For the first time in the decades-long history of Buyers Laboratory's (BLI) awards, a manufacturer has won the A3 MFP Line of the Year award for a fourth consecutive year. The most coveted honor bestowed by Buyers Lab, Line of the Year is awarded once a year to the vendors whose products are determined to be the best in their respective categories of models tested in BLI's two-month laboratory evaluation.

For 2014, as it has every year since 2011, that prestigious title goes to Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A. Inc.

"What Konica Minolta has achieved with a fourth consecutive Line of the Year win is unprecedented," said Daria Hoffman, managing editor, BLI. "The fact that, year-after-year, Konica Minolta continues to surpass the competition is a testament to the sustained quality of its A3 line."

For the past four years, Senior Vice President of Business Intelligence Services for Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A. (KMBS) Sam Errigo has spearheaded the company’s vertical market-based solutions initiative. At “Shape the Future,” he noted that the strategy has differentiated Konica Minolta from the competition: “The days of simply selling hardware are diminishing at a rapid pace, and customers’ expectations will continue to challenge the industry.
