PAR Inks Sales Pact with Spectron Business SolutionsNov 18, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- The Swedish-based European data specialist, PAR, has linked up with Spectron Business Solutions to market and sell its EuroContactPool database in Belgium. The EuroContactPool business-to-business (B2B) database covers 22 million companies and 16.4 million executives across 16 European countries. EuroContactPool forms the platform for PAR's European data quality services which enable automatic monitoring, updating, and enhancement of companies' records. The recent development of PAR Manager plug-ins for Microsoft Dynamics and SuperOffice CRM (Customer Relationship Management) systems enables data to be transferred and updated between EuroContactPool and customers' in-house databases. Spectron Business Solutions is a Belgium-based B2B data specialist, working in data delivery, data quality, data intelligence, and database management. The link with PAR will enable Spectron to offer its Belgian customers the full range of pan-European data services. Alain De Schouwer, Managing Director of Spectron Business Solutions, said, "Our focus on international data has grown significantly the last few years. We believe that in companies nowadays, international connections and co-operation have become more and more important. Therefore, an international central database such as EuroContactPool has become a 'must' for all companies with international contacts. "By using EuroContactPool data we can not only guarantee to our customers the supply of high-quality data, we can also offer a number of practical advantages, such as one start-up cost, one contact person, and one consistent format across Europe." Johan Lindqvist, Business Manager International for PAR Sweden said, "Maintaining pan-European data quality is a massive task for any organisation but the solution is not to buy from multiple vendors with multiple formats and pricing structures. The link with Spectron now provides a one-stop solution to European data quality for companies in Belgium." ((Comments on this story may be sent to [email protected])) |
