ETMA Members Recognize AMI Strategies and Social Mobile for Innovations in Two Distinct Areas: the Application of Artificial Intelligence to Invoices and Purpose-built Certified Android Devices for Enterprises

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, CA, October 14, 2019 /Neptune100/ — Social Mobile and AMI Strategies are recognized by the Enterprise Technology Management Association (ETMA) for the Innovation of the Year Award. This award recognizes each firm for their innovations. AMI Strategies was recognized for its application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to invoices. Social Mobile won for its partnership with Google to provide fully certified, Android Enterprise recommended ready devices tailored to enterprise needs.

ETMA seeks to raise industry standards, recognize its members’ achievements and promote the value of solutions through the Innovation of the Year Award. The award was voted on by ETMA members at its September conference in Atlanta. The selection criteria included four factors: the degree of innovation; market response from clients, delivery of the offering, and how the value proposition is being fulfilled and validated in the marketplace.

Robert Morcos, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Social Mobile said, “We are honored to have won the 2019 ETMA Innovation Award for our work within the Android Enterprise ecosystem. Our Rhino portfolio of products provides a cost-efficient solution for businesses looking to deploy robust, purpose-built devices that align to Android Enterprise requirements. The fact that our industry peers selected us for the award over other great innovations this year shows that not only is the industry beginning to understand the value of Android in enterprise, but how quickly the global adoption of Android Enterprise is happening. We plan to continue bringing Google Certified products to market that provide an immediate solution for global companies looking for an enterprise grade solution operating on Android across a range of form factors through 2020 and beyond.”

Dean Keeler, CTO for AMI Strategies, said “We started down the artificial intelligence path with our InvoiceAI application for three reasons. First, we sought to insure data accuracy and standardization into our temNOW system. Second, we wanted to alleviate our software team’s efforts to develop and manage translators for over 700 different types of invoices that we currently manage. Third, we saw opportunities to eliminate the need for data entry and upgrade the team’s skill set so they could become teachers and managers of the invoice templates within the AI engine.”

Joe Basili, Managing Director for ETMA, said, “This award shines a spotlight on Social Mobile and AMI Strategies. Competitors are the toughest critics, but they are also best positioned to determine which organizations truly exemplify the Innovation of the Year Award criteria.”

ETMA seeks to influence and educate enterprises of the value proposition that our members offer and to reduce the time it takes to close deals, and avoid “no decision” situations. ETMA’s core values include, sharing and networking; engagement, participation, idea exchange and peer learning; taking a neutral stance with regard to competitors; promoting ethical behavior; openness and adaptability.
