"We've won this award because of the selfless spirit and passion of our most valuable asset, our dedicated and talented people, who excel at ensuring customer success and have an unwavering commitment to quality."
Mr. Mogilewsky added, "The key to our success is that our employees understand where the company is going, how they fit in, and how they can make a difference."
