LAKE MILLS, Wis. - April 17, 2006
Vision Fitness was recently honored by Microsoft® with a 2006 Pinnacle Award for outstanding business achievements. Vision Fitness received recognition for its Pinnacle Award for Overall Excellence at Convergence 2006, an annual Microsoft customer conference held recently in Dallas.
The Pinnacle Awards, established in 1997, are presented yearly and recognize Microsoft Dynamics customers who have achieved notable accomplishments with their Microsoft Dynamics applications. The winners were nominated by Microsoft Dynamics customers, partners and team members.
The 2006 Pinnacle Awards were presented in nine categories: Innovation, Customer Service, Evangelism, Teamwork, Education, Fast Track, Microsoft Technologies, Global Implementation and Overall Excellence.
A business cannot be nominated by a Microsoft Dynamics partner specifically for the Overall Excellence category. The winner of this award is a decision made solely by Microsoft. They looked at everything that Vision Fitness had implemented within the last year and found that Vision Fitness achieved great successes using Microsoft software that spanned many of their Pinnacle Award categories.
Vision Fitness works with Microsoft Certified reselling partner SVA Consulting LLC of Madison, Wisconsin. SVA actually nominated Vision Fitness for the Excellence in Customer Service award. Vision Fitness qualified for this award since they initiated Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software into their organization within a year ago. Everyone was pleasantly surprised when Microsoft awarded Vision Fitness with the Overall Excellence award!
"This is very exciting news for Vision Fitness! Credit goes to all employees who have been working hard everyday to make CRM, Great Plains, and the Panatracker bar-coding systems vital management tools for our business," states Cindy Miller, Vision Fitness Controller.
Microsoft Dynamics is a line of financial, customer relationship and supply chain management solutions that helps businesses work more effectively.
Vision Fitness began as a division of Trek® Bicycle Company, one of the world's largest manufacturers of quality outdoor bicycles. In 1996, Vision Fitness was spun off by Trek's management team to better focus on the specialized fitness industry. Their fitness products earn "Best Buy" awards from reputable consumer review publications year after year. Information on products and reviews can be found on their website, www.visionfitness.com.
