Dynamic Integrated Services (DIS) is proud to announce that we have been recognized with three 2026 Hermes Creative Awards, including one Platinum and two Gold honors. These awards highlight our commitment to delivering high-impact, creative solutions that help federal government clients communicate effectively, engage their audiences, and drive meaningful outcomes.
The Hermes Creative Awards are among the most respected international competitions for creative professionals, recognizing excellence in strategic communications, marketing, and design. This year’s recognition underscores DIS’s ability to pair innovation with mission-focused execution across complex federal initiatives.
Platinum Award: “Plan Today, Honor Forever”
DIS earned a Platinum Award in Strategic & Integrated Campaigns for our work supporting the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) National Cemetery Administration (NCA) on the national communications initiative, “Plan Today, Honor Forever.”
In partnership with VA, DIS developed and led a coordinated, nationwide effort to expand awareness of VA burial and memorial benefits among Veterans, their families, and end-of-life industry professionals. The campaign integrated digital advertising flights, targeted outreach, industry toolkits, and VA-owned channels—including NCA’s GovDelivery email program—into a unified communications strategy.
By maintaining a cohesive look, feel, and message across all platforms, the initiative built sustained awareness and encouraged proactive planning among a geographically dispersed audience. This work exemplifies DIS’s ability to design and execute large-scale campaigns that are both strategic and deeply human-centered.
Gold Award: MVP Matters 2025 Annual Edition
DIS also received a Gold Award in Publications & Informational Materials for the creation of the Million Veteran Program (MVP) Matters 2025 Annual Edition newsletter.
This flagship publication brings together a year of MVP research, Veteran stories, and program milestones into a compelling and accessible format. The 2025 edition featured updates on the Military Experiences and Toxic Exposures Survey, answers to frequently asked questions, and messages from MVP leadership on translating research into real-world impact.
Our creative approach emphasized clarity, trust, and approachability—reflecting MVP’s brand personality while ensuring complex scientific information remained engaging and easy to understand. The result is a publication that not only informs but also strengthens the connection between Veterans and one of VA’s most impactful research programs.
Gold Award: Evolution of Claims Processing Video Series
In the category of Video Production, DIS earned a second Gold Award for developing the Evolution of Claims Processing (ECP) Video Series for VA.
This nine-part series was designed to transform how complex operational changes are communicated to internal audiences. Using dynamic animation, relatable storytelling, and a memorable mascot, the videos translate technical advancements in claims automation into clear, actionable insights for Claims Processors and leadership.
The result is a scalable and repeatable communication model that elevates traditional training into an engaging learning experience—earning overwhelmingly positive feedback from stakeholders.
Driving Impact Through Creativity
These awards reflect more than creative excellence—they demonstrate DIS’s ability to deliver solutions that advance mission outcomes for our federal partners. From national campaigns to internal training and research communications, our work is grounded in strategy, innovation, and a deep understanding of the audiences we serve.
We are honored to support the Department of Veterans Affairs and proud of the DIS team whose talent and dedication made these achievements possible.
