Tampa, Florida – 1 March 2011 – BST Global, the leading global provider of enterprise business management software solutions for architecture, consulting engineering, and environmental consultancies, today announced the introduction of BST Enterprise for Outlook® and BST Enterprise Mobile.
BST Enterprise for Outlook® represents the world's first business management software 100% based in Microsoft Outlook® specifically designed for architecture, consulting engineering, and environmental consultancies. Furthermore, BST Enterprise Mobile is the first timesheet solution for Smartphones for architecture, consulting engineering, and environmental consultancies as well.
"We have worked with our clients representing over 95,000 architects and engineers globally and other industry leaders over the last three years with a simple objective. How can we make them more efficient and profitable?" said Javier A. Baldor, Executive Vice President, BST Global. "What we learned was that professionals use common productivity tools like Microsoft Outlook®, Excel, Smartphones and business management software systems every day. The problem is that these systems did not integrate with one another and professionals had to constantly rekey data making them very inefficient, frustrated and adversely impacting a firm's utilization and resulting profitability."
Mr. Baldor adds, "Now, with BST Enterprise for Outlook® and BST Enterprise Mobile we have innovatively solved this challenge with a unique solution that drives significant efficiencies, increases utilization and profitability for our clients."
BST Enterprise for Outlook® enables BST Global's business management software solution to reside completely within the world's premier email management software, used by more than 500 million Microsoft Office users.
BST Enterprise Mobile targets an emerging mobile workforce where Smartphones now account for nearly a third of mobile devices in the U.S. and Nielsen estimates that percentage will reach 50% by the end of 20111.
BST Enterprise for Outlook® and BST Enterprise Mobile will deliver:
- The ability for professionals to reside 100% within Microsoft Outlook® for all of their business management software processes, information and office productivity needs.
- The capability for professionals to seamlessly integrate BST Enterprise with Microsoft Outlook® Contacts and Calendars, streamlining client relationship and timesheet entry processes.
- The ability for professionals to enter their time on the go from anywhere in the world on their Smartphone increasing their productivity and utilization along the way.
