For this year’s edition, the team at Human Resources Online has spent the few past months compiling a list of HR solution providers that HR leaders have worked with and attested to. In the process, an esteemed jury of 23 senior regional heads of HR judged and scored the finalists’ profiles, based on a holistic judging criteria. These included facts on their performance, milestones, achievements, challenges, and solutions, to help the judges score each entry. After the rounds of judging, scores obtained from the judges led us to identifying gold, silver, and bronze winners across the categories, along with a list of finalists. This year, a total of 116 finalists
