Awards & Recognition
We're not in business to garnish awards, but it's nice to be noticed all the same.
2005 winner: "superquest award for network design & services"
Expedient Communications has been honored by SUPERCOMM with a SUPERQuest Award in the "Network Design and Services" category for their Ethernet Anywhere product. Ethernet Anywhere's service offers flexible, high-performance Ethernet services over last-mile copper and metro fiber.
Over the last eight years, SUPERQuest Award recipients have been selected as the best of the best in creating the most innovative new technologies and products for supplying the best new enterprise solutions. According to the Telecommunications Industry Association's President Matthew J. Flanigan, "Each year at SUPERCOMM, hundreds of technology companies exhibit and demonstrate industry-leading products and services. Of those companies, there are a handful that embody the highest degree of innovation in our field. It is those companies that we honor with the SUPERQuest Awards."
2005 finalist: "MEF US CArrier Service Provider of the Year"
Expedient Communications is proud to be named by the Metro Ethernet Forum as a finalist for the first ever United States Carrier Service Provider of the Year Awards. "This is the first time we have offered this award in the United States," comments Mark Fishburn, President of the Metro Ethernet Forum. "Our European and Asian Service Provider awards carry a lot of weight, but until now the United States have been lagging in the race to provide Carrier Ethernet Services - largely because of the more dispersed urban environment. But uptake is accelerating worldwide - with Infonetics predicting a doubling of revenue between 2004 and 2008 - and we now see a strong enough US base to justify extending this award and further accelerating competition across North America." The judging panel this year included MEF Chairman, Mark Fishburn plus industry analysts Ron Kaplan, IDC; Michael Howard, Infonetics Research; Brian Van Steen, RHK; Jeff Ogle, Current Analysis and Stan Hubbard, Heavy Reading.
