Vancouver, BC, March 7, 2019 – ACL, one of Canada’s most prominent software companies, has been recognized for overall business performance and sustained growth with the prestigious Canada’s Best Managed Companies designation. The 2019 Best Managed program award winners are amongst the best-in-class of Canadian owned and managed companies with revenues over $15 million. Winners demonstrate strategy, capability and commitment to achieve sustainable growth.

“To be a successful business today means a long-term approach to the company mission, high investment in talent and clear capabilities for achieving growth,” said Laurie Schultz, CEO of ACL. “We couldn’t be more pleased to be recognized for outstanding achievement in these categories through the Best Managed designation.”

Now in its 26th year, Canada’s Best Managed Companies is one of the country’s leading business awards programs, recognizing Canadian-owned and managed companies for innovative, world-class business practices. Applicants are evaluated by an independent judging panel comprised of representatives from program sponsors in addition to special guest judges. 2019 Best Managed companies share commonalities that include a clear strategy and vision, investment in capability and commitment to talent.

ACL is awarded the designation for its clear corporate strategy, informed by its vision and mission and anchored in core values of customer intensity, authenticity and disruptive innovation. ACL’s corporate strategy is complemented by high investment in new capabilities and technological advancements within the company to ensure teams are working better, faster and stronger. Through the core belief that strong culture is a competitive advantage, ACL builds its vision through hiring culture contributors, and investing in leadership and skill development through initiatives like their Change Agents and Emerging Leaders programs.

“The contribution these companies provide to Canada cannot be overstated. Every year, Best Managed winners are raising the bar of excellence in Canadian business,” said Peter Brown, National Co-Leader, Canada’s Best Managed Companies program.

2019 winners of the Canada’s Best Managed Companies award will be honoured at the annual Canada’s Best Managed Companies gala in Toronto on April 17, 2019. On the same date, the Best Managed symposium will address leading-edge business issues that are key to the success of today’s business leaders.

The Best Managed program is sponsored by Deloitte Private, CIBC, Canadian Business, Smith School of Business, and TMX Group.
