Awards honor final group of 2014 winners from auto, chemical,
energy and marine industries for achieving success through use of
information, analytics and expertise
IHS Inc. (NYSE: IHS), a leading global source of critical
information and insight, today announced that four companies have
been selected to receive the final set of 2014 IHS SPECTRUM
Excellence Awards. This prestigious industry award program
spotlights organizations and individuals around the world who make
critical decisions and achieve their business goals through
innovative use of information, analytics and expertise. The new
group of award winners represents four major market sectors
including the automotive, chemical, oil and gas, and marine
industries.
“Each day, we see enterprises around the world making choices
that change lives in ways both big and small – from ground-level
tactics to high-level strategy – by leveraging best-in-class
economic, operational and technical expertise,” said Scott Key,
president and chief executive officer of IHS. “We are delighted to
recognize our award winners’ successes and we look forward to
continuing our support of their work in the future.”
Established in 2006, this popular industry award program was
expanded in 2014 to honor achievements across not only a broader
assortment of markets but also a growing number of professional
disciplines and geographic regions.
The latest and final round of 2014 IHS SPECTRUM Excellence Award
winners includes:
Alberta’s Industrial Heartland Association (AIHA) –
Dedicated to promoting sustainable development of Canada’s largest
hydrocarbon processing region, this leading association gained
objective, independent expertise/credibility for investor research
that identified Alberta's four most competitive chemical products
and brought eleven companies to Alberta for tours and
discussions.
Anadarko – One of the world's largest independent energy
exploration/production companies responded to a request from the
Government of Mozambique by sponsoring a third-party study of
requirements for developing trillions of cubic feet of natural gas
as well as the value of related mega-projects for the local economy
and people. The study was completed in only 30 days.
CityTwist – As a partner to hundreds of US auto dealers,
this email advertising firm enabled them to increase web traffic,
lower marketing costs per vehicle, sell more incremental vehicles
per email, and earn higher profits. In the process, this firm has
acquired new dealers to achieve 100 percent year-over-year growth
for three years and maintained strong client loyalty with 81
percent renewals.
Svitzer – This global leader gained a competitive edge
when it strengthened its safety culture to become the first tugboat
company to fully comply with Offshore Vessel Management and Self-
Assessment standards as well as decreasing lost-time incidents by
66 percent; reducing monthly average of total incidents by 80
percent; and training 1,700 employees on new safety protocols.
