SYNOPSIS: A. van Delft named best in Sales Force Enablement
category DUBLIN, Calif., Nov. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
iAnywhere, a subsidiary of Sybase, Inc. (NYSE:SY), is pleased to
announce that its customer, A. van Delft International B.V., is the
recipient of the 2005 Mobile Impact(TM) Award in the Sales Force
Enablement category. The Mobile Impact Awards are presented by the
Mobile Enterprise Alliance (MEA), a global advocacy group promoting
the business benefits of workforce mobility to enterprise end users
and decision makers. The prestigious awards honor leading
enterprises for successful and innovative deployments of mobile
enterprise solutions that successfully balance technology
investments with business objectives. The winning case studies can
be viewed at: http://www.mobileenterprise.org/awards. A. van Delft
International B.V., one of the leading suppliers of cut flowers in
the Netherlands, focuses primarily on service, automation and
modern technology. After a detailed market assessment, system
integrator Omnimove decided to use M-Business Anywhere(TM) by
iAnywhere as the server platform for A. van Delft's mobile system
extension. M-Business Anywhere provides a platform for delivering
Web-based content and applications to mobile devices rapidly and
cost-effectively -- with minimal recoding. A local database on the
mobile device contains information on all customers and a list of
merchandise with more than 1500 different flowers. All transactions
can be performed independently of a network connection, and as a
result they are "always available." The results of this new mobile
system include faster and almost error-free delivery and order
handling for A. van Delft International. "A. van Delft
International exemplifies the mission of this awards program:
successful and innovative deployment of a mobile solution that
balances technology investments with business objectives," stated
Daniel Taylor, managing director, MEA. "Congratulations to A. van
Delft International on this prestigious award. It's innovative
companies like A. van Delft who demonstrate the significant
real-world benefits of mobilizing business processes," said Brian
Vink, vice president of marketing at iAnywhere. "iAnywhere is
honored that our M- Business Anywhere platform was selected to be a
key component of A. van Delft's award-winning mobile solution."
Mobile Impact Award nominations were submitted from around the
world as case studies in seven categories. The entries were
evaluated by an independent group of judges including leading
editors and analysts Kara Gattine, associate editor of TechTarget's
SearchNetworking and SearchMobileComputing, Eugene Signorini of
Yankee Group, John Stehman of Robert Frances Group, and Robert
Alcock of InterComms magazine. The seven winners were announced via
a podcast on November 15 in conjunction with TechTarget's
SearchMobileComputing.com. About the Mobile Enterprise Alliance
