"This award recognizes the quality and excellence of the country's top UL-listed central stations, which operate in the highest professional manner and make significant contributions to the alarm monitoring industry," said Steve Doyle, executive director of CSAA. "The Diebold EMC has met these standards, while consistently providing exceptional service to its customers."

Diebold's EMCs are UL-listed national alarm monitoring centers, providing around-the-clock services to businesses in the financial, retail, commercial and government markets.

Diebold's CSAA Five-Diamond certified EMC continuously searches for ways to improve its business, including the recent conversion of 500,000 customer records to electronic files to provide a quick and efficient way of storing customer data. In addition, EMC associates are required to complete central station operator training programs provided by CSAA. Diebold assisted in the development of CSAA's Advanced Operator Online Training course.
