How Exhibitor Priority Points Are Calculated

Exhibitor booth selection for the 2026 Joint Expo & Operator Days is based on a priority point system. Points are awarded for participation and sponsorship over the past five years.

1) Define the scoring window

  • We use the most recent five years of Joint Expo activity.

  • This cycle: Joint Expo years 2021–2025 are counted.

  • Association conference points are counted for the most recent year only: 2025 (MWEA in June and MI-AWWA in September).

2) Earn points from Joint Expo (per year, 2021–2025)

  • 1 point per Joint Expo booth purchased that year (e.g., 3 booths = 3 points).

  • +1 point if you sponsored the Tuesday Mixer that year.

  • These JE points accumulate across the five-year window. Points older than five years drop off automatically each new cycle.

3) Earn points from Association Conferences (2025 only)

For the current calculation, only 2025 MWEA and MI-AWWA count:

  • Exhibiting: +1 point for each conference (MWEA and MI-AWWA).

  • Sponsoring (tiered, stacks with exhibiting):

    • Bronze = +1

    • Silver = +2

    • Gold = +3

    • Platinum = +4

    • Example: If you exhibit at MI-AWWA (1) and are a Gold sponsor (+3), you earn 4 points from MI-AWWA for 2025. Do the same math separately for MWEA.
4) Calculate your total

  1. Sum your Joint Expo points across 2021–2025 (booths + mixer sponsorships).

  2. Add 2025 conference points (MWEA + MI-AWWA exhibit/sponsor).

  3. Total Points = Five-year JE Points + 2025 Conference Points.

  4. Exhibitors are ranked by Total Points for booth selection order.

    • (Ties are handled using standard tie-break procedures; the scoring rules above aren’t changed by tie-breaks.)

Example 

  • JE booths:

    • 2021: 1 booth (1)

    • 2022: 2 booths + mixer (2+1=3)

    • 2023: 1 booth (1)

    • 2024: 3 booths (3)

    • 2025: 2 booths + mixer (2+1=3)

    • JE subtotal: 1+3+1+3+3 = 11

  • 2025 conferences:

    • MWEA: Exhibit (1) + Silver sponsor (+2) = 3

    • MI-AWWA: Exhibit (1) + Gold sponsor (+3) = 4

    • Conference subtotal (2025 only): 3+4 = 7

  • Total Points: 11 + 7 = 18

Your Points Statement will be shared before booth sales open on Monday, October 20, 2025, and will include a breakdown of how your organization’s total was calculated.
