Respondents to the survey included firms from 15 countries around the world, representing the most popular service-delivery destinations. The winners were selected in 10 categories based upon the strengths of the information provided and the feedback returned by the customers and industry analysts.

In the Global Services Magazine’s cover story “Meet the 2006 Global Services 100”

Each of these areas is essential for a world-class service provider, but what distinguishes Global Services 100 companies is their ability to effectively integrate and combine these capabilities to create value for their clients and stakeholders”.

Arkadiy Dobkin, EPAM CEO, said: “During the last several years the visibility of Eastern Europe increased significantly on the global outsourcing map. We are glad to see that EPAM’s ability to differentiate itself by delivering to our clients a consistent level of excellence in software engineering was recognized by ranking us as the overall No. 1 company in this region, and also as one of the top 10 worldwide leaders in the specific category of application development. Achieving both rankings for the second year in the row is a testament to the mature underlying processes, strong culture and clear focus EPAM is demonstrating over the years while experiencing significant growth and increasing competitiveness. We are very proud that we achieved scalability and maintained our clients’ expectations of value and quality”.
