LANSA Named 2009 IBM Beacon Award Finalist
RAMP from LANSA Recognized in Outstanding Enterprise Application Solution by an ISV Category
Downers Grove, Ill. — June 23, 2009 — LANSA announces that it has been recognized as a 2009 IBM Beacon award finalist, making it one of three top business partners in the Outstanding Enterprise Application Solution by an ISV category. The IBM Beacon Awards, which were announced on June 9, recognize the best solutions IBM Business Partners deliver across the industry and around the world. Winners of these distinguished awards – extending across all hardware and operating platforms – set the standard for business excellence, unique and innovative solutions, ingenuity and customer satisfaction.
LANSA's application modernization solution, RAMP from LANSA, was named a 2009 Beacon Award finalist for its functionality and capabilities to extend and expand existing applications on IBM i today and long into the future. RAMP is a single, integrated modernization solution that addresses a company’s immediate- and long-term application requirements. Unlike other application modernization solutions, RAMP is a "reengineering" product that lets companies rapidly consolidate current applications into a new Web or Windows application framework and then incrementally replace legacy programs with new reengineered components – in a timeframe that makes sense to an organization. New applications can also be added seamlessly into the same application framework to work along side current applications.
"It's a great honor to be named a finalist of this prestigious award," said Steve Gapp, president of LANSA Americas. "Not only does this emphasize that LANSA is a valued partner, but it also affirms the strengths and capabilities of RAMP as a leading application modernization solution."
