飞思卡尔半导体荣登CIO杂志CIO百强企业排行榜

AUSTIN, Texas – June 12, 2008 – IDG's CIO magazine has selected Freescale Semiconductor as a recipient of the 2008 CIO 100. The 21st annual award program recognizes organizations around the world that exemplify the highest level of operational and strategic excellence in information technology (IT).

"The CIO 100 honors organizations that have used technology in innovative ways to generate value to the business," said Abbie Lundberg, editor in chief of CIO magazine. "Unlike other top lists, it's not just about who's biggest—it's about who's doing the most interesting and relevant things."

“Freescale appreciates the leading role that IT can play in business transformation,” said Sam Coursen, vice president and CIO of Freescale. “This award recognizes one of the key projects we implemented to drive better decision making – the creation of a world-class enterprise business intelligence program. The IT, manufacturing and business teams have combined factory, business and engineering data in one data warehouse enabling cross domain analytics and unprecedented real time data analysis.”

The 2008 CIO 100 awards will be presented at the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, Colo., on Aug. 26 at the conclusion of the 10th annual CIO 100 Symposium® and Awards Ceremony.

About the CIO 100
The recipients of this year's CIO 100 award were selected through a three-step process. First, companies filled out an online application form detailing their innovative practices in both business and IT. Next, a team of judges reviewed the applications in depth, looking for unique practices and substantial results. Finally, CIO editors reviewed the judges' recommendations and voted on the final 100. Once the top 100 honorees were selected, several honorees were chosen to receive an additional special award.

Complete coverage of the 2008 CIO 100 awards will be in the Aug. 15 issue of CIO magazine and available online at www.cio.com on June 1.
