- OSA Nomination Information and Form

The Engineers’ Club of Philadelphia seeks nominations for the Outstanding Service Awards. Two separate awards may be presented for service above and beyond the call of duty:
• Outstanding Service to Engineering
• Outstanding Service to the Community

The awards are to be given for career achievement, not for a short term effort or accomplishment. This will allow the accomplishments of the award recipient to have stood the test of time. Service should be for more than a single organization.

The details of both awards include:

1. The service or contributions to engineering or the community should be primarily for clients, agencies, or organizations within the area served by the Delaware Valley Engineers Week Council and the Engineers Club of Philadelphia, (Philadelphia, Bucks, Delaware, Chester, and Montgomery counties in southeastern Pennsylvania and Salem, Gloucester, Burlington, Camden, and Mercer counties in southern New Jersey). However, service or contributions outside of the Delaware Valley is considered.
2. Award recipients will be honored at the Awards and Proclamation Luncheon and at the Celebration of Engineering Reception.
3. Nominators are asked to prepare the nomination without the knowledge of the nominee. The nominee’s family and/or colleagues should be asked to provide input for the nomination package. Once the selection is made, the OSA Chair will notify the nominators and the award recipient(s).
4. The Committee’s Advisory Committee, composed of former Delaware Valley Engineers of the Year, will make the selection.
5. An award does not need to be made each year; it will only be presented if the selection committee determines that the nominations are of such quality as to justify the award. Only one award of each type is to be made a year.
6. Former Delaware Valley Engineers of the Year have been honored for their achievements and are not eligible for this award.
