TORONTO, April 6, 2017 /CNW/ - Symbility Intersect
("Intersect"), a division of Symbility Solutions Inc.,
("Symbility") (TSX.V: SY), is proud to announce that they have won
the Liquor Control Board of Ontario's ("LCBO") first ever IT Partner Award
at their 2017 Partner Summit. The award recognizes a technology
partner that collaborates effectively and efficiently with the
LCBO, one of the world's largest buyers and retailers of beverage
alcohol, to help them achieve their IT business goals. Intersect
worked in close partnership with the LCBO to build a Centre of
Excellence for mobile enablement and create a digital factory for
the agile development and efficient digital transformation. This
included helping redesign, develop and deploy the LCBO app for both
the iOS and Android platforms. Not a typical-looking partner for a
government enterprise, Intersect offered a startup-like makeup that
not only helped deliver a great product but had a positive impact
on the development culture at the LCBO. The relationship has
influenced the people, process and tool sets and methodologies in
place at the LCBO.
"Working with the Symbility Intersect team was not only a great
process, but also a great learning experience," said Michael Eubanks, IT SVP and CIO for LCBO. "By
deeply integrating our teams for this project, we were able to get
exposure to and actively practice agile development. This new
process will allow us to move quicker and be more efficient from
now on. This type of experience is what makes for a great
partner."
The LCBO IT Partner Award was designed to recognize those
partners that show service delivery excellence, leadership,
innovation, and create relationships that contribute to the LCBO's
priorities and goals. By taking on this project and working
hand-in-hand to push and learn from one another, Intersect
exemplifies and went beyond each of the qualities.
"We are honoured to be selected as the LCBO IT Partner of the
Year. Our job is to help our clients move smarter and faster -
regardless of their size - but we see the impact we have on our
clients like the LCBO, banks, insurance companies, and other large
organizations and it's a major point of pride for the entire
Symbility Intersect team," said Paul
Crowe, CEO of Symbility Intersect. "To the LCBO's credit,
they came to us looking to do things different, and to learn from
us with how we approach the strategy, design, and development of
great experiences. It's wonderful to see the LCBO thinking this way
and looking to get nimbler and more innovative."
