Case Study: Red Dot Design Award streamlines award workflow and reduces manual effort with 4ALLPORTAL

Red Dot Design Award Efficient award allocation with data All-in-One Solution from 4ALLPORTAL

Red Dot GmbH & Co. KG in Essen runs the global Red Dot Design Award, evaluating over 5,000 submissions from more than 55 countries each year. Their legacy tools forced manual data entry, inconsistent text and image formats, no central import/export, and email-based approval loops, creating time-consuming preparation for print, exhibitions and web, and risking staffing bottlenecks and missed deadlines.

By implementing 4ALLPORTAL’s on‑premise All‑in‑One solution (DAM + PIM with Workflow Automation), entrants receive logins for drag‑and‑drop uploads, data is centralized and structured, feedback can be given directly on records, and approvals trigger automated notifications. This streamlined workflow significantly cut manual effort, scaled capacity to handle growing entries, and ensured timely production of yearbooks, exhibitions and the online showroom.
