Mainz-Kastel, April 6, 2009 - The electronic tendering solution "eVergabe 4" by Healy Hudson has successfully passed the "Microsoft Platform Test for Hosted Solutions". Thus the Hessian software service provider, who has already won several prizes, has successfully confirmed its status as a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for another year. The test, carried out by an independent institution on behalf of Microsoft, checks products that are hosted on Microsoft servers regarding their compatibility and reliability.

The tested product "eVergabe 4" enables contracting authorities of the public sector to carry out tenders according to the German contract award rules VOL, VOB and VOF and supports them step by step in this process. To use the solution hosted on Microsoft servers, only a standard PC and an Internet browser are required, the installation of files is not necessary. The highlights are, among other things, the support of regionally distributed administration structures as well as the individually configurable criteria catalogs.

"eVergabe 4" is a completely workflow-based electronic tendering solution, with which the entire tendering process can be seamlessly realized according to the relevant contract award rules, including the EU procedure. The platform is designed as a web-based solution and can be accessed by the contracting authority as well as by the potential bidders. The relevant publication bodies are already connected.

Microsoft sets high standards for its Gold Certified Partners, which can only be fulfilled with comprehensive qualifications and all-round professional knowledge. Therefore Healy Hudson is particularly proud of having successfully demonstrated the function of the software for Windows Server as well as for SQL Server 2005. Besides the Microsoft specializations "Service Oriented Architecture and Business Processes" and "Data Management Solutions", Healy Hudson has also earned the competencies "ISV/Software Solution" and "Business Intelligence". As a consequence, all the company's customers will also profit from this certification, as they can continue to rely on quality proved and efficient software - just as they have been used to it for more than ten years.
