Customer News Release
Miro Technologies recognized by Frost & Sullivan for defense logistics product line strategy
La Jolla, CA – April 30, 2009
Based on in-depth analysis of best practices in the defence logistics industry, Frost & Sullivan has awarded Miro Technologies its 2009 European Defense Logistics Product Line Strategy Award. This industry accolade is presented annually to the company that has demonstrated the most insight into customer needs and product demands. Miro executives will formally accept the award at an upcoming Frost & Sullivan awards banquet recognizing world-class performances.
A release by Frost & Sullivan noted that Miro's exceptional product line strategy focuses on four key aspects — end-user needs, market expansion, latest technology and effective business practices.
"Continuous tracking of end user needs, a focus on retaining existing customers, timely provision of economical, high quality solutions coupled with comprehensive client training programs have underpinned the company's success," states Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Srinivas Sishtla.
"Another area where Miro Technologies scores over its competitors is in providing high quality solutions at a reasonable price with a very short time to market," adds Sishtla. "The WRAM Online solution, a derivative of Miro's flagship GOLDesp™ application, was delivered to the U.K. MoD within ten months from the day the contract was awarded and within the budget constraints set by the MoD."
"Product line strategy at Miro Technologies starts with listening and working closely with customers to understand their business issues and future supply chain needs," states Vincent Monteparte, President and CEO of Miro Technologies. "This approach, combined with agile business processes and adoption of latest technologies, has enabled us to consistently deliver quality solutions and grow our business."
"On the technology front, Miro Technologies has been among the pioneers in adopting state-of-the-art technology periodically to design and implement low-cost, high quality MRO information systems products," remarks Sishtla. Its new generation logistics and maintenance management product, GOLDesp, combines the battle-proven features of Miro Technologies' highly successful WRAM application with a new graphical user interface built with the latest Oracle and Java technologies. Further, the maintenance module of GOLDesp is designed to autonomously support deployed units in the field and at sea by means of effective data distribution.
"The company provides quality assurance throughout the software development lifecycle," comments Sishtla. "It also provides full project management for in-depth schedule and budgetary control, tailored for customer management and auditing needs."
