For a number or years, Bennett Awards has created corporate recognition awards for the Ford Motor Credit Company, one of the largest automotive finance companies in the world. These awards are for Ford’s “Partners in Quality” recognition program. The Ford Partners in Quality Awards, established in 1993 by Ford Credit President Edsel B. Ford II, recognize dealers across the U.S. and Canada for outstanding achievement in customer satisfaction and support for Ford Credit. Approximately 100 out of 4,500 dealers are chosen each year for this prestigious corporate recognition award.

The awards Bennett Awards has produced for Ford’s Partners in Quality Awards have spanned a number of different sculpture designs and styles. The initial awards used by Ford were based on traditional bronze sculpture designs. Over the years, Ford has migrated to modern, contemporary designs based on a variety of materials. Most of these have employed a mix of colors and finishes, and Ford’s blue color has been in consistent component of many of these designs.

The sculpture design shown here was fabricated from aluminum, and feature both polished aluminum and blue anodized finishes on its surfaces.
