GSPR 2012 is an annual study by Zinnov, a leading Globalization and Market Expansion Advisory firm, which delivers a comprehensive analysis of the service provider landscape in the Electronic Research & Development and Professional Engineering Services (ER&D/PES) space.

EPAM was named as one of the three best companies in the Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Enterprise Software and Consumer Software categories, confirming its capability of implementing a go-to-market concept for software products, introducing strategic innovations for its customers, and working with the world’s largest ISVs.

Arkadiy Dobkin, EPAM’s CEO and President:
“We appreciate that Zinnov’s GSPR 2012 recognizes EPAM’s excellence in delivering services for the major industry verticals, such as ISV and Consumer Software. The leadership in the ISV sector demonstrates that EPAM is one of the most qualified solution partners that can undertake the most challenging projects.

Almost twenty years ago EPAM started as a software product development specialist for the ISV industry and has made significant progress since then. We continue to invest in what is one-third of the total ER&D/PES market, but we are also able to leverage that expertise in building mission-critical enterprise applications for clients in the Banking and Finance, Travel, Retail, and Media markets. Clients in these and other industries now benefit from EPAM’s ability to build complex software for the most demanding customers.”

The high position in the overall rating demonstrates that EPAM has a well-established competency in vertical markets, an ability to deliver a broad range of services, and a deep expertise and high scalability in providing services. EPAM Systems is the only company with software development centers in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) that has made it to the top 10 of Global R&D Service Providers Rating 2012.
