace, hosted by The Queen, for three representatives from each winning business.
