Under the alliance, Andersen will provide Built-on-BEA solutions to companies across a broad range of industries to optimize complex transaction processing and to integrate legacy and Web-based applications on a single, standards-based platform.
The two organizations have agreed to collaborate on marketing and sales programs worldwide, and to expand current programs to train Andersen professionals working with the BEA WebLogic E-Business Platform. The BEA WebLogic E-Business Platform is a single solution for enterprise and e-business applications that require commerce, portal, integration and Web Services capabilities.
Global companies, many of which are dealing with merger/acquisition activity, require a technology solution that can offer disparate systems integration, speed to market, high scalability and lower overall costs, said Rick Turner, Andersen partner and co-leader of the BEA alliance. Andersen’s alliance with BEA complements our strategic emphasis on the Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) platform and enables us to build customized solutions that ensure client needs, critical processes and underlying technology architectures are in alignment.
The BEA WebLogic E-Business Platform provides Andersen with a reliable application infrastructure for technology solutions tied to solid business strategy. It enables Andersen to accelerate the delivery of solutions for new Web-based revenue models and improved enterprise-wide efficiencies.
We’re very pleased to work with Andersen in building solutions based on the BEA WebLogic E-Business Platform, which will enable Andersen to deliver powerful enterprise solutions to its clients, said John Gray, BEA vice president of global strategic alliances. Our continued collaboration will broaden the options available to organizations seeking best-of-breed solutions from a world-leading professional services firm.
