HMS software and tehtra annonce new allian partnership
Montreal-based Microsoft Gold Certified partners join forces on project management, collaboration and enterprise timesheets
Montreal, December 11, 2008 - HMS Software, a leading provider of project management and enterprise timesheet solutions, has announced a new partnership with Techtra®, a Montreal-based provider of Business Processes Automation and Advanced Information Management solutions.
"This alliance brings together two companies who are experts in their field," says Chris Vandersluis, President of HMS Software. "Techtra provides expertise in SharePoint deployments and has a range of SharePoint add-on tools that we can recommend to our clients. In turn, HMS Software's expertise in enterprise project management and enterprise timesheet systems will be of interest to some of Techtra's clients."
Both companies offer products that work with Microsoft's SharePoint technology. Techtra has developed and distributes its own line of SharePoint based tools and solutions including Mail2Share for integration of email with SharePoint, iRecruit, iCare and PaperlessBoard solutions for both the private and public sectors. In addition, Techtra has established an extensive service market based on SharePoint. As part of this alliance, HMS will update their clients on the Techtra solutions.
HMS Software has established an extensive Microsoft Project Server based service market and Techtra will make those services available to its clients. In addition, Techtra will become a reseller of TimeControl, HMS Software's enterprise timesheet system. TimeControl can be deployed within its own interface or integrated directly into both SharePoint and Microsoft Project Server's Project Web Access.
"We're very excited about the new alliance with HMS Software," says Techtra President, Andre Larose. "In our industry it is not often you get an opportunity for two companies with such good reputations and such a high standard of technical expertise to coordinate their actions. We see providing access to HMS Software's TimeControl and its project management expertise as a significant benefit for our clients and we believe that in turn, HMS Software's clients will be able to take advantage of our SharePoint products and services."
Both Techtra and HMS Software are Microsoft Gold Certified partners and recognized by Microsoft as go-to partners in their respective fields. Techtra is one of a few "Excellence Gold Partner Program members". HMS Software has been recognized as a "First to Market" partner for its work integrating TimeControl with Microsoft's Project Server.
