Telecom Leader EMBARQ is Most Innovative in the Americas SAN JOSE,
Calif., March 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BEA Systems, Inc.
(NASDAQ:BEAS), a world leader in enterprise infrastructure
software, today announced the winners of the company's
international Most Innovative Customer awards, choosing three
winners out of more than 50 nominees from across five continents.
In the Americas region, the winner was Embarq Corporation
(NYSE:EQ), a provider of a complete suite of integrated
communications services including voice, data, high-speed Internet
and wireless in 18 states and a member of the S&P 500. In the
region covering Africa, Europe and the Middle East, the winner was
Screwfix, one of the largest retailers of home-improvement products
in the United Kingdom. The winner in the Asia Pacific region was
China Construction Bank, a major commercial bank headquartered in
China with offices in Frankfurt, Hong Kong, Johannesburg, London,
New York, Singapore, Seoul and Tokyo. "It was extremely difficult
to choose just three winners from a number of great nominees that
are doing creative, game-changing work with our technology," said
Rob Levy, executive vice president and Chief Technology Officer at
BEA. "We selected EMBARQ as the winner in the Americas region
because their work best embodied the criteria of these awards --
they are using BEA products to transform their organization and the
customer experience. Since its launch as a new company, EMBARQ has
always looked for innovative ways to delight its customers in the
face of growing competition." When EMBARQ began working with BEA in
2006, it had just become an independent company. It was in the
unique position of being a startup with an existing infrastructure.
"We were faced with challenges in developing an external website
that used our existing investment while at the same time made it
easy for our customers to conduct e-commerce such as ordering new
products and services online," said Vallerie Parrish-Porter, chief
information officer at EMBARQ. "At the same time, we needed an
internal website that improved our business processes and allowed
our employees across 18 states to work collaboratively to improve
our customers' experiences. We not only met the challenge, but
because the BEA software is easily upgradable, we laid the
foundation for future improvements to meet the growing needs of our
customers." Screwfix is a multi-channel retailer that has sold
products through its call center, website and catalogs for years.
It recently extended its brand into nearly 100 brick-and-mortar
stores. BEA technology has been a key enabler of this strategic
expansion. Screwfix has modeled and built essential business
processes on its BEA platform, and is utilizing BEA to address
fundamental issues associated with entering a new sales channel,
such as inventory and supply chain management, order processing,
and much more. China Construction Bank was named the "most
profitable bank in Asia" by Asiaweek magazine in 2006. Much of its
success can be traced to the state-of-the-art financial
infrastructure it has built on a BEA foundation. The bank is
frequently cited as operating one of the most innovative banking
systems in the industry. BEA technology also provided the
underpinning for one of the largest business integration projects
anywhere in the world, spanning hundreds of applications and
supporting 13,629 branch offices. About EMBARQ Embarq Corporation
