 innovation. Others are renowned for their effective implementation of new products, services and strategies. A clever few manage to do both.

Buyers of technology products and services, engaged in the difficult process of assessing possible vendors, need to find the best balance of those qualities: a balance that matches their own business and technical requirements.

Now there's a tool that can help their deliberations. ABI Abi (ā`bī) [short for Abijah], in the Bible, King Hezekiah's mother.

 Research, the N.Y.-based technology market research organization, announces the launch of a new analytical instrument, the ABI Research Vendor Matrix.

ABI Research carries out detailed studies and analyses of technology markets and the organizations that make them up. The depth of its accumulated knowledge now allows it to assess the position of a technology vendor on a chart comparing companies' performance in relation to those two important parameters, "innovation" and "implementation". This chart is the unique "ABI Research Vendor Matrix."

How does it work?

Our "innovation" analysis examines a vendor's relevant, defensible intellectual property differentiation, the nature of their R&D activities, and their "growth market focus."

To evaluate "implementation," analysts look to actual product development, contract wins, and successful execution of projects, among other criteria.

Our analysts supplement these evaluations by discussing market conditions with companies active in the field, to arrive at an easily understood visual performance model. ABI Research's breadth and depth of exposure to hardware, software, and service companies allows us to serve the market with this well-informed, independent assessment.

While innovation and implementation both have value, a high ranking See Google bomb.  on both axes indicates a vendor that's a clear leader in its field.

The ABI Research Vendor Matrix will recognize excellence in these markets: RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) A data collection technology that uses electronic tags for storing data. The tag, also known as an "electronic label," "transponder" or "code plate," is made up of an RFID chip attached to an antenna. , residential entertainment technologies, Wi-Fi, OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and  telematics and aftermarket telematics.
