It is a fight the agency has never won.

The agency lost the account six years ago and won it back in March.

It is the first time a federal agency has won the award back-to-back.

The agency won seven gold awards and the best of show trophy.

It was the third consecutive year that an American agency won the award.

In one case this year, the agency won a $70 million settlement from an insurance company.

The agency won a $317,000 city contract in March 1996 to conduct the evaluation.

The agency has won a reputation for being up and coming.

American agencies won 17 - 4 gold, 8 silver and 5 bronze.

That in turn will help the agency win voluntary compliance, he says.
