WASHINGTON, June 7, 2018 — Buchanan & Edwards Inc., a technology leader creating transformative solutions for government customers, has won a Bronze Stevie Award from The 2018 American Business Awards for its Marine Corps Recruiting Information Support System (MCRISS) Recruiter Client Tool (RCT).

Buchanan & Edwards began work in June 2016 with the U.S. Marine Corps to create this tool, which is a high-performance, on/off-line native Windows application giving Marine Corps recruiters around the nation the capability to perform their critical recruiting mission in disconnected environments such as schools, shopping malls, and other ad hoc recruiting venues.

“First, we are honored to be a partner with the United States Marine Corps for the totality of the MCRISS project. Recruiting is a top priority for the Marine Corps and Buchanan & Edwards recognizes the gravity of that mission and is honored to play a small role in supporting it,” said Dennis Kelly, president and CEO. “Developing the RCT solution gave us the opportunity to showcase our capabilities and to create an innovative solution to help Marine Corps recruiters enhance productivity and improve efficiency as they execute that challenging mission of finding the next generation of Marines.”

More than 3,700 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories, including Startup of the Year, Executive of the Year, Best New Product or Service of the Year, Marketing Campaign of the Year, Live Event of the Year, and App of the Year, among others. Buchanan & Edwards was nominated in the New Product of the Year – Software – Human Capital Management Solution category.

“The nominations submitted for The 2018 American Business Awards were outstanding.  The competition was intense, and those recognized as Stevie Award winners should be immensely proud of this accomplishment,” said Michael Gallagher, president and founder of the Stevie Awards.
