Peacock Engineering and Syclo Partner to Offer Mobile Solutions for Asset Management

Peacock Engineering?s Team Includes Business Analysts Certified on Syclo?s Agentry Mobile Development Platform

Fetcham Surrey, United Kingdom and Hoffman Estates, Ill., 17 July 2006 – Syclo today announced a strategic partnership with UK-based Peacock Engineering to deliver mobile solutions for field service and asset management organizations across the EMEA region.  Peacock will leverage its domain expertise in enterprise asset management (EAM) and CMMS systems and utilize Syclo?s Agentry mobile framework to design, develop and deploy mobile applications that will improve workflow efficiency, lower operating costs and extend asset life.

"Syclo offered the ideal opportunity to train our business analysts on a proven mobile solution," said Michael Knapp, Director of Peacock Engineering.  "Their Agentry solution made it easy for our team members to become mobile experts in less than a week.  With Agentry, technical complexities are handled by the underlying software, so my team need only focus on the business rules and achieving the workflow that will drive real value for our customers."

Peacock Engineering has already implemented a mobile solution for a customer in Equatorial Guinea, Africa using Agentry.  Peacock deployed a mobile solution for an asset management team for a major gas production plant.  The mobile application, which is remotely supported from 3600 miles away using remote access tools, allows skilled maintenance workers to electronically capture accurate data at the point of performance and access critical asset information in real-time to improve troubleshooting.

"Our partnership with Peacock will extend Syclo?s reach in the European, Middle Eastern and Asian markets," said Marc Chesover, Syclo?s Director of Sales and Operations for EMEA and AP.  "Their in-depth expertise in asset management solutions combined with their certified training in developing mobile solutions using our Agentry development platform, ensures customers that they are working with a company that understands their business needs and can create mobile solutions that meet their objectives."

Deployed at more than 600 organizations worldwide, Agentry is a proven platform that has been recognized by industry analysts as being a leading multi-channel application gateway that can be used to deploy a wide range of mobile solutions.   Agentry's core strength is its ability to lower the total cost of ownership (TCO) of mobile applications by enabling developers to rapidly build, deploy and maintain mobile applications while minimizing code writing using an advanced 4GL (fourth-generation language) Editor.   In addition, Agentry's ability to create a single application and deploy on multiple devices utilizing a variety of communications and network connectivity methods, ensures customers can deploy future-proof mobile solutions that meet their ever-changing needs.

"As demonstrated by our partnership with Peacock, Agentry solves a common challenge in the software development world ? bridging the disconnect between the business unit and the IT programmer," Chesover continued.   "Agentry?s Editor eliminates the need for hard-core c++ programmers to implement customized mobile solutions.  Instead, Peacock Engineering?s business analysts, who have a firm understanding of the business challenge faced by their customers, can both observe the business requirements and build them into the mobile solution."
