The Albuquerque District’s contracting team brought home the 2010 USACE Excellence in Contracting Award in the Customer Service award category. It was presented at the FY10 National Contracting Organization Excellence in Contracting awards ceremony Dec. 8, held during the NCO Leadership Summit in Grapevine, Texas.

Leslie Molina, David Kam and Lt. Col. Williams accepted the Customer Service award on behalf of the office and District.

The award is based on fostering a climate and spirit of teamwork producing unprecedented operational results; significantly streamlining or improving the delivery of contract services, processes or support to customers (either internal or external); and providing a level of performance and care above and beyond that normally expected, which averted a detrimental outcome for a customer.

Other nominees for the award included: Jamie Jerde, Europe District; the HNC Business Operations Branch at the Huntsville Engineering and Support Center; Paulette Phillips, New Orleans District; Suzanne Wright Jetton, Fort Worth District; Carole M. Householder, Pittsburgh District; Maj. Christopher Emery, Afghanistan Engineer District - North, and Donna West, Alaska District.
