Lexington, KY – September 4, 2008-Ed Crowley, founder and president of the Photizo Group, has received a prestigious "Best of Visions" Award for an article on innovation in Visions magazine, the official publication of the Product Development and Management Association (PDMA).

Crowley joins fellow award winners Kevin Dehoff and Barry Jaruzelski of Booz Allen Hamilton (BAH) for a series of three 2007 innovation articles. The series included two reports co-written by Dehoff and Jaruzelski based on highlights from BAH's annual global innovation studies, plus an interview with Kevin Dehoff written by Ed Crowley, on outsourcing in the high-tech arena.

"Winning this award for best article is a big honor, especially since the area of outsourcing is so important to our customers and contacts in the MPS market. We have helped increase the reliable information available to help professionals make the right decisions about managed print services and other outsourcing opportunities," Crowley said.

The award will be presented at PDMA's International Conference in Orlando on September 16. Judges for the award were former PDMA Presidents Bob Brentin and Chris Miller. The article, "Outsourcing in High-Tech" by Kevin Dehoff and Ed Crowley, March 2007, is available on the Visions pages of the PDMA website (www.pdma.org.).
