A small selection from our portfolio
Examples of developing custom software where we’ve been involved from day one.
Software that’s easy to maintain and improve, keeping abreast of changing requirements and new technology.
ABN AMRO
In this digital age it’s surprising to remember that many company transactions are still dependent on having the correct signatures on agreements. This results in a lot of administration within banks and other international organizations. After ABN AMRO approached BSL with this problem, we created a custom-made software solution: ABN AMRO SRS. An easy-to-use and secure system used by ABN AMRO bank managers to manage signatures and Powers of Attorney worldwide.
PricewaterhouseCoopers
Pulse is a custom news- and alert service, designed and developed by BSL using Oracle™ and Exalead. Pulse indexes tens of thousands of premium articles (from services such as Factiva, Gartner, Forrester, IDC…) received each day, in real-time. It provides PwC professionals working throughout Europe with thousands of profiled news feeds. Not only via the company website, but via e-mail and their smartphones. By automatically selecting the best content, Pulse keeps PwC consultants up-to-date with the latest business developments.
NBD Biblion
With hundreds of new books and media titles published each week, NBD Biblion has their hands full. Reviewing, cataloguing and describing every new title as soon as possible. Providing libraries and schools throughout the Netherlands with recommendations, and delivering thousands of new books each week. BSL created a complete ‘Media Production System’ (MIPS) for NBD, based on a central Oracle™ database. MIPS imports and enriches content from OCLC and the Centraal Boekenhuis. It manages the workflow and production process, as well as their multimedia content. A great example of a unique solution created by our developers.
TMG - Vrouw.nl
The digital platform vrouw.nl aims to be the platform for the modern Dutch woman. During the project two of our Drupal CMS specialists helped create this modern high-performance TMG website – as well as the more recent Telesport project. Working as part of a SCRUM team, they designed many of the Drupal modules used within the site. They created links to the Mediahuis (formerly TMG) editorial systems, and developed the site in a series of two-weekly scrums based on the product backlog. In just three months we delivered a responsive high-traffic website, that can be used from almost any browser.
