The ATSI Award of Excellence program provides a quality control assessment of telemessaging call centers. It measures over 400 data points for each participating company. Those call centers achieving an overall score of 80 percent or greater earn the ATSI Award of Excellence. The Award of Excellence is a cumulative program, with many call centers earning recognition for multiple years, which is a verification of their ongoing attention to providing consistently high quality.
