Combined InConcert and BEA EAI solution to synchronise business applications, employees and business partners

Inconcert demonstrates integration with BEA Middleware to provide business logic for telco infrastructures

Johannesburg, 31 May 1999

InConcert, Inc., the leading provider of enterprise business integration solutions, is demonstrating its range of powerful process management software at BEA`s European Middleware Conference, Paris, France (20-21 May 1999).

Earlier this year, InConcert announced tight integration with BEA TUXEDO. In addition, BEA announced that it is integrating and bundling leading business process workflow management solutions from InConcert as part of BEA eLink Server. The product integration allows businesses to integrate their applications into large-scale, highly reliable, extremely flexible business systems. InConcert is presenting this integration with BEA TUXEDO at its booth with an order entry process scenario that demonstrates the added value that a process management solution can provide in a telecommunications middleware environment.

InConcert`s process-driven infrastructure provides telecommunications customers with the ability to synchronise and dynamically adapt their business processes, operational infrastructure and underlying information systems to rapidly changing market conditions. Migration to an Enterprise Business Integration architecture accelerates a company`s conversion from a product-centric business model to a customer-centric business model by co-ordinating all customer-facing functions across product lines, functional areas and distribution channels.

"BEA is the market leader in the telecommunications middleware market counting 30 out of 30 of the world`s largest telecommunications companies as customers," said Ulrich Wenz, managing director of InConcert Europe. "By combining Teoss 2000, our next-generation Enterprise Business Integration backbone with the reliability and scalability of the BEA TUXEDO middleware, customers can deploy end-to-end solutions in a robust and reliable environment that scales well to meet their expanding and changing needs. InConcert and BEA are already involved in some major projects in Europe, especially in the telecommunications arena, only three months after product launch."

"Telecommunications companies have to meet a diverse set of business needs in a fast-changing market. Business logic is a very valuable asset in this environment. While applications and legacy systems may change relatively slowly, telecommunications companies face a significant challenge to be able to rapidly adapt business processes to changing market requirements and to quickly offer new products and services," said Roy Barnes, sales director for telecommunications for BEA Southern Europe. "Teoss 2000 provides BEA TUXEDO users with the ability to synchronise and dynamically adapt their business processes, operational infrastructures and underlying information systems to rapidly changing market conditions. Teoss 2000 and BEA middleware combine to offer telcos competing in the dynamic communications market reliable, scalable, solutions they can implement today, to meet their goals and customer expectations."

With Teoss 2000, corporations can quickly achieve:

  • Consistent and complete interactions ensuring increased customer satisfaction

  • Higher customer service employee productivity

  • Centralized business process management and customer contact

  • Front- and back-office application and information synchronisation

  • Replacement of manual tasks with faster, more accurate, automated processes

  • Continuous real-time availability of business performance management

Enterprise Business Integration Solutions

InConcert`s Enterprise Business Integration solutions enable companies to take a top-down approach to integrating multiple environments.

InConcert lets organisations unlock the valuable information in various legacy systems, and bring together a corporation`s "silos of information" by incorporating superior process management capabilities,and link people, applications and information into cohesive and process-based system.
