Celebrating the 20 finalists from this year’s Innovation & Transformation awards. Trailblazers who are redefining workforce planning, customer experience, and operational excellence. From AI to culture change, these organisations are proving that bold thinking drives real-world results.

With clearer processes and information needed, Water Plus built Oasis - one simple knowledge hub. Clear steps, smart guides and knowledge gaps addressed. Now, staff feel confident, training’s faster, and customers get informed responses - first time.

TSB launched Video Banking so people could speak to advisors without leaving home. It worked. Customers loved it, staff felt more efficient, and the personal touch didn’t get lost —just delivered differently.

Outdated systems and manual tasks were slowing things down. So Guinness shook things up — blending video calls, automation, and smarter planning. Wait times dropped, staff felt more balanced, and customer ratings shot up.

OVO mixed AI, automation, and human support to make planning and service slicker. Teams have more time to do meaningful work, and customers get faster answers. It’s a smarter, simpler way to keep things moving.
