The Deloitte Best Managed Company award acknowledges the achievements of management teams, and not just individuals. The accolade recognises overall business performance based on the criteria of Strategy, Capability and Innovation, Culture and Commitment as well as Governance and Financial Performance. Judges examine every company based on these four equally weighted pillars to select a winner.

The Best Managed Companies Programme originated in Canada in 1993, with Ireland’s program being the second longest-running program, introduced in 2008. In addition to Ireland and Canada, the programme is currently run in a total of 48 countries across 4 continents.
