Participation and Assessment

Organized by BEA, MLab, and HMI, Zero Distance Excellence (ZeroDX) celebrates and showcases organizations that have demonstrated exceptional achievements in innovation, autonomy, and customer-centricity. The criteria are based on a multitude of factors that capture the essence of Zero Distance and the principles that underpin its success. 

Organizations from diverse sectors and industries are encouraged to participate. This includes public, private and social organizations. Whether your organization is a large multinational corporation or a small startup, if you have embraced transformative practices to remove the boundaries between value-creators in the organizations and the customers, we want to hear from you.

To help, we provide the Zero Distance Organizational Maturity Assessment System with which to review where your organization has minimized its distance to your users and where it can improve to achieve Zero Distance in hopes of achieving value creation for all in your ecosystem.

There are three assessment dimensions, including level of organizational autonomy, user value and value-added sharing driving force.
