Company Wins CIO 100 Award for New Banking
Platform
Discover Financial Services (NYSE: DFS) has been recognized by
IDG’s CIO magazine as a recipient of the 2015 CIO 100. The 28th
annual award program honors companies that develop innovative
information technology initiatives that drive measurable business
results.
Discover, a leader in the direct banking industry, earned a spot
on the list by implementing a cutting edge banking platform that
allows the company to better meet the needs of its customers while
providing the flexibility to quickly introduce new products and
services. The new platform provides Discover’s customer service
agents with a single cohesive view of the customer relationship and
real-time automation resulting in improved service and efficiency.
The flexibility of the new platform also provides the ability to
quickly innovate and more easily incorporate and adapt to
compliance requirements.
“We successfully merged leading edge software, innovative
architecture and customer-focused design principles to produce a
one-of-a-kind banking platform,” said Glenn Schneider, executive
vice president and CIO at Discover. “Discover is now poised to
continue providing our customers with excellent service while
helping them achieve a brighter financial future.”
Recipients of this year's CIO 100 Award were selected through a
three-step process. First, companies filled out an online
application detailing their innovative IT and business initiatives.
Next, a team of external judges (many of them former CIOs) reviewed
the applications in depth, looking for leading-edge IT practices
and measurable results. Finally, CIO editors reviewed the
judges' recommendations and selected the final 100.
"For 28 years now, the CIO 100 awards have honored the
innovative use of technology to deliver genuine business
value," said Maryfran Johnson, Editor in Chief
of CIO magazine & events. "Our 2015 winners are
an outstanding example of the transformative power of IT to
drive everything from revenue growth to competitive advantage."
