OTAGO to co-create the Gdańsk Education Platform

On Friday, 20 January, OTAGO IT Services Ltd., a subsidiary of the Asseco Group, concluded a contract with the Municipal Office of Gdańsk for construction of the Gdańsk Education Platform.

On Friday, 20 January, OTAGO IT Services Ltd., a subsidiary of the Asseco Group, concluded a contract with the Municipal Office of Gdańsk for construction of the Gdańsk Education Platform.

For the first time in Poland, information technology employed for education purposes covers such a wide range of functionality and is implemented on such a large scale. The Gdańsk Education Platform will facilitate communication among offices, schools, teachers, pupils and their parents, as well as it will support the management and operations of educational establishments in all teaching, administrative, and financial areas. The project worth nearly PLN 16 million will be carried out by a consortium of three companies which have been selected in a tendering procedure. Completion of the project has been scheduled for the end of January 2013.

 

Acting as a member of the consortium, OTAGO will be responsible, among others, for the delivery and implementation of an integrated IT system to support budgeting and financial management at educational institutions. The company is going to deploy its proprietary OTAGO solution based on a central database. The system will be used by both the administrating body and employees of all 191 educational establishments. The OTAGO's planning and budgetary analysis system will provide a set of innovative electronic tools to facilitate organizational and financial planning, as well as to enable gathering and analysis of the organizational and financial data. Furthermore, the system will be used to maintain the accounts and draw up budgets for all the educational institutions managed by the city.

The Municipal Office of Gdańsk has been a client of OTAGO for many years. The OTAGO system has been developed and operated at the Municipal Office since the 1990s and nowadays it supports almost all spheres of its activities. By implementing the system into further areas of city management, the Municipal Office aims towards the construction of a central municipal system, which will cover subsequent processes in the future and lay a necessary foundation for development of the envisaged common services centre.

 

OTAGO is a company responsible for coordination of the Asseco Group sales within the local government market. The company operates with a purpose to provide possibly the broadest and most comprehensive offer to that segment of the market. Last year OTAGO decided to expand its portfolio with education management software, which would be complementary to its integrated municipal management system. Hence, the company concluded an agreement to purchase an organized part of the enterprise of Cracow-based Silvermedia, embodying a number of state-of-the-art solutions designed to support management processes in education. In addition, OTAGO took over a team of highly qualified employees, including software designers, developers and implementation engineers, who were the power base for the acquired solutions.

As noted by Jarosław Jastrzębski, OTAGO's CEO, it is just owing to the takeover of a portion Silvermedia's business and incorporation of their education management tools into the company's flagship system that OTAGO was able to successfully participate in the tender for the Gdańsk Education Platform, and now can think positively about a return on this investment.
