The highlights of 2003 at Altoros

Chicopee, MA—On December 1, 2003, Altoros opened a new office in Chicopee, MA. The main focus of the new facility is providing industry-specific application development and outsourcing services for the finance, insurance, and healthcare industries.

According to Renat Khasanshyn, Sr. Account Executive at Altoros, businesses have not been well served by the industry-specific outsourcing companies. Many of today’s e-business solutions are weak and expensive, with limited functionality and connectivity to core business data. Altoros intends to address this issue by providing financial services, insurance, and healthcare organizations with high-quality applications at a great value. In order to reduce total cost of ownership, Altoros can outsource project development at client facility (on-site), at our US office (off-site), or outsource offshore at Altoros’s development facilities in Minsk (Belarus) and Russia.

“To meet individual client needs, we recommend to use one, two, or even three of these outsourcing options to obtain quality, flexibility, and rapid time-to-market solutions. We want our clients to concentrate on their core business: compete, win, and grow.”

A real-estate software development contract with AULODEK

Tampa, Florida—On May 9, 2003, Altoros signed a software development contract with AULODEK, a major real-estate consulting and e-business company based in France. AULODEK offers to corporate real-estate customers and private investors an opportunity to successfully invest in commercial and residential e-business on major European markets and worldwide.

Altoros has been hired to help AULODEK with their information technology development initiatives. One of the key objectives of the engagement is to develop an e-commerce solution for AULODEK. Due to the rapid growth of AULODEK, achieved in part through acquisitions, there has been a proliferation of different business systems throughout the company.

The mission of Altoros is to establish and develop B2C portal and reach the business goals, deliver faster service, increase customer satisfaction, and better profitability. Altoros will help AULODEK to develop a solid web presence, giving a consistent corporate image for its new venture. Future plans call for developing e-commerce and customer service functionality on-site.

“We are thrilled that AULODEK has selected us as their IT outsourcing partner. We look forward to help them with IT and e-business development initiatives leveraging our expertise and innovative approach in software and web development for the Real Estate industry and new analytic business models. We hope to be able to make a key difference to their business.” —Renat Khasanshyn, Altoros
