Oshkosh Corporation, (NYSE:OSK), announces today that it has
been honored by the Defense Security Service (DSS) with the 2016
James S. Cogswell Outstanding Industrial Security Achievement Award
for its facility located in Oshkosh, Wis.
The award recognizes industrial security excellence and is one
of the most esteemed awards given by the Defense Security Service,
a federal security agency of the U.S. Department of Defense. Of the
more than 13,000 cleared facilities, less than one percent, or only
42 facilities, received this award.
“We’re proud to be recognized among the elite companies selected
to receive this prestigious award,” said Wilson R. Jones, Oshkosh
Corporation president and chief executive officer. “This award
highlights our commitment to serving our role in the national
security mission of the Defense Security Service. Through
disciplined security procedures and training, our employees
demonstrate an exceptional commitment to managing security
procedures and information as required by the Department of
Defense.”
Facilities may be nominated for the award by their assigned
industrial security representative only if they have a minimum of
two consecutive superior industrial security review ratings and
also show a commitment to excellence and innovation in overall
security program management, implementation and oversight.
The James S. Cogswell awards were presented earlier today at the
52nd annual National Classification Management Society (NCMS)
Society of Industrial Security Professionals seminar in Nashville,
Tenn.
