Askari Bank and techlogix finalize deal to deliver multi million dollar Oracle project
Business Tech Add commentsAfter a long wait the news is finally out : Askari Bank has awarded the entire Oracle project to
techlogix for implementation and delivery. IBM has a role to play as well from what I have read, probably managing some aspects of the deployment.
The project is possibly the first of its kind, with a rollout of major Oracle apps and first example of a Bank going all out on oracle products. Rollout plans include Flexcube, Siebel CRM and Oracle financials,etc.
This also marks a switch for techlogix : one is working on a major local project (as opposed to outsourced work) and two that instead of software development, there seems to be a move towards implementation and system integration. Local demand is ofcourse higher for system integration given that most large and medium firms are over the “we’ll make our own ERP” phase and rightly so, and are moving to standard technologies and products.

Mohtashim, Techlogix is implementing iFlex and Siebel whereas IBM is implementing PeopleSoft HR and Oracle Suite. Both are backing each other as well.

I was hoping that Techlogix would keep focus on products but it seems to be satisfied with its systems integration work. I guess its less glamorous but pays the bills well.
