RapidValue Services for Lotus Software

Since 1993, Davalen, as an IBM Premier Business Partner, has been assisting clients with architecture, development, administration, installation and customization for their Lotus infrastructure. Davalen provides consulting and training services for the entire family of Lotus products with a certified and experienced staff. From an early foundation in Lotus Notes and Domino, the Davalen portfolio has grown to include Lotus Connections, Lotus Traveler, Lotus Mobile Connect, Lotus Quickr, Lotus Sametime, Lotus Expeditor, Lotus XPages, WebSphere Portal and more.

Lotus Connections is the social software for businesses. It empowers business professionals to develop, nurture and remain in contact with a network of their colleagues; respond quickly to business opportunities by calling upon the expertise in their network; and discuss and refine new creative ideas with communities of coworkers, partners, and customers. Led by a Davalen Social Engineer, our implementation teams consist of business analysts and software, IT and marketing specialists. Based on best practices and previous implementations, we create a custom Lotus Connections environment that integrates with the way you do business.

Writing Lotus Notes plug-ins using Eclipse and Lotus Expeditor requires a solid understanding of many features that are new to Lotus Notes 8.5. Davalen is one of a couple IBM Partners that have deployed Lotus Expeditor plug-ins on a large scale. We understand how to write and deploy plug-ins which integrate custom live text with enterprise data. Davalen can provide turn-key plug-in development services or mentor your developers through the process.

One of the latest additions to the Domino Web developers' toolkit of technologies, IBM Lotus XPages, is also arguably its most powerful and revolutionary to date. XPages allows for functionality and capabilities previously thought impossible to achieve in Domino application development. With the inclusion of XPages, you now have the ability to easily create Web 2.0 user experiences in your existing applications. Davalen can plan and execute a strategy for moving your Domino applications to Xpages.

Looking for an experienced partner that has deployed WebSphere Portal applications in a variety of industries? Davalen provides a comprehensive set of IBM WebSphere Portal-based solutions for improving business productivity. Our solutions are tailored to your business and industry through a combination of business and technical consulting.

Once the solution has been designed, Davalen saves clients 50-70% on the development phase of the project through our expert use of IBM's rapid application development tooling: Web Experience Factory. As a recognized leader in Web Experience Factory development and mentoring, we have a track record of quickly building teams of Davalen and client developers to successfully engage on large products.

The Davalen National Technical Staffing Practice focuses primarily on providing IBM Software Services with IBM software experts they can trust to be the best and most experienced consultants available. Our elite pool of consultants are certified in all IBM software portfolios and can support almost any client request.
