Procter & Gamble and its Global Business Services (GBS) organization were presented with a Gold Stevie Award in the Most Innovative Company – Over 2,500 Employees category in The 11th Annual American Business Awards in Chicago on Monday, June 17.

More than 3,200 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year, for consideration in a wide range of categories. The P&G nomination for this year’s Awards Competition showcased the critical work within the GBS organization to drive, enable and deliver the Company’s Going Digital strategy.

The featured case study for the application was the AMP IT UP program in GBS, which was an ambitious but highly-successful plan to elevate the digital capability and tools for 60,000 P&G employees in six weeks, delivered through more than 200 on-site events. This program allowed GBS to positively-impact one of the Company’s key strategic focus areas: Productivity.

P&G also earned recognition three other times this year. The company was recently named #9 on Havas Media’s second annual Meaningful Brands Index, a global survey that measures how people around the world feel about a range of brands.

Plus – P&G has earned recognition as The Best Procurement Team for 2013, at the Procurement Leaders awards event. The annual event recognizes the top performing purchasing organizations in a number of areas, as well as individuals and categories of performance. P&G competed against 18 other companies for the recognition.

P&G’s packaging was not overlooked – here’s what its team won at the 25th anniversary of the DuPont Awards for Packaging Innovation.
