Harris Corporation Named One of Most Admired Companies by Fortune Magazine
Harris ranked as the fourth most admired company in the "Network Communications" category — up from seventh last year. The company was rated a 7.01 on the survey this year, compared with a 6.21 rating last year. Harris ranked second in the industry in financial soundness, long-term investment and social responsibility, and third in the industry for quality of products and services, quality of management, and use of corporate assets. Other companies in the top five for the category were Cisco Systems, Corning, Juniper Networks, and Qualcomm.
"It is an honor to be rated highly by our peers and others within the industry," said Howard L. Lance, chairman, president and Chief Executive Officer. "Being named one of the most admired companies is a testament to the success that our 16,000 employees have achieved in delivering highly reliable, secure, assured communication(R) for our customers' most demanding, mission- critical applications. We are pleased that our customers and others in our industry perceive us this way."
To determine the most admired companies, Fortune started with the 1,000 largest U.S. companies ranked by revenue — and the top foreign companies operating in the U.S. The companies were sorted by 63 industries and then culled to the ten largest in each industry. Fortune then asked executives, directors, and analysts to rate the top ten companies in their own industry on eight criteria, including: innovation, people management, use of corporate assets, social responsibility, quality of management, financial soundness, long-term investment, and quality of products and services. Only the top five ranking companies in each industry were listed in the final results.
