NSCA, the not-for-profit association representing the commercial integration industry, announced the winners of its 11th annual Excellence in Product Innovation (EPI) Awards, a recognition program for manufacturers and products that have a profound impact on integrators.
Per the organization, any manufacturer that produces low-voltage products for installation by integrators in the commercial space is eligible to apply for this award. The 2025 EPI Awards winners were announced on Feb. 25, 2025, at NSCA’s 27th annual Business & Leadership Conference in Irving, Texas.

According to NSCA, beyond the impact on commercial integrators, the judging process included additional considerations in regard to how the products impact user experience (i.e. scalability, versatility, deployment cost, ease of use, ROI, ADA compliance, energy efficiency, etc.) The judging panel included NSCA’s director of business resources, the editor of Commercial Integrator and a panel of integrators from across North America.
“Every year, manufacturers impress us with their creativity and technological advances,” says Mike Abernathy, NSCA director of business resources. “Our judging panel rigorously assesses every nomination, and the challenge of choosing winners gets tougher annually. Nearly every submission reflects the progressive strides that are happening within our industry, as manufacturers continue to help elevate integrators as vital contributors to mission-critical technology.”
