TECHNOLOGY MANAGERS FORUM AND EWEEK HONOR BEST PRACTICES IN IT MANAGEMENT AND MAYOR RUDOLPH GIULIANI
October 17, 2001 : (New York, October 17th, 2001) Technology Managers Forum, a professional association for high-ranking information technology managers headquartered in New York City, announced today the winners of its sixth annual Best Practice Awards, co-sponsored by the national industry technology publication eWEEK.
As a surprise winner in the traditionally technology-focused awards program, New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani will receive a Leadership Award for Disaster Recovery Management. According to executive director, Priscilla Tate: "Superior disaster recovery management recognizes the importance of not just nuts-and-bolts issues-but also the value of positive, forward-looking leadership. Mayor Giuliani exemplifies this management ideal through his executive vision and resolve to re-open Wall Street.''
The term Best Practices refers to processes proved to be the most effective means of accomplishing a task or application, and are significant in that IT managers can replicate them and apply them to their own businesses. The Best Practice Awards program is distinguished by the caliber of its judging panel, which features practicing IT professionals from Fortune 1000 companies.
Other Best Practice Award winners include Prudential Xpress for Business to Business E-Commerce Applications; Ryder in conjunction with eCredit in the category of Business Process Improvement; The Corcoran Group for Business to Consumer E-Commerce Applications; the Computer Services Division of the Census Bureau for Enterprise Management; Prudential Corporate Technology Services for Help Desk; NTT America with Camelot for Information Security; and the State of California along with Verity in the Technology Innovation category. Honorable mentions were awarded in the categories Help Desk for Hewitt Associates, Business to Consumer E-Commerce Applications for Barnes and Noble University and Technology Innovation for Honeywell. The winners were chosen from over 150 nominations submitted from the United States and Canada. As Technology Managers Forum's Best Practice Awards (www.techforum.com) program enters its sixth year, it continues its pioneering contribution toward establishing a code of best practice for IT management.
