Outstanding Performers Honored at SARA Events

Florida’s Mark Monaghan and Texas’ Floyd Hamilton were named United Space Alliance Employees of the Year at the 11th Annual Superior Achievement and Recognition Award (SARA) ceremonies held March 24 in Florida and March 26 in Texas.

SARAs were also given at each location for outstanding accomplishments during the year in the categories of Safety, Quality, Leadership, Administrative Excellence, Technical Achievement, Teamwork and Community Service.

Both events featured a special video presentation with USA President and Chief Executive Officer Dick Covey that recognized USA as the only team that can support NASA in “the tremendous challenge” to safely fly out the Space Shuttle Program, complete the assembly of the International Space Station and extend the life of the Hubble Space Telescope.

“No one else in the world can meet this challenge. Only us,” Covey said. “Our customer and our nation are counting on us to do it. Together with NASA, we will finish this mission.

“The rewards of our work will be shared by generations to come.”

This year’s Florida ceremony was held at the Radisson Resort at the Port Canaveral Conference Center, while the Texas event was held at the Galveston Island Convention Center.

Nominees for the SARAs are selected from the Quest for Excellence (QFE) Monthly Award winners chosen by either the Florida or Texas Site Awards Boards. The Employee of the Year Awards, selected from the SARA recipients by the Executive Awards Board, recognize top achievements that significantly contributed to the success of the space program.

Since its inception in April 1997, more than 5,100 USA employees in Alabama, Florida and Texas have been recognized with QFE Monthly Awards.
