AWARD 5 is a legacy system which was retired in August 2022.
This means access to AWARD 5 is not available "on demand". However, we acknowledge some of our customers have data in AWARD 5 they need to refer to from time to time, on these occasions we can "spin up" the servers for a limited period.
How to request access:

Expected time scales to action your request:
If you have an existing user account in AWARD 5 we aim to have your access request expedited within 4 working hours from receipt of the information requested above. If you have requested new users, this may take longer.
For all users: Access will only be granted for 48 hours, after this time access will be automatically revoked. If you have been unable to complete your tasks in this time, please contact the helpdesk again requesting an extension (another 48 hours).
We have taken these actions to ensure the security of the AWARD 5 service while it is live.
