I can assure you that technological excellence has been the primary aspect the judges have looked at in past years. We have asked for other items (process photos, website, etc) to both provide some context for the submissions, and also to help differentiate the top 10% of the teams.

If you are using good engineering practices, documenting them, facilitiating the tools you have, and can present this well, you are doing everything you can to compete for the award.

Our goal for the peer judging aspect was to generate excitement and have everyone feel they were a part of the decision.

Of course, any feedback in the process is appreciated. This award is for your hard work!

Regards,
Pete
