SEATTLE, March 10, 2003 - AskMe Corporation, the leader in enterprise software and services for deploying employee knowledge networks (EKNs), announced today that KMWorld Magazine named AskMe as a leading enterprise software provider in the knowledge management (KM) category.
According to KMWorld Executive Hugh McKellar, "AskMe delivers an innovative and proven knowledge management solution." McKellar continued, "It enables large Global2000 companies such as Honeywell, Gerber and Boeing to leverage the expertise and knowledge of their employees to drive organizational performance. AskMe is clearly one of the companies driving the knowledge economy." Marking the second consecutive year that AskMe has been recognized by KMWorld, this year's awards honor companies that are emerging as the market makers in the rapidly expanding KM space, and deliver solutions that best exemplify the velocity and impact of innovation. AskMe was recognized among a strong list of technology leaders that included Hewlett-Packard, IBM and Siebel Systems. AskMe Corporation leads the industry as the first company to deliver a 3rd generation, feature rich EKN system that has been proven in large-scale enterprise deployments. Unlike traditional knowledge management technologies that solely aim to improve access to documents, EKNs locate both documented knowledge and undocumented knowledge and expertise across large organizations that are divided by geographic, functional and divisional boundaries. AskMe Enterprise then facilitates collaboration between employees and captures all exchanges, helping the workforce to make faster and more informed decisions, avoid redundancy and reduce project cycle times. As a result, EKNs successfully help large organizations reduce the "knowledge erosion" that occurs when employees retire, the company restructures, or when internal teams split and transition to new tasks after completing a project. AskMe has been consistently recognized by industry leaders and influencers that include analysts, IT executives, media and peers for its marketplace success, solid financial position and industry leading knowledge-sharing software. Other accolades the company has recently received include: KMWorld's '100 Companies that Matter in Knowledge Management' can be found in the March 2003 issue of KMWorld Magazine.
