2005 Excellence in Service Award

Speech presented by Julie Tande at June 7, 2005 CFSC Awards banquet

The Excellence in Service is our most coveted individual award. This is the award that always has the most nominations. The frontline workers receiving this award have always had tough competition. In a reversal from the other awards, this recipient nailed four of the five categories. She missed winning the fifth category by a single point.

Our recipient is a working supervisor. She supervisors the child support unit, fraud investigations & recoveries, TANF-medicaid & Food stamps as well as handling all the child support bookkeeping. She has spent many hours on the CBMS pilot and roll-out and has managed to keep the child support ledgers initiated and the balances correct down to the penny.

She has streamlined our contempt process, our docket prep, and our court procedures and business practices. She researches and seeks out new technology and tools to assist her staff. She encourages us to work independently and self-directed. Her management style has helped us to work even harder to make her proud.

The ACSES liaison, guru, master of many hats, and the 2005 Excellence in Service recipient,...
