IBM Cyprus and BluePhoenix Solutions combined their expertise to respond to the current variable market situation and help local organizations prepare for the transition to the euro. Both companies provide complete solutions to organizations that wish to migrate from the Cyprus pound to the euro.
The euro migration services offered by IBM and BluePhoenix Solutions cover the whole spectrum of customer needs, providing consultancy services for the preparation of a strategic migration to euro readiness, the mapping of applications and the creation of a migration plan. IBM and BluePhoenix currently work with customers in Cyprus to help them address the euro challenge.
"IBM has experience with complex projects and implementations and provides companies with complete consulting services for the euro transition," said Kyriacos Kokkinos, general manager, IBM Cyprus. "We are confident that IBM's selection as the implementer of these solutions will meet our customers' expectations. IBM is committed to responding timely and effectively to this difficult role."
"BluePhoenix has been successfully providing euro conversion solutions since their initial introduction in January 1999," said Hanan Stempler, vice president of sales at BluePhoenix.
