The awards recognize vendor excellence, innovation and leadership for technology products and services used by federal government agencies. Award winners are determined by attending Federal System Integrators.
"The more than 70 System Integrators in attendance review many products and services.

"Now more than ever, the U.S. federal government agencies are challenged with their ability to manage and exploit unstructured information.
