QuidelOrtho Receives Excellence Services Label in EMEA and Two Stevie® Awards

QuidelOrtho also won a Gold Stevie Award in the Customer Service Success category and a Bronze Stevie Award in the AI & Tech Focused Digital Transformation Team of the Year category in the 20th annual Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service.

These awards underscore the customer experience at QuidelOrtho, which is designed to be predictive, connected, intelligent and grounded in the QuidelOrthoCQ™ Philosophy of turning intelligence and ease into care customers can feel.

"These 2026 recognitions are a testament to the passion and discipline of our teams across the globe," said Karen Taylor, Senior Vice President, Customer Experience, QuidelOrtho. "Achieving the Excellence Services Label reflects not only our commitment to customer-centricity, but also the strength of our quality management system, processes, training and culture of continuous improvement. Earning both the Gold and Bronze Stevie Awards further reflects the strength of our customer‑first approach and our ability to harness innovation, technology and teamwork to deliver meaningful improvements in service."

ISO 23592, first published in 2021, provides organizations with guidance to build customer-centric systems that go beyond basic expectations to deliver memorable, high-quality experiences across every touchpoint. While ISO 23592 is not yet a certifiable standard, the Excellence Services Label affirms that the organization has been evaluated in accordance with ISO 23592 requirements and has demonstrated maturity, innovation and consistent customer focus. The certification scope spans Customer Service, the Technical Solutions Center, Technical Training, and Field Service, supporting a unified service model designed to deliver consistent value throughout the customer journey.

The Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service are the world's top honors for customer service, contact center, business development and sales professionals. The Stevie Awards organize nine of the world's leading business awards programs, including the prestigious American Business Awards^® and International Business Awards^®.
