NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 01/17/13 -- Infor, a leading provider of business application software serving more than 70,000 customers, today announced that nominations are now open for the 2013 Infor Excellence in Action Awards. The awards recognize Infor customers whose strategic initiatives have successfully driven innovation and profitability to positively impact their organization's overall business performance. Winners will be announced at Infor's annual user conference, Inforum 2013, this April in Orlando, Fla.

"The Excellence in Action Awards provide an opportunity for Infor to recognize customers for new and creative product use in front of thousands of industry leaders and peers at Inforum," said Duncan Angove, president of products and support, Infor. "The theme of this year's conference is Faster Together because it's focused on demonstrating how Infor solutions are changing the way our customers work by accelerating the way they do business. Infor's industry-specific products combined with the ingenuity of our users create a new level of speed and efficiency, which is embodied by the winners of these awards."

Customers will be selected for one of five categories: financial excellence, employee excellence, operational excellence, customer excellence, and innovations. In addition, Infor will recognize the organization that best exemplifies innovation across all categories as its 2013 Customer of the Year.

A panel of Infor solution and industry experts will evaluate nominations based on the scope and depth of performance improvement, quantifiable business benefits, customer focus and satisfaction, and innovative use of the technology. The deadline for submissions is March 1, 2013, and customers must be on active maintenance for consideration. Winners will receive one complimentary registration for Inforum 2013, recognition on the Infor website and support portal, and an Infor Excellence in Action Award and graphic image to use in promotional materials.
