Innovative users of information technology

CMP's Information Week Magazine names Danzas AEI one of the 500 most innovative users of information technology

DARIEN, CT USA (September 11, 2000) -- In its twelfth annual InformationWeek 500 issue, published this week, CMP's InformationWeek magazine named Danzas AEI as one of the nation's most innovative users of information technology.

Looked at as the IT industry's annual report card, the InformationWeek 500 ranking is the only one of its kind based on both the size and complexity of installed information technologies, as well as on the tangible business benefits created by technology.

"Danzas AEI takes pride in its ability to build and maintain leading-edge systems that deliver maximum functionality to its customers, said John L. Luludis, Danzas AEI vice president and chief information officer. "We are grateful that InformationWeek has recognized Danzas AEI as a leader both in technological innovation and business applications."

"Going forward, our strategy is to create a robust fulfillment platform that facilitates the international shipping, customs clearance and delivery of goods purchased on-line," Luludis continued. "To that end, we have teamed with several "commerce management" specialists to offer an end-to-end solution to the challenges faced by businesses as they extend their e-commerce models to the global marketplace."

The InformationWeek 500 measures the innovative ways in which companies utilize technology to gain a business advantage. InformationWeek editors sought to identify and reward organizations that demonstrate a pattern of technological and business innovation. The research is considered critical to companies seeking to benchmark themselves against their vertical industry peers. Premier research partners that aided InformationWeek editors in this project include Information Resource Group (IRG) based in Sterling Heights, MI and CIC Research of San Diego, CA. A full list of companies on the InformationWeek 500 list as well as in-depth analysis can be found at informationweek.com. The entire InformationWeek 500 research report containing unpublished findings can be purchased at informationweek.com/reports.

"The InformationWeek 500 is one of the most prestigious honors an IT organization can receive," said Stephanie Stahl, Editor of InformationWeek. "IT impacts all aspects of business today and these companies excel at using it to raise the bar in their industries."
