Nexaweb Technologies, Inc., a provider of a standards-based platform for building and deploying Enterprise Web 2.0 (EW2.0) applications, has announced that the SBE Group, a global electronics service and logistics management provider headquartered in France, has successfully deployed its new centralized IT system (Artemis) based on Nexaweb’s Enterprise Web 2.0 Platform.

Originating from a former subsidiary of a telecommunications group, SBE was created in April 1987. From inception, the company has capitalized on its expertise in electronics to provide major telecommunications manufacturers and network operators with maintenance services. Today, SBE has subsidiaries throughout Europe and continues to grow at a fast pace, servicing more than 20,000 products per month.

The Nexaweb Enterprise Web 2.0 Platform has enabled SBE to migrate many of its traditional client/server logistics, maintenance, and retail store applications to browser-based, Enterprise Web 2.0 applications that provide real-time data access to end users, employees, and partners around the world while reducing management, maintenance, and operational costs. Some of the Artemis-based applications SBE has modernized include:

• PSMobile: An application that provides partners an online repair guide and enables them to schedule device repairs with SBE headquarters
• ECRM: A Call Center application that gives customer service representatives real-time information about the status of device repair and approximate completion
• Demarq: A device maintenance and logistics application that gives users a real-time view of inventory and allows them to quickly add or remove devices, manage descriptions, and more
