Foster + Partners Chooses BST Global as Business Performance Management Solution Partner
Renowned UK Firm to Use Web-Based Solution to Manage Entire Project Lifecycle
TAMPA, Fla. – 4 March 2007 – BST Global today announced that UK-based Foster + Partners has chosen to partner with BST Global in its business performance management system initiative. Foster + Partners has an established international reputation with projects as diverse as the redevelopment of the Reichstag in Berlin, Hong Kong International and Beijing Airports, the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, Hearst Headquarters tower in New York, the Swiss Re tower and the Great Court at the British Museum in London. Foster + Partners also was recently selected as one of the three architectural firms to design one of the towers at the World Trade Center in New York City.
“After a thorough review of market offerings and detailed examination of leading business systems providers to professional services, we have selected BST Global’s solution for a new generation web-portal based solution spanning the whole of the project lifecycle,” said Graham Phillips, Senior Partner and Chief Executive at Foster + Partners. “We hope this will be the beginning of an enduring partnership between BST Global and Foster + Partners.”
BST Global serves project driven organisations seeking to integrate project management, client relationship management, billing, accounting and employee time and expense tracking as well as gain valuable enterprise insight through analysis capabilities. The company’s flagship product, BST Enterprise, is a portal-based solution that delivers relevant, real-time, focused information. BST Enterprise includes enterprise resource planning, client relationship management, enterprise project management, and business intelligence. Leveraging the industry’s only 100% Microsoft .NET solution, BST Enterprise is robust and scalable for larger organisations – end results for users include top line growth, improved cash flow and increased profitability.
“With its recent reorganisation into six groups, each with a diverse portfolio of project types and international responsibilities, Foster + Partners’ existing business solution was strained to meet its new structural requirements,” said Eduardo Niebles, Managing Director/Europe for BST Global. “We were able to introduce a solution that offers meaningful information management through the integration of resource, time and financial information around projects. Overall, Foster + Partners has a unique set of business processes and appreciated not only our solution approach, but our flexibility and willingness to tailor our solution to meet their distinctive needs.”
