|
(Oslo, 26 September 2006) EDB's subsidiary Avenir has become the first company in Norway to be certificated as an EPiServer Premium Solution Partner. Gaining this status confirms that Avenir's focus on this area is delivering results. EDB, through its units Avenir in Norway and DropIT in Sweden, is one of the leading Nordic suppliers of solutions based on EPiServer. EPiServer is a content management system that makes it simple for companies and organisations to use an intranet or the internet as a quality-assured business critical information channel. A number of Norwegian companies and public sector bodies use EPiServer with solutions supplied by Avenir. Avenir achieved certification as an EPiServer Premium Solution Partner as the result of the experience gained from supplying solutions based on EPiServer over many years, and nine Avenir employees have so far attained EPiServer certification.
"Challenging standards"
"We are extremely pleased that Avenir has been appointed as an EPiServer Premier Solution Partner. The standards set for certification are very challenging, and Avenir has worked hard to achieve this recognition. EPiServer is a key product for the portal solutions we offer on Microsoft platforms. This makes it very important that we can demonstrate to our customers that we have documented expertise and knowledge in this area", explains Lars Erik Johannesen, Managing Director of Avenir.
Avenir is the first partner in Norway to be certificated at the highest level by EPiServer
EPiServer has responded to the increasing number of players seen in the market by striving to improve the professionalism of both suppliers and customers. "EPiServer fully recognises the importance of working as a driver to improve the professionalism of the content management market in Norway. We have worked hard to make sure that customers understand the two key decisions when buying a CMS solution: Which platform to use - and choosing a skilled implementation partner. We are now working to further promote the professionalisation of the CMS market through formal certification of our partners. Avenir has demonstrated a focused approach with strong expertise in EPiServer. This has led to Avenir becoming our first partner in Norway to achieve the highest level of certification as a Premium Solution Partner", comments Gĝran Hüllert of EPiServer Norway.
