BUILD YOUR OWN PROGRAM

Who It's Built For

Some organizations have outgrown out-of-the-box recognition. Their workforce spans multiple regions, brands, or business units. Their recognition workflows need to mirror their governance structure. Their employees have different experiences, milestones, and moments that matter.

Build Your Own Program is for those organizations. If your culture is complex, your recognition program needs to be intelligent enough to match it.

Best for organizations that need to:

Design a fully custom recognition ecosystem from the ground up
Support multi-brand, multi-region, or multi-division employee populations
Align recognition workflows closely with existing HR and EX strategies
Reflect a unique organizational identity, mission, and values structure
Build governance controls that meet corporate compliance requirements

What It Empowers

Configurable Recognition Journeys

Create distinct recognition touchpoints for different employee segments, roles, and milestones. Frontline workers, remote teams, and corporate employees don't have identical experiences. Their recognition shouldn't be identical either.

Regional and Cultural Customization

Adapt program rules, reward options, and communications for local cultural nuances across geographies. Global reach, local resonance.

Governance Flexibility

Set budget controls, eligibility rules, and program logic that align with corporate policy. Recognition that's meaningful and compliant.

Tailored Reward Options

Supplement our global marketplace with custom catalog options that reflect your brand, your values, and what your employees actually want.

Common Questions

Is Build Your Own Program right for us if we're mid-market, not enterprise?

Size isn't the deciding factor. If your recognition needs are complex — multi-location, multi-brand, or tightly tied to existing HR workflows — this tier is designed for you, regardless of headcount.

Can we start with a simpler solution and move to Build Your Own later?

Yes. Many organizations begin with Everyday Recognition or R&R 360 and evolve into deeper customization as their program matures.

What does the design process look like?

Our team works with you to understand your culture, governance requirements, and employee experience goals before configuring anything. You get a program designed for your organization, not adapted from a template.

How long does implementation take?

It depends on the complexity of your configuration. Our team will give you a realistic timeline during the scoping process — and stay with you through every phase..
