Through its deployment of the Vivisimo Enterprise Search Platform, P&G users have reduced the time spent searching for documents and increased overall productivity. Additionally, P&G users have increased knowledge sharing by using search as a new means of collaborating. Through a single search interface, users now have the ability to locate experts within their organization to connect with and share knowledge.

"Today's award is another validation of our decision to choose Velocity to power our search needs," said Bud Miyahara, Section Manager, P&G. "With the aid of Velocity, we have improved the user satisfaction of our search offering and have been able to deliver key business search needs. Velocity has also given us the ability to deliver future search capability with little worry of technological limitations."

The award, which recognizes an organization in which knowledge management is a positive reality, was given to P&G during the KMWorld Reality ceremony at the Enterprise Search Summit in San Jose earlier today.

"We couldn't be more delighted that P&G is the recipient of this award. We strongly believe it's well deserved given their commitment and focus on delivering the highest quality knowledge management capabilities to their customers," said John Kealey, CEO of Vivisimo. "Like all our customers, P&G is realizing significant business benefits of our Velocity platform in term of improving information access and findability."
