Innovation of the Year - BB&T/Atlas
In a short award ceremony video, several BB&T leaders congratulate the team behind Atlas for winning the Innovation of the Year award. Atlas is described as an internal, one‑click platform that aggregates more than 12 disparate data sources across BB&T into a single, easy‑to‑use interface. Speakers highlight its ability to instantly surface floor plans, property images, lines of business, and workforce/commute analytics. The tool is credited with dramatically speeding up decision‑making, reducing the need for multiple personnel, and delivering cost savings estimated in the hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars per year. The presentation mixes celebratory remarks with concrete examples of how Atlas streamlines information access and improves operational efficiency.
