Sponsored by Circuits Assembly, the Service Excellence Awards (SEAs) for Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) Providers and Electronics Assembly Suppliers honor companies excelling in the crucial area of customer service. The program, now in its 18th year, functions as a way for participants to see how they compare to peers in customer satisfaction. 

Online responses are collected from a list of customers you provide to determine your company's level of customer satisfaction in various categories. Customer responses and ratings are calculated by an independent tabulator and summarized in a comprehensive, confidential report presented to you. Use these reports to improve operations and implement new ways of ensuring customer satisfaction - before customers are out the door to another company!

Entrants with the highest ratings are honored at an awards ceremony held at Apex in Las Vegas. All winners are featured in a Circuits Assembly article, on the Circuits Assembly Website, and receive an award commemorating their achievement. If your company wins, the accomplishment may be advertised to the extent you desire!

Each year, Circuits Assembly donates proceeds from participants' entry fees to the SMTA's Charles Hutchins Educational Grant. To date, more than $50,000 has been awarded to industry grants.

The 2010 Service Excellence Awards reception will be held April 6 on the trade show floor at Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino.
