On September 20, 2011, the Foundation Supportworks SmartJack™ System was awarded with the Gold Innovation Prize by the Connecticut Quality Improvement Award Partnership.  The SmartJack™ System is a supplemental support system used to stabilize and level sagging floor joists and girders within a crawlspace and over 21,000 systems have been installed in the United States and Canada since 2009.

The Connecticut Quality Improvement Award (CQIA) recognizes the most innovative manufacturing and service companies that excel in managing quality improvement for business success and growth. Since beginning in 1986 as America’s first state level quality award using the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award for Performance Excellence criteria, the Connecticut Quality Improvement Award Partnership’s mission has been to improve the economic vitality of manufacturers, service companies, health care and educational institutions, and non-profit organizations.

Foundation Supportworks is honored to be recognized with this award and is committed to our pursuit to be extraordinary with support, service, training and products that inspire success.
