The accomplishment is notable also for the minimization of incidents and customer complaints during the year.

Mycom OSI took the prestigious CTIO Mover of the Year for its collaboration with Globe in delivering the first fully cloud native network assurance platform in South East Asia. The highly available and scalable platform has opened the door to agile deployment of automation solutions by combining data sources such as alarms, performance key performance indicators, tickets and probe data. This provides a holistic view of Globe’s network services end-to-end and helps move the company to a predictive mode of operations. The award was handed by Globe’s Chief Technology and Information Officer, Gil Genio.


“Globe relies on our partnerships to accomplish our company goals of harnessing technology to bring powerful innovations to our customers that help them create wonderful moments for themselves and the people around them,” said Carlo Malana, Globe Chief Information Officer, at the awards ceremony held recently at The Globe Tower in BGC.

DB Results was awarded as the Digital Enterprise Partner of the Year for its work in delivering digitally-enabled products and in supporting clients to digitize their business operations. Last year, it developed the innovative EVA human resource app that rapidly automated many HR processes in Globe, from filing of leaves and applying for loans to monitoring time entries and enrollment for benefits. The App went live to over 8,000 Globe employees throughout the country in early 2019 and has been received favorably.

Tata Consultancy Services, on the other hand, took the Business-Aligned Delivery Partner of the Year Award for helping shape Globe’s S/4 HANA transformation roadmap, playing a vital role in standardizing, simplifying, integrating, automating, and optimizing Globe’s six critical business processes - inventory management, order to cash, record to report, treasury, management reporting, budget control, monitoring and reporting.
