Digia to design and implement portal and integration projects for Senate Properties


Through public tendering SYSOPENDIGIA has been selected to supply Senate Properties with expert services for further development and maintenance of the company's portal and integration projects. Long-term plans for the development projects have been made, including tasks related to the architecture, integration of interfaces into data warehouse solutions and user administration for 2006-2007. BEA's portal and integration technology will be used in the development.

In the projects to be implemented for Senate Properties the company's business processes and requirements engineering will be developed based on SYSOPENDIGIA's OpenMethod.

"In order to integrate several different systems we wanted a supplier who is an expert in designing new architectures and integrating old systems. The integration of business processes that we hope to achieve in this way supports our goals, such as a central information management and better services for our clients," says Antti Koskinen, Information Management Director, ICT services, Senate Properties.

With the architecture designed by SYSOPENDIGIA, Senate Properties focuses the company's present services around a company portal in the form of an integrated comprehensive system.

"We have been selected by Senate Properties for challenging process development projects for several years. Our partnership has developed favourably and now we were given an opportunity to strengthen the already excellent co-operation between us and Senate Properties through our technical know-how," says Tuomo Permikangas, Manager, SYSOPENDIGIA.
