Over 30 years ago, Norman “Chip” Separk, founder of CS Recognition Solutions, began his career in the recognition industry. As an employee of a large recognition company, Chip studied the fundamentals of performance improvement and recognition. His earliest focus was on employee service awards, a field in which he learned the importance of hands-on customer service. His entrepreneurial desire and
the need to bring a more personalized level of service led him to create a recognition business of his own. Over the years, Chip has seen the recognition industry evolve from standard certificate and lapel pin awards into more participant-centric choice and point-based programs. The tools to deliver the programs have progressed to high-powered online platforms with advanced performance reporting and tracking capabilities. Through all of the changes, Chip’s message remained clear: Always put our clients at the center of all that we do, and ensure that each of our partners and manufacturers uphold the same values. It is our goal to exceed our customer’s expectations by helping them realize and surpass their own organizational objectives. Today, CS Recognition Solutions continues to operate as a family-owned business, and the team members remain committed to honoring Chip’s vision. It is through this dedication that CS Recognition Solutions remains a reputable and successful recognition and performance improvement company. We have established strong ties to organizations within our community, and have successful national campaigns as well. We have also partnered with organizations to provide international capabilities offering worldwide recognition programs to almost every country. Our client list includes top organizations in areas such as pharmaceuticals, banking, manufacturing, biotechnology, construction and engineering.
