Crawford Technologies announces the CrawfordTech Awards 2010

Could you be our winner?

15 years ago Crawford Technologies was founded by Ernie Crawford in Toronto, Canada. Today, we want to celebrate a decade and a half of innovation by launching the CrawfordTech Awards 2010. And you could be one of our winners.

We're looking for the best write-ups that detail how CrawfordTech products have helped you and your organization. Whether you are a long-term client or have just started out with CrawfordTech software, we want you to tell us the innovative, money-saving, efficiency-generating and interesting ways you have implemented our products.

These write-ups will be voted on by both the CrawfordTech community and our own panel of experts. In just over three months time, after the shortlist has been created and the voting has finished, we'll announce the winners.

Five organizations will receive the coveted CrawfordTech Award. Four of these companies will receive a donation of $400 to give to their nominated charities and the overall winner will receive a donation of $800 for their charity along with the CrawfordTech Overall Winner Award for 2010.

So, tell us your stories and you could be a winner!
