MOSCOW, July 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
IBS IT Services ("IBS"), a subsidiary of IBS Group, announces completion of two major projects that include deployment of an integrated budgeting system across subsidiary offices of Polyus Gold, and development of a system of websites for Russia's statistical agency, Rosstat.
In June 2011, IBS completed the first stage of an integrated budgeting system for Polyus Gold, Russia's leading gold producer and one of the world's largest gold mining companies, with market capitalization of about US$12 billion and 2010 revenues of US$1.75 billion.
Polyus Gold's cross-border production management required the development of an integrated budgeting system, and IBS was engaged to implement a solution based on IBM Cognus TM1 after competitive bidding process. As part of the project, IBS built a standard budgeting model for a mining enterprise and a model to consolidate budgetary data at the corporate headquarters level.
Also in June 2011, IBS developed a system of websites for Rosstat, a federal executive agency responsible for collecting, processing, and publishing official statistics on social, economic, demographic, environmental, and other developments in Russia.
In order to expand the capabilities of Rosstat's website, IBS upgraded the hardware and software platforms including a migration to IBM WebSphere Portal Server 6.1. The existing software and contents were ported to new more powerful hardware. This provided for improved website processing and search times, a launch of value-added services and applications, and an overall enhancement of user interface.
