ARLINGTON, Va., Nov. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Acquisition Solutions, Inc. announced today that it was named among North America's "Most Admired Knowledge Enterprises" (MAKE) by a panel of Fortune 500 senior executives and nationally recognized experts in knowledge management (KM) and intellectual capital. Rising three spots from its place in 2008, Acquisition Solutions ranked 13th among a field of honorees dominated by America's top corporations, including Apple, Google, IBM and Microsoft.

According to Rory Chase, Teleos managing director overseeing the MAKE research, "These organizations have been recognized as North American leaders in effectively transforming enterprise knowledge into wealth-creating ideas, products and solutions. They are building portfolios of intellectual capital and intangible assets which will enable them to out-perform their competitors in the future."

Acquisition Solutions embeds KM in every business practice to add value in the daily support of public-sector clients. "As a company working exclusively with the public sector to help solve complex problems, knowledge management is essential to our business," said Anne Reed, president and chief executive officer of Acquisition Solutions. "Our focus on delivering Knowledge at the Point of Execution(TM) enables our employees to quickly deliver high quality results to clients and better manage internal processes." Reed added, "Our investment in being knowledge-enabled at Acquisition Solutions further differentiates us from the competition. We're proud to be recognized among Fortune 500 leaders like Apple, IBM, Google and Microsoft."

MAKE candidates were judged on their business enterprises' ability to be knowledge-driven in corporate culture; transfer to customers; senior leadership; products and solutions; maximizing intellectual capital, collaboration and learning; and shareholder value. The winning organizations are also recognized for using KM tools as a visible driver of superior financial performance and return on revenue. A full report on the year's award recipients will be published in December by The KNOW Network. The North American MAKE study is part of the Teleos' MAKE research program. Since 1998, the Teleos' MAKE research program has sought to identify organizations with outstanding performance and growth in intellectual capital. The awards are sponsored by The KNOW Network, an international network dedicated to helping organizations identify, adopt, manage and improve best practices in KM.
