ECW today announced that it had renamed its mobile unit as Bhyve Technologies.
"We decided to rename our mobile unit in order to avoid any confusion in the market since the name Lava is often used in conjunction with all our various enterprise content management activities," commented Ray Dalgarno, MD of ECW. "The timing is very appropriate since until recently, our mobile unit has been heavily involved in creating these world-first, cellular software developments. However, the focus going forward will be orientated around the exploitation of these developments and the strategic partnership that have been put in place to handle them."
Further announcements regarding the specific developments and the associated partnerships will forthcoming over the next few weeks, concluded Dalgarno."

ECW is the merged entity of Lava Systems Africa and Lava Systems Mobile (LSM).
The Lava Systems Africa (LSA) team originated in the late 1990's with the objective of becoming a premier supplier of enterprise systems based around Knowledge Management, Document Management, Records Management, Image Management, Collaboration and Workflow solutions. The emerging demands that were identified included Government Process re-engineering, Supply Chain Co-ordination, Customer Relationship Management, e-Government and B2B processing. In support of these business aims the technology platforms chosen had to enjoy a proven global track record and adhere to open Internet architecture standards and developments. LSA is a South African-based company dedicated to the sales, marketing, support and consultancy founded upon the Livelink product suite from Open Text, a product that the staff have been involved with since 1998. LSA user base embraces customers from both the private and public sector and includes organisations such as Bateman Projects Limited, Alexander Forbes, the Gauteng Provincial Government and the National Social Security Fund of Uganda. Lava Systems Mobile, a company focusing on the development of mobile applications and tools, was originally created in 2005 and later that year absorbed KeyTools, a well established mobile applications software developer with international links.
