"Having excellent partners like eg at the centre of our work is part of the Microsoft way of doing business," Beswick said.
"With a track record of providing first rate solutions for some of the biggest names in the financial services sector, combined with a commitment to investing in skills, training and people, eg will be a welcome addition to the Microsoft channel." As part of its innovative RandD programme, eg has redeveloped its work, resource and performance management software, eg work manager using Microsoft .NET to further enable its integration capabilities with other technologies, and to empower disparate sites to share information via the web.
The new version will be known as eg work manager enterprise.
eg work manager provides clients with the means for achieving improvements in customer service and quality together with guaranteed cost reduction.
An additional benefit is the management information and total transparency in the activities it covers.
At a time when Corporate Governance and Compliance is high on the agenda eg work manager offers vital information about operational performance and a level of detail that most companies currently find impossible to produce.
eg work manager enterprise extends this ability across many sites so that fragmented businesses can obtain consistent, real-time information about activity levels and performance.
Elizabeth Gooch, Managing Director of eg said "We have chosen to use the Microsoft .NET framework because of its close fit with our clients' IT strategies.
It also provides for greater development productivity, so it makes sense for us too.
By becoming a business partner with Microsoft we are strengthening our capability through direct access to Microsoft's technical expertise.
We are also adopting Microsoft development standards so we can become a fully certified partner.
"Our software already provides immediate return on investment.
But implementation also helps clients improve their use of Microsoft tools.
Many companies already have licences for Microsoft software and deploying eg work manager provides the opportunity to add real value to tools they already have.".
