Many companies promise that their technology is the best knowledge management solution. One of the greatest challenges for organizations purchasing those technologies is to determine which company will deliver on the promise. This award is given to the organization that is delivering its promise to customers by providing innovative technology solutions for implementing and integrating knowledge management practices into their business processes. The award-winning organization demonstrates how it goes beyond simply delivering technology to working with clients to ensure that both the technology and knowledge processes are embedded in the work processes. In other words, it helps organizations realize positive business results.
