Oslo, Norway - November 2001 - In joint co-operation MarineProvider and Xantic
(former SpecTec) have built an integration module linking the AMOS Maintenance
& Purchase software (AMOS M&P) version 5.0 with MarineProvider's e-procurement
solution, resulting in a total seamless integration.
"Each customer that upgrades to AMOS M&P version 5.0 receives a complete
e-Procurement enabled version that contains everything needed to work seamlessly
with MarineProvider's e-procurement solution. AMOS users do not need any special
additional patches or custom configuration work done", says Collin Lewis,
CEO of MarineProvider ASA.
"The customer will not have to leave his AMOS purchasing system and re-key
information from one system to another or to an exchange website", says
Collin Lewis, CEO of MarineProvider. "This means no additional software
or training for the user, only a much easier and faster way of doing business".
"MarineProvider required a much deeper integration than the generic portal
driver functionality in our e-commerce module. The MarineProvider integration
module will give a better functionality to our customers and an excellent opportunity
for us to grow our business", says Paul Ashton, Director - Technology and
Innovations - of Xantic.
Xantic was formed as a result of a merger between three different organisations:
Station 12, SpecTec and Telstra Global Satellite. This powerful combination
means Xantic is the first company to offer a genuine one-stop solution for mobile
satcom, maritime ICT and satellite broadband communications solutions, delivered
to global customers through 29 offices and agents worldwide. With a world market
share of over 25%, the company claims to be the leading provider of mobile satcom
services via the Inmarsat platform.
MarineProvider, headquartered in Oslo, is a highly secure and neutral Internet-based
e-procurement integration solution for the maritime industry. MarineProvider
has offices in the USA, the United Kingdom, and Hong Kong, and has partnership
agreements with third-party supply-chain, credit and insurance companies, as
well as other complementary marketplaces worldwide.
