ILSCO Achieves Platinum Level in IDEA’s Bands of Excellence Program

CINCINNATI, OH – ILSCO, a charter member of Industry Data Exchange Assn (IDEA), celebrates 120 years of service to the industry.  ILSCO recently reached IDEA’s Platinum Band, the most prestigious status of IDEA’s Bands of Excellence Program which recognizes manufacturers for providing exceptional marketing support to trading partners. IDEA is the official technology service provider of the electrical industry, owned by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) and the National Association of Electrical Distributors (NAED).

IDEA indicates that “The Bands of Excellence rating system measures each manufacturer’s completion percentage for providing robust product marketing content to distributors through the Industry Data Warehouse (IDW).  Specification documents, attributes, images, and descriptions must all be populated in the IDW for 100% of a manufacturer’s stock products to achieve the Platinum level status. Once this marketing information is populated in the IDW, distributors can download the information and share it with their customers using web storefronts, print catalogs and other media.”
