RJT Compuquest® and Launchworks® Sign Strategic Partnership Through SAP® Extended Business Program

Partnership Enables Businesses to Comprehensively Create and Extend Analytic Services to Users anywhere.

Torrance, CA December 30, 2011

RJT Compuquest® and LaunchWorks® signed a strategic partnership to jointly deliver innovative SAP® BusinessObjects™ solutions. RJT Compuquest is a SAP® Master Value-Added Reseller and LaunchWorks became a member of the SAP® Extended Business program.

RJT Compuquest® has a strong record of creating and maintaining technology partnerships with mid-sized and large organizations on every SAP® BusinessObjects™ solution – Enterprise Information Management™, Enterprise Performance Management™, Business Process and Consolidation™ and Business Intelligence/Business Warehousing™. Earlier this year, RJT bolstered its SAP® BusinessObjects™ capabilities through the strategic acquisition of Kogent® Canada, a market leader in industry-focused Business Intelligence services. LaunchWorks® LaunchPortal™ is a secure external reporting portal for SAP® BusinessObjects™ implementations. The software integrates with SAP® BusinessObjects™ and leading enterprise solution providers like Microsoft SharePoint® and Salesforce.com®. Users can access the analytics data from standard web browsers on a multitude of devices and applications including the iPad/iPhone®, Blackberry® and Android® based mobile phones, or integrate the analytics data into their own reporting tools. With this strategic partnership, organizations have access to two experts who cover their Analytics requirements for the entire gamut of users. Businesses can comprehensively address their in-house SAP® BusinessObjects™ requirements with RJT Compuquest®, while seamlessly extending it outside their firewalls to external users, partners and vendors via LaunchWorks’ capabilities.

The SAP Extended Business program would enable LaunchWorks to benefit from a closer relationship with a highly successful SAP® partner and become more closely aligned with SAP®. RJT Compuquest would benefit by defining joint go-to-market strategies with a highly innovative technology company while LaunchWorks would receive exposure to RJT Compuquest’s experience in selling packaged-solutions and gets access to SAP’s ® knowledge in all areas including sales, presales, implementation and support.

Charles Wilson, Director of analytics at RJT Compuquest, said "We are excited to partner with LaunchWorks to deliver additional reporting flexibility, security, and scale to our SAP® BusinessObjects™ customers. LaunchWorks founder, Kevin McManus is well known in the SAP® BusinessObjects™ community as one of the leading innovators on the SAP® BusinessObjects™ platform. LaunchWorks solutions help RJT customers to extract additional value from their SAP® BusinessObjects™ investment, by delivering SAP® BusinessObjects™ content securely outside the firewall, within mobile, and/or web applications. Our customers appreciate the unique solution that RJT and LaunchWorks provide together."

Kevin McManus, the Founder of LaunchWorks added that, “We are very excited about the RJT Compuquest partnership. RJT has such depth and breadth of solutions expertise in the SAP® BusinessObjects™ space. As an SAP® EBP partner, they have been able to provide us new market opportunities, staffing resources, and demand generation services. By joining forces, RJT and LaunchWorks can enable complete end to end enterprise business intelligence no matter the size, scale, or organization of data. We can deliver actionable reporting and dashboards on any application, device, or network.”
