its members to rate suppliers based on account management, pricing, level of quality, breadth of offerings and overall satisfaction.

New in 2009, Corporate United also presented an award to Weichert Relocations Resources, Inc. for outstanding growth. Additionally, individual awards were given to outstanding supplier representatives Jerome Gerber of Volt Workforce Solutions and Bill Bostwick of OfficeMax.

2009 Member Awards
Corporate United honored two members this year – Pentair, Inc. for excellence in advocacy and Progressive Insurance for excellence in participation. These two companies exemplify a solid commitment to the Corporate United membership.

The success of Corporate United is based upon taking advantage of our potential for massive leverage. Pentair, Inc. has gone to great lengths to realize that potential by participating on exploratory, sourcing, and supplier management committees.

Interaction among members is a major part of the Corporate United value proposition. Progressive Insurance is a mainstay on the message board and at events, and acts as a referral to members, prospective members and suppliers.

We look forward to many more years of partnership with Pentair, Inc. and Progressive Insurance; congratulations.
