Hyderabad: Satyam Computer Services, a Hyderabad based IT services provider, has announced that it has been awarded a major contract from Ireland's Further Education Training and Awards Council (FETAC). 
According to the new understanding signed, Satyam will drive implementation of business process management (BPM) solutions for FETAC's core business processes.
The company will use 'Teamworks', a BPM suite developed by Lombardi, a U.S. based provider of business process management software, to roll out a multi-tiered solution, which includes process management, business intelligence and document management along with enhanced security and integration frameworks. 
The solution will enable automation of many processes and provide FETAC with enhanced process visibility and performance, stronger collaboration with business stakeholders, and reduced service cycle times. 
"This win is a testament to Satyam's commitment to providing a solutions-based consultative approach for our European customers. This approach has been a key to our success in expanding our presence in Europe," said Dr Keshab Panda, Director and Head of Satyam's European Operations, in a statement.
According to another statement from the company, it has roped up with Greenplum, a provider of database software for business intelligence. 
 
With this partnership the company expects to combine its reach and expertise in delivering business intelligence (BI) solutions with Greenplum's innovative database software. Satyam is expecting to build a dedicated practice around Greenplum's technology that includes integration of Greenplum database into iDecisions for revenue intelligence and assurance for the telecom industry. 
Satyam's iDecisions is a technology framework to help telecom companies effectively identify and plug revenue leakage. It will also resell and provide implementation and support services for the Sun Data Warehouse Appliance powered on Greenplum. The Sun Data Warehouse Appliance integrates Greenplum's parallel database with general-purpose servers and storage from Sun.
