RIB Software SE (RIB) signs a Phase-II-contract (No. 6 / 2020) with a Leading International Robotics Company

Amsterdam, Netherlands, 19 March 2020. RIB Software SE, the world's leading provider of iTWO 5D BIM Big Data technology for the construction industry, today announced the conclusion of a Phase-II-contract with the worldwide leader of autonomous robotics for the cleaning and facility management industry.

The contract was executed through RIB's ERP division, Levtech Consulting, with the customer headquartered in Netherlands. The customer is also being enabled through a cloud deployment of business applications where RIB's cloud services arm, SAASPlaza, is provisioning the cloud applications and services, including Dynamics 365, Microsoft 365 and Azure.

With significant expansion plans underway to build a global supply chain of robotic cleaning equipment, the customer was keen to develop a digital blueprint to ensure that business processes and automation could easily scale as operations expanded. RIB delivered the digital transformation roadmap in a rapid manner and has now moved on to implementing core components of the solution model at the customer's operations in Netherlands. Next steps will include quick and effective roll outs in other geographies covering Europe, US and China, delivered through Levtech, SAASPlaza and other RIB global alliance partners.

"It is a great opportunity for us to partner in the digital transformation of a global robotics firm, aiming to revolutionize the cleaning and facility management industry. With a subscription-based model, we see this important customer as a true digital business and we look forward to deploying their core operational platform across customer engagement, supply chain, service management and financial processes. In collaboration with our network of RIB global alliance partners, we are executing a phased approach to the global roll-out of our technology, and we are already working closely with our sister company, SAASPlaza, to provision Microsoft cloud applications and services," said Anilesh Kumar, CEO, Levtech Consulting.

"We are very excited that we can support the implementation of the business process platform by not only providing them with all Azure subscriptions, but also through the close and successful collaboration with our sister company, Levtech," says Berend-Jan van Maanen, CEO of SaaSplaza. "This is a great example of the power of joining forces. We provide complementary service offerings with an overall best-fit cloud solution, guaranteeing business continuity and enabling further growth for our joint customer."
