“We just delivered our TSM Client 6.2.2 PTF, and I can say the 6.2.2 PTF was one of our more complex PTF deliveries. TSM 6.2.2 was challenging in many areas and many thanks go out to the Minsk team members that helped with development, test, defects and the APAR fixes that were shipped with the 6.2.2 Clients. The significant work efforts mentioned here are just a few of the more critical ones where the analysis, coding and testing had to be done very quickly while maintaining a high standard of quality. The year 2010 was a challenging year, especially in service, and I want to thank the team for their responsiveness and flexibility in being able to shift their focus quickly as the priorities changed. Your continual efforts on identifying skill needs, the cross training and workload balancing are a key reason we consistently meet our L2 assist turnaround times and our APAR and defect targets while again maintaining high quality standards .”

"I'd like to take the time to thank IBA for the work they completed for us on a new compliance tool. Many of our clients had voiced a need for a tool that would help them control who had access to their applications. There were a few tools that helped with this, but no tool that did all of the work needed and most of these tools were very hard to use. Many of our clients found it easier to manually perform all necessary tasks (which was very time consuming) than to use the existing tools. The IBA team came up with a design that covered all standards, concerns and issues. From that they were able to give a sizing to the effort required. This sizing was easily converted into a schedule. They created a presentation that we went to the client with for approval to begin work. This presentation was of extremely high quality. All clients gave the approval to continue the development. Tasks were created and assigned, a communication vehicle was set up, and the work began. The IBA team was up to the challenge! The work was completed on schedule! To show the interface to the clients, IBA suggested that we set up a Lotus Live meeting and demonstrate the tool itself, rather than make a presentation. This turned out to be exactly the right thing to do. After our demo all clients were given the application to test. The testing results were amazing. The clients only came back with a few suggestions of changes - no errors - no misses! Working with the IBA ream is a pleasure each and every day! I can depend on them to get the job done no matter the obstacles. There is nothing that can make a project manager feel more comfortable than to have one of their team mates suggest that another course of action might be better. They are always very professional, courteous, polite, and a joy to work with! Thanks for all the great work!"

“I would like to thank the IBA team for the strong implication and support they have been providing to the Subsystems Scanners project. The IBA team delivered 13 releases of Subsystems Scanners through 2008/2010. These solutions permitted to address compliance for 40 different subsystems (middleware or application frameworks) on Windows and main UNIX platforms. The team showed a lot of engagement. Target dates were respected, high quality source code implemented, and effective and timely bug resolution provided. The solutions have obtained very good references from end users since 2009. The team members' availability was a key success factor for the project. It was a very positive experience to work with the IBA team because they permanently supported the project.

“The Spectron 2G project is the first project ever that was outsourced by Spectron Business Solutions. This decision needed a strong change management from our own R&D and business department. Due to the distance (Antwerp – Minsk), we needed to install new methods of communication and follow-up. With help and experience of IBA we succeeded. The Spectron 2G project had much to do with Belgian data and culture. Not always easy for IBA personnel to understand! IBA proved to be a solid, flexible, understanding and reliable partner in designing, developing and testing our new applications. I want to congratulate the IBA team for the work they have done. Spectron Business Solutions continues to cooperate with IBA in the future.”

“IBA was the right choice as partner for Spectron2G. Now it is a good moment to thank you all for the efforts made. A lot of people were involved in this project: some of you from the beginning to the end, others just for a short time, some of you I could meet face to face, others I just know from chat or email. But during the project I felt the engagement was very high and everyone was proud on his job. There were of course a lot of problems like in every project: specifications were not always clear enough, a lot of documentation was in Dutch, some miscommunication, business logic which seemed to be a little bit strange. But always you manage to overcome them. To all of you who went to another project I want to say: I hope you liked it to work for the Spectron project. We liked it to work with you and maybe we meet again. For those who stay: I hope you will like it in the future as well and I hope we can continue for a long time. Thanks you did a great job!”

“Together with IBA we implemented a new SOA-based solution for the dynamic workload allocation and intelligent document management for a major insurance company in Germany. While business analysis and architectural work was done by IBM resources most of the development was executed in timely manner by our IBA colleagues. The IBA team was highly motivated and delivered excellent results. I was especially impressed by the flexibility and customer orientation of the team. As a result we together delivered a successful deployment of our software product and were able to expand the relationship to our client. Thanks to the dedication and effort of the IBA-Team the client awarded us a five years application maintenance contract. A big success story for IBA and IBM. ”

“The team was given a difficult assignment that meant rescuing a project that was behind schedule and that had suffered from inexperienced engineers not being able to deliver the required functionality. To make matters more difficult, our client had no system documentation for us that could be used to speed up the learning curve. Team members have proven themselves to be outstanding engineers and a pleasure to work with. They tackle each and every problem efficiently and effectively and have put the project back on track. IBA provides excellent customer service and the engineers' performance has been exceptional. I look forward to doing more business with IBA.”

“Twice again, I've been very impressed with IBA's performance. The engineers we're getting for our team are continuously proving themselves to be talented and dedicated. For the 1st project, your employees took a horribly difficult situation and have stabilized it in a few short weeks. Our client is happy again and the support is being handled well. For the 2nd project, the team has provided great technical solutions for tough problems and have stayed late and worked diligently to deliver a lot of work in a short amount of time. This client is also very happy. Making the switch to IBA has proven to be a great decision for us and we expect to continue to adding more and more IBA engineers to our team.”

“I have worked with the IBA group for many years (around 5 years) and my experience working with them has been extremely positive. This has been on both development and maintenance projects. The teams that I have worked with have excellent technical and communication skills, many of them very keen to learn and further develop. They are excellent problem-solvers, often staying back late to get problems fixed, and they always produce high quality work products. All of the customers on my projects have been extremely satisfied with the level of service they provide. This has been demonstrated by the customer satisfaction surveys carried out earlier this year – both projects achieving 100% customer satisfaction. I would most definitely recommend them to other areas of IBM.”

now that we have come to the release of the IDAC Euro Project fix, let me thank you all very much for your constant and quick support during the past weeks.

“Though I've only been working with the Minsk team for a short while it didn't take long to walk away impressed. Not only do they have exceptional technical skills, they also excel at working with the customer, and with picking up new technologies. Although I primarily use them for Lotus Notes development type activities, they have proven just a valuable on other projects using alternate technologies such as Lotus Approach, JavaScript, etc. Their ability to jump into these new technologies, learn on the fly, and make a major impact on the final product is not only impressive but also essential when managing dynamic projects with constant change. Their pro-active attitudes and desire to enhance the delivered product has been felt on all of my applications and is greatly appreciated. Thank you Minsk team...”

“Put into operation in November 2008, the Milavitsa Information and Analytical Management System (IAMS) comprises basic Axapta 3.0 functionality and the functions that IBA developed at the request of JV JSC Milavitsa. IAMS is integrated with other management systems functioning at Milavitsa. These systems are based on FoxPro and Delphi/MS SQL (export/import of files of a preset size). The total number of management systems with which IAMS is integrated is five.

The IAMS implementation enabled us to:

• Optimize the movements of raw materials through automatic calculation within a technological process. The legacy automated systems were capable of calculation within a production order and could not provide the required efficiency and precision of movements of raw materials and semi-finished goods. The introduction of the new system allowed us to abandon the use of limit-collection cards.
• Manage warehouses of finished goods. The legacy automated system did not provide the required level of management efficiency for a growing number of warehouses.” Read the full reference
