ACSESS Chapter of the Year Award
National Capital Chapter
ACSESS members in National Capital Chapter were both thrilled and honoured to
receive the 2009 Chapter of the Year Award. Preparation of our chapter submission
was in itself a significant undertaking as we wanted to ensure that the documents
provided clearly conveyed the exceptional commitment made by many chapter members
over a long period of time. While efforts in our Nation’s Capital have focused on the
relationship with PWGSC, the procurement process and most importantly the standard
of service that can be offered by all staffing services regardless of company size,
other chapters may have different areas in which they have excelled. Without exception,
however, recognition of the dedication of ACSESS members at the grassroots level is
a wonderful way to be able to say thank you to each and every one for their continued
support. We accepted this award with pride and it was a great morale booster as
chapter members prepared for their next show of unity on behalf of our industry.
