Nortek Control has announced that its Builder Services Program has been recognised as the Best Education or Support Program for 2011 by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) and has received the Mark of Excellence Award from the organisation.

The program is designed to provide all the tools, marketing, products, staff, support and education to help integrators and builders connect, collaborate and provide homeowners the ideal integrated smart home system and technologies for their residence across the US, Canada and beyond.

It includes a combination of online, live and physical components to help both builders and dealers excel. Some of the program pillars are co-branded marketing collateral, videos, education, event support, products and a dedicated team designed to help all parties make it easier to share the home technology benefits with homebuyers, and to make it simple for them to understand and purchase the right smart home automation package.

“To be singled out for delivering the industry’s most comprehensive smart home technology support is a great honour from the industry’s most knowledgeable panel of CTA judges. This award is the result of our exceptional team’s dedication to helping the integrator and builder community take ownership of this important category and providing them with all the tools that are vital to success in offering smart home solutions to their buyers,” Nortek Control director of builder services Bret Jacob says.

“Our team is constantly striving to bring our people and products together in ways that enhance and serve the building industry’s ever-evolving needs.”

In a separate announcement, Nortek Control shared that the 2GIG EDGE Security Panel has been awarded a Mark of Excellence Award from CTA and acknowledged as the 2021 Security and Surveillance Product of the Year.

“We’re proud of the Nortek Control Builder Services Program and receiving this award is extremely gratifying as it spans our control, power/AV, access and security products and brings them together to meet the demands of today’s smart homes,” Nortek Control vice president of marketing Richard Pugnier says.

“We’re equally honoured that our soon to be released 2GIG EDGE Security Panel – which is included in the Builder Program offerings – has also been awarded a Mark of Excellence Award for the Security and Surveillance Product of the Year.”
