"SAP EcoHub provides tremendous value in connecting constituents of the SAP ecosystem," said Stephen Kenny, president, Above Border. "The rapid pace of innovation requires ecosystems to be highly connected, allowing for co-innovation, rapid feedback and the alignment of mutual value propositions between constituents.  SAP EchoHub provides a key and fundamental platform for these activities to take place."

As an established independent software vendor offering solutions in support of SAP offerings, Above Border has made serving the needs of customers using SAP solutions a top priority. Most recently, Above Border Enterprise 1.20 earned SAP certification for integration with the Sybase® Unwired Platform 2.0 via the Sybase Unwired Platform-Mobile App 2.0 integration scenario.

Above Border Enterprise is a mobile solution integrated with the SAP mobile platform and SAP back-end solutions, enabling travel compliance and risk management for the frequent business traveler.  The mobile app sits in the background on business travelers' smartphones, periodically checking in and recording their geographic location.

Human resources and mobility departments receive real-time, accurate employee data, allowing for compliance risk mitigation and planning.

In addition, Above Border has joined the SAP PartnerEdge™ program as an SAP software solution and technology partnerA. Through the program, partners work closely with SAP to develop and certify the technical integration of their solutions with SAP software. Integrated partner applications extend, complement and add value to SAP solutions, thereby helping mutual customers more successfully meet business needs and drive strong results.
