Janes is proud to announce that Chief Technology Officer Phil Smith has been named a winner at the prestigious CIO 100 Awards for a third year in a row. The CIO Awards UK recognises the best technology leaders in the United Kingdom.
The Technology team at Janes has been instrumental in developing ground-breaking solutions and its commitment to excellence has been a cornerstone of Janes success. At the heart of the Janes digital transformation is the Solar programme, which delivers a single intelligence environment for open-source intelligence. This programme has been delivered by the Janes in-house Technology team, supported by third-party partners.
Another incredible product that has been recognised is an API-accessible knowledge graph, containing Janes assured foundational defence intelligence. Powered by Janes single intelligence platform, it interconnects entities such as orders of battle, equipment inventories, and defence equipment and has been developed to be able to integrate and interconnect with other data sources and unstructured text sources.
Phil Smith expressed appreciation for the recognition, saying, “I am honoured to receive the CIO 100 Award for the third consecutive year, which reflects the achievements of the Janes team. I would like to recognise the fantastic efforts of the Technology, Data, and Product teams within Janes who have spent the last three years building these capabilities that are transforming Janes. I would particularly like to thank the Technology management team that supports me daily in achieving our goals, both transformational and operational.”
