Helping Run the Information Network of Arkansas
Program Has Its Perks
For the second year in a row, Arkansas Information Consortium,
LLC (AIC), the state's official provider of digital government
services, was named one of the Best Places to Work in Arkansas in
2018. This annual program, now in its sixth year, was created by
Arkansas Business and Best Companies Group.
The Best Places to Work in Arkansas survey and awards program
was designed to identify, recognize, and honor the best employers
in Arkansas that are benefitting the state's economy, workforce,
and businesses. 40 companies were recognized this year, including
the Information Network of Arkansas.
"We are incredibly pleased to be selected as one of the best
places to work again this year," AIC General Manager Bob Sanders
said. "One of our basic values is to be the best place our
employees have ever worked. We take that seriously because we
believe happy employees are motivated to produce high-quality work
and to provide great customer service. Receiving this recognition
demonstrates that commitment and encourages to continue our efforts
at making AIC a great place to work."
AIC is better known to its Arkansas government partners as the
Information Network of Arkansas (INA)—the Governor-appointed board
that oversees AIC's contract with the state. Since AIC was awarded
its first digital government services contract with the state in
1997, the Little Rock-based subsidiary of NIC Inc. has developed
850+ Arkansas government websites and payment processing
applications, grown from 4 to 36 employees, and created dozens of
new technology jobs in Arkansas.
Companies were required to meet the following eligibility
requirements to be considered for participation:
- Be a for-profit, not-for-profit
business or government entity
- Be a publicly or privately held
business
- Have a facility in Arkansas
- Have at least 15 permanent employees
working in Arkansas
- Be in business a minimum of one
year.
Companies from across the state entered the two-part survey
process to determine the Best Places to Work in Arkansas. The two
surveys gather detailed data about each participating company. Best
Companies Group (BCG) conducts the surveys, analyzes the data and
determines the winners and rankings.
The overall winner and rankings will be revealed at a luncheon
that will take place on Thursday, September 27 at 11:30 am at
Embassy Suites, Little Rock.
