SAN ANTONIO — The winners of the 2006 Self-Service World Outstanding Achievement Awards were announced Friday morning in a ceremony held at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center.
The awards presentation, part of the Self-Service & Kiosk Show, took place immediately after the show's keynote speaker, When Customers Talk author T. Scott Gross.
Applications were submitted in six categories: retail, financial, healthcare, public sector, travel & hospitality, and a catchall "other" category. In addition to the category awards, two special awards were given: a Readers Choice award, chosen by the readers of Self-Service World magazine and SelfServiceWorld.com; and the Platinum Award, given to the deployment with the highest overall point total from the judges.
