SOUTH PLAINFIELD, N.J., Oct 09, 2007 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Global Bay, the leader in providing mobile information management applications, has teamed with IBM to deliver innovative solutions for the retail sector. Since 2002, through its AccessPoint Mobile Information Management System software, they have delivered enterprise class mobile solutions to hundreds of customers across the globe, ranging from government agencies and multinational corporations to small and medium sized enterprises across a number of sectors. Global Bay has now successfully completed technology validation of its solution on the IBM Store Integration Framework--IBM's flexible, scalable Java(TM) 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE), operating environment and componentized architecture, built for retail stores using industry-leading IBM middleware.
Through this initiative, IBM works with select IBM Business Partners to validate solutions that meet a rigorous assessment of next-generation, open-standards-based store environments. The Ready for IBM Retail Store Innovations - Store Integration Framework initiative brings together platform-independent software vendors that deliver proven solutions designed and built for the retail industry.
The AccessPoint Mobile Information Management solution allows for the delivery of mobile applications better, cheaper and faster then any other vendor in the market. AccessPoint allows the full life cycle (creation, deployment, management and data analysis) of manual tasks, or processes, into an automated mobile application. This allows mobile workers to collect data and synchronize to the enterprise, allowing access to enterprise data at the Point of Capture. Applications in retail include line-busting, mobile point of sale, store audits, inspections and customer insights.
Global Bay's software is the perfect compliment to IBM's time-tested product sets, offering the retail client rapidly deployed robust mobile solutions backed up by IBM's technical and business expertise.
"We are very excited to be teaming with one of the most respected technology and business solutions providers in the world," said Global Bay Founder and CEO Sandeep Bhanote. "This means we will be able to provide our world class mobile information management solution to an even wider retail audience," continued Sandeep. "In addition to technical certifications by Cingular and Motorola, adding IBM Business Partner status continues to confirm our mobile solution as a best-in-class enterprise solution."
