The field service sector is one that can pride itself on embracing new ideas and consistently raising the bar in terms of what great service looks like…

Whether it is the introduction and adoption of new emerging technology such as head-mounted computers and augmented reality to embrace effective remote service, a shift to servitization that has disrupted the way service contracts are sold within an industry or a radical departure from the status quo of recruitment to engaging with a new generation of field service engineers directly to overcome the ageing workforce challenge, the pages of fieldservicenews.com are full of exceptional innovation in our industry. 

Indeed, each year we are seeing new ideas driven by passionate people who are all playing a role in driving our industry forwards together. In this award category we are seeking to shine a spotlight on the innovators and pioneers who have helped do so in the last twelve months. 

Some potential innovations we are seeking in the European Field Service Pioneer of the Year award include:

• Genuine digital transformation that has revolutionised an aspect of a service operation
• The development of an advanced service element within your service portfolio
• The introduction of a new service offering into your portfolio
• A successful approach to recruitment and development 
• Closer integration of service and other business functions (e.g sales)

These are just a handful of ideas to get you started so remember your nomination is not limited to or restricted to the list above.

All nominations for your field service pioneers should be based on clear and specific reasons why you think your nomination stands out as an example of excellent leadership within the field service sector.
