Notes: 
1. Gartner Opinion and Peer Opinion: Based on each panel's forced-rank ordering against the definition of "DDVN orchestrator" 
2. ROA: ((2013 net income / 2013 total assets) * 50%) + ((2012 net income / 2012 total assets) * 30%) + ((2011 net income / 2011 total assets) * 20%) 
3. Inventory Turns: 2013 cost of goods sold / 2013 quarterly average inventory 
4. Revenue Growth: ((change in revenue 2013-2012) * 50%) + ((change in revenue 2012-2011) * 30%) + ((change in revenue 2011-2010) * 20%) 
5. Composite Score: (Peer Opinion * 25%) + (Gartner Research Opinion * 25%) + (ROA * 25%) + (Inventory Turns * 15%) + (Revenue Growth * 10%) 
2013 data used where available. Where unavailable, latest available full-year data used. All raw data normalized to a 10-point scale prior to composite calculation. "Ranks" for tied composite scores are determined using next decimal point comparison.
