WESTBOROUGH, MA – Wakefly, leading web development and online marketing firm, was honored at the 2014 Interactive Media Awards; receiving the IMA Outstanding Achievement Award in the Energy category for the redesign of the Smiths Power website.

The judging consisted of various criteria, including design, usability, innovation in technical features, standards compliance and content.
