New Delhi (PTI): Political parties may appear to be a long way off from corporate excellence. But BJP's attempt to marry the two seems to have paid off as it its IT wing has won the CIO 100 enterprise excellence award for this year.
"Practical innovation has always been the priority area of the party. This award vindicates BJP's policy of keeping pace with technology for the benefit of party workers and also for the greater interest of the society we serve," party spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy said..
The Information Technology cell of the party has been selected as one among the top 100 organisations in the country by the international CIO (Chief Information Officer) magazine, the world's leading journal of IT decision makers, for its "ultimate mark of enterprise excellence."
The other organisations in the country to share the honour with BJP are Mahindra and Mahindra, HCL, L&T, KPMG, Cognizant and Wipro.
"BJP as an organisation was always ahead of its competitors in the use of IT. In 1996, it became the first political party in India to have its own website. The party's automation journey has now been institutionalised by party leadership," party's IT cell chief Pradyut Bora said.
The party offices today are connected with the Unified Communication System(UC). The system allows a sender to send a piece of communication in the desired format (email,fax, SMS, voice) and the same choice rests with the receiver too, he added.
