(January 29, 2001 – Boston) – Open Systems Advisors, Inc. (OSA) today announced the winners of the Eighth Annual Crossroads A-List Awards (http://www.crossroads-osa.com). The Awards identify the best newly proven products and services that meet today's critical business challenges in the enterprise. Award recipients win their place on the Crossroads A-List based on references from early adopters. Specifically the Awards:
- Jumpstart business-technology teams on a shorter – yet more effective – technology evaluation and implementation cycle.
- Tell customers when a new product or service has proven its immediate business utility in the extended enterprise.
- Provide a credible third-party assessment of complex systems that cannot be duplicated in a lab environment.
- Identify lesser-known products and services with proven track records in large and/or rapidly growing businesses and trading communities.
Crossroads A-List Award categories are based on the Crossroads Decisions study, which outlines the key business priorities for IT investment in the coming year. For 2001, the categories are:
- Group 1. Commerce and Community
- Group 2. Operations and Fulfillment
- Group 3. Business and Technology Infrastructure
The Crossroads 2001 A-List Awards signal technologies that have achieved business results for early adopters and are ready for consideration by mainstream users. Additional information including excerpts from the Crossroads 2001 A-List Awards Briefs can be found at www.crossroads-osa.com.
