A panel of Infor industry and product experts evaluated each applicant's nomination based on their ability to demonstrate new processes and tactics that were deployed using Infor technology.
“We are proud to be the recipient of the 2016 Infor Excellence in Action Award,” said Todd Hawkins, senior vice president of maintenance for First Transit. “The Infor software is a tool that allows us to get buses and fleet cars back on the road faster for our agency partners.”
