It’s always a pleasure being nominated, but winning is even more fun, isn’t it? I’m happy to say that today Perficient was named the sole recipient of IBM’s 2011 Information Management Solution Excellence Award. We were also the sole recipient of IBM’s 2011 Business Analytics Solution Provider Achievement Award. That’s two times the fun!
The Information Management award is, in large part, to recognize efforts related to our partnership with Premier healthcare alliance, a healthcare performance improvement alliance serving more than 2,500 hospitals and 77,000 additional healthcare sites, which resulted in an Integrated Performance Platform Solution. This solution leverages several IBM technologies to support the analytical needs for healthcare providers that require a robust data model and analytical applications. It delivers critical information and key performance indicators for patient safety, quality outcomes, core measure reporting, service line management, physician alignment, surgical analytics and integrated care for the development and inaugural deployment of this innovative solution.
“Together with Perficient and IBM, we’re building a transformative new infrastructure based on data that is unified, easily-accessed and from providers, payors and patients,” said Denise Hatzidakis, Premier’s Chief Technology Officer. “This new data model provides clinical decision-support at the point of care delivery, helping providers make faster, better decisions to reduce preventable harm and waste.”

At previous IOD events, Perficient has been honored with awards including Warehouse Pack Partner of the Year, Information Agenda Partner of the Year, Best of Show 2010 for Retail Analytics and multiple Cognos Partner of the Year awards.
