💡 Why Use the Competition Management Template

The Competition Management template enables end-to-end digital management covering core processes like registration, review, and data monitoring. It helps organizers achieve efficient event operations while providing participants with a seamless experience. By significantly reducing manual management costs and the risk of information omission, it ensures fairness and transparency, empowering organizers to track real-time dynamics and make data-driven decisions.

Features:

• Cross-Regional Event Collaboration: Supports multilingual registration forms (e.g., Chinese/English) to facilitate global participant management for international event organizers.
• Fairness-Oriented Academic Competitions: Implements blind review modes and scoring record tracking to ensure impartiality in Preliminary Review and innovation competitions. The traceable review process minimizes dispute risks.

👉 How the Template Works

• Successful Competition Registration Reminder and Notice: When participants submit applications, the system automatically sends confirmation emails (including organization name, schedule, and organizer contact info) to participants. It also pushes registration alerts to organizer team leaders via multi-channel support (Feishu/DingTalk/email).
• Submission: Embed the form on WeChat official accounts, event websites, or other web platforms. Participants submit personal/team information (name, contact details, project description, work attachments, etc.) through the form.
• Database: Stores all submitted registration information and materials from participants.
• Preliminary Review: Reviewers access anonymized works in the "Preliminary Review" list, with participant names, institutions, and other personal info hidden—only work IDs and content are displayed.
• Dashboard: Dynamically visualizes trends in registration numbers, regional distribution, work type ratios, score statistics, and other key metrics.
