Satyam Computer Services Ltd, India's leading global consulting and information technology services provider, has earned top honors at the prestigious `Most Admired Knowledge Enterprise (MAKE) Award – 2008', for the fourth consecutive year, for excellence in knowledge management.

Satyam is the first company to win the award four years in a row.

Satyam was honored at the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) Knowledge Summit on 5 November in Mumbai, where the best Indian knowledge management organisations are recognised. The award is  based on an annual study, in which 16 organisations participated, conducted by the `Know Network.' It took top honors for its `organisational learning,' which included its ability to: create a learning organisation, deliver value based on customer knowledge; transform enterprise knowledge into shareholder value.

"We are honored to receive such a high-profile award in organisational learning, a discipline that means a great deal to our organisation,'' said Vijay Prasad, Satyam's chief information officer. ''From its inception, Satyam has consistently innovated and advanced KM practices. Now that we are a global, networked organisation, we strive to make KM extend beyond the company boundaries to include the entire ecosystem of partners and clients.''

Satyam focuses on continuous improvement and professional development for all of its associates, as evidenced by the world-renowned Satyam School of Leadership and Satyam Learning Center. Both entities train employees to share knowledge with their partners, suppliers, customers-even their customers' customers-to optimise opportunities for breakthrough results. This approach has led to numerous innovations.

"Effective Knowledge Management is a catalyst for economic growth,'' said KV Kamath, CII president and managing director and chief executive of  ICICI Bank. ''The more knowledge is allowed to flow, the more it grows. Sixty per cent of India's GDP is generated by the service industry, and for those professionals, knowledge is key," he added.

Satyam, a leading global business and information technology services company, delivers consulting, systems integration, and outsourcing solutions to clients in 20 industries and more than 65 countries.
