FOR THE SECOND CONSECUTIVE YEAR, EPAM WAS RECOGNIZED FOR ITS AI-ENABLED PLATFORM THAT SUPPORTS THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATIONS OF ADAPTIVE ENTERPRISES

NEWTOWN, Pennsylvania, Jan. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- EPAM Systems, Inc. (NYSE: EPAM), a leading global provider of digital platform engineering and software development services, today announced that, for the second consecutive year, its TelescopeAI platform has been named a winner in the 2020 BIG Innovation Awards presented by the Business Intelligence Group. Designed to help adaptive enterprises proactively respond to rapidly-changing market trends, the TelescopeAI platform provides an AI-enabled intelligence layer for any existing system of record to effectively manage an organization's people, the projects they work on and their overall productivity.

In 2019, EPAM expanded its TelescopeAI platform to offer solutions for several vertical and business process use cases – from specialized safety and compliance features for oil and gas to workforce management for healthcare and clinical trials support for life sciences. By expanding the TelescopeAI platform's core IT operations use case, EPAM is now able to offer a more complete solution for adaptive enterprise needs. 

"Our customers realize that to win in today's competitive environment, their business must operate as adaptive enterprises—moving beyond siloed technology implementations—with complete visibility into their operations. By combining the TelescopeAI platform with EPAM's integrated business, experience and technology consulting services, our customers have actionable insights to make informed decisions to increase productivity and delivery as well as the organizational resources needed to drive topline growth," said Jitin Agarwal, VP, Enterprise Products, EPAM. "This recognition by the Business Intelligence Group, in addition to several other awards we have received, confirms that the TelescopeAI platform is the innovative solution for next-gen adaptive enterprises."

A recent Forrester Innovation Survey shows that advanced adaptive companies have 320% greater revenue growth compared to industry averages. Having the ability to continually adapt and pivot in response to rapidly changing customer, competitive and technology trends enables organizations to stay relevant, differentiate themselves and pursue disruptive innovation. With the TelescopeAI platform's customizable, plug-and-play solution, enterprises gain the flexibility and insights needed to effectively manage teams, ensure successful client delivery, anticipate potential risks and meet business-critical digital transformation objectives.

"Innovation has become a major theme for organizations across virtually all industries and this year's winners are a testament to the creativity, passion and perseverance of individuals worldwide," said Maria Jimenez, Chief Operating Officer of the Business Intelligence Group. "We are thrilled to be honoring EPAM as they are leading by example and making real progress on improving the workplace experience of so many employees."
