Standout government, health and finance IT projects revealed.

We are excited to announce the 2021 iTnews Benchmark Awards finalists.

Announcing the 2021 iTnews Benchmark Awards finalists

iTnews received more than 90 nominations for IT projects that took place in a year like no other.

They include federal and state government projects enabling critical Covid-19 response activities, challenging IT risk and consumer data projects by banks, a local government effort to democratise the use of data, and a web application that has saved Australian families millions of dollars.

Nominees also include significant projects in the telecommunications, construction and energy sectors, among others.

Some of these projects were completed under extreme pressure during the pandemic. Some involve systems used by thousands of employees and millions of citizens.

Thank you to all entrants. We received many nominees in each category and separating them was not straightforward. Some nominees only just missed out, which does not mean they were without merit.

[Update] Watch the finalists explain their nominated projects here. The announcement of the iTnews Benchmark Awards winners will take place in late March.
