Emerson products and services dominate CONTROL Magazine Readers' Choice Awards
for 13th year
AUSTIN, TEXAS (April 6, 2006) - Emerson Process Management, an Emerson business
(NYSE: EMR), has been voted
the best supplier of process management technologies in CONTROL magazine's
14th Annual Readers' Choice Awards.
Emerson products and services have dominated the awards for 13 years by consistently
winning the most categories, including the coveted "best process control/automation
system" award for five consecutive years.
CONTROL readers repeatedly named intelligent products and software from Emerson,
with the company receiving 29 first-place awards, more than three times the
number of the nearest competitor. The products and software power Emerson's

operations for optimum process control, operational excellence, and management
information.

for "good-to-excellent" service and support, Emerson divisions and
related companies were lauded for delivering the best in quality customer service
in 18 categories, three times more than the nearest competitor.
"Being named by process control professionals in such overwhelming numbers
in an unaided survey is a gratifying affirmation of our open, standards-based
technologies, and our commitment to customer service," said John Berra,
president of Emerson Process Management. "Our goal is to give our users
an edge through combined technology and services, and the annual Reader's Choice
results are an important scorecard of progress. This encourages us to make even
more investments to help our users achieve better business results."
