IBM Develops New Enterprise Integration Platform for MITAS


PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC - 10 Nov 2008: IBM (NYSE: IBM) and MITAS, one of Europe's largest tire manufacturing companies, today announced an agreement under which IBM will create a new enterprise integration platform based on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) for MITAS.

The new platform will enable integration of SAP ERP 6.0 system and other enterprise applications. It will also significantly streamline application alignment and management, shortening time necessary for change deployment. Other benefits of the new platform at MITAS include cost savings through more efficient system administration. The contract was signed in September 2008.

This agreement follows a successful cooperation between IBM and MITAS earlier this year when IBM and its subcontractor, Inter-Informatics, implemented a new electronic information application called the Tire Information System (TIS) for MITAS. The IBM solution, implemented in the first half of 2008, is an integral part of the production of MITAS off-road tire production, supporting the tire development lifecycle, processing data on utilized materials and generating workflows for specific machines and activities.
