Demands concerning such solutions

• … by our users: • Support for different hardware

(Mobile devices for park inspection, mounted devices for trucks)

• Support for different user groups, all with specific demands

(Garbage Collection needs other applications than the Winter Road Clearance)

• Mobile devices are most time employed in the field, high reliability & availability

• User prefers standards instead of proprietary solutions

• … by us: • Modular concept required to be able to easy deliver customer-tailored software

• Reuse of modules in order to minimize development efforts and thus the retail

price

• Usage of existing software parts instead of self implementation, wherever

suitable
