SOA Best Practices Digest

LONDON, Sept. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SoftServe, a leading global outsourced product and application development company, today announced that the company's two entries have been shortlisted for the prestigious 2014 National Outsourcing Association (NOA) awards in the International Contract of the Year category.

The NOA is the leading association serving both outsourcing professionals and the global outsourcing industry. The first project recognized by NOA was a result of SoftServe's partnership with the Lviv City Council, Ukraine, to develop and implement an innovative WEB-oriented application for calculation, tracking and on-line payment for utility services. By centralizing utility payments billing, SoftServe increased customer satisfaction and the city utility enterprises revenues. The second project focuses on SoftServe's collaboration with Engage Global Solutions, a provider of Global Education Programs, Certification and Courseware for the IT training industry. Migrating one of their key tools to Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud Computing Platform, SoftServe delivered a solution that facilitated substantial cost reduction, full scalability and significant improvement of the security and availability of the tool.

"The outsourcing industry is going from strength to strength. Not only is it enjoying significant growth across both the public and private sectors, but its focus is changing too, to truly deliver value add beyond cost savings. This was apparent in many of these award submissions which demonstrated an increasing display of innovation and business transformation through outsourcing. It's set to be a very exciting Awards ceremony, with strong submissions from many of the industry's key providers, as well as entries from an increasing number of exciting newer players," said Kerry Hallard, National Outsourcing Association CEO.
