Fabasoft Cloud Platform wins ECM Award 2012 Germany

LINZ, Austria--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The ECM Award 2012 honors the best ECM projects and ECM providers in Germany. Fabasoft partner SSC-Services GmbH received the much coveted award in the category “innovative project implementation” for a software service based on the Fabasoft Cloud Platform. This application enables automobile manufacturers to optimize the trans-company and trans-country management of product certificates for vehicle components.

“SSC-Services GmbH impressed the jury with an innovative project implementation using the Fabasoft Cloud Platform. This project strongly shows that the cloud has become a serious option for the quick and efficient implementation of ECM solutions.”

Fabasoft project partner SSC-Services GmbH impressed the jury of independent experts with their innovative ECM project in the cloud: A solution for certificate management in the automobile industry. In a global market the efficient management of product certificates is of equally decisive importance for both manufacturers and their suppliers. The lack of just one valid certificate for a tire type or windscreen wiper can trigger an import stop with unforeseeable consequences.

SSC-Services GmbH developed a software service for this on the basis of the Fabasoft Cloud Platform, which is instantly and globally available. Security plays a vital role here. The global management of certificates takes place in team rooms, to which only explicitly authorized, invited and securely authenticated business contacts have access. Secure access is possible anytime and anywhere, also for mobile users on tablets and smartphones.

With the worldwide unique concept of cloud locations, the Fabasoft Cloud Platform offers customers the freedom of choice and assurance of a data residency option. Germany, Austria and shortly Switzerland are available as cloud locations. With the Fabasoft Cloud Platform, customers even have the possibility to set up a cloud location in their own company data centers and to dock into the public cloud (hybrid cloud).

Karl Strecker, Managing Director SSC-Services GmbH, sees the award-winning project as a prime example for future projects: “We hope that receiving the ECM Award generates a signal effect for the idea of building efficient, innovative solutions quickly and cost-effectively using suitable platforms with specific process know-how. This would be a major step forward.”

Guido Schmitz, Executive Director Pentadoc AG, agrees: “SSC-Services GmbH impressed the jury with an innovative project implementation using the Fabasoft Cloud Platform. This project strongly shows that the cloud has become a serious option for the quick and efficient implementation of ECM solutions.”

Helmut Fallmann, Member of the Board of Directors, Fabasoft AG, is convinced: “The Fabasoft Cloud Platform is the right route into the cloud for our partners because it is extremely powerful and provides mature ECM features at the cutting edge of technology. Cloud-to-market for us means the implementation of top quality customer-specific solutions and processes in record time – with Cloud Apps, the business applications of the future.”

The Fabasoft Cloud Developer Conference takes place December 12 – 14, 2012 in Linz, Austria. High caliber experts including Dr. Stefan Ried, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research and Christian Muntwiler, Management Consultant and lecturer at the St. Galler Business School, will be communicating the right way into the cloud with the Fabasoft Cloud Platform. http://cdc.fabasoft.com
