CollabNet TeamForge Agile ALM Platform Selected by China-Based eBaoTech to Standardize Software Development and Delivery for Global Insurance Clients

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – CollabNet®, a provider of cloud-based Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) solutions for agile software delivery at scale, announced that eBaoTech (www.ebaotech.com), a leading software provider for the life and property & casualty insurance industry, has selected its TeamForge® ALM platform to standardize all of its global software development and delivery practices. After an extensive review process, eBaoTech chose TeamForge because it combines the flexibility and collaboration developers need to be productive and innovative together with the enterprise-level visibility and compliance required within the complex insurance industry.

“The TeamForge platform embraces the reality of today’s software environment, where a multitude of processes and tools are being used for the benefit of the business, yet a standards-based approach is still required,” said Jeff Mo, vice president of information technology for eBaoTech. “We wanted to standardize all of our teams, partners and projects onto a single platform and TeamForge provides the collaborative environment we need to ensure our clients receive the highest quality software in the industry.”

CollabNet provides software organizations with a practical approach for embracing the growing complexity of software delivery. Its TeamForge ALM platform synchronizes and connects multiple processes, commercial and open source tools, and deployment applications through a flexible, hybrid model of both cloud and on-premise deployments. CloudForge® lets developers build websites and mobile/cloud/web applications, and rapidly prototype and deploy business software in the cloud quickly with best-of-breed tools. CollabNet’s global services team provides public and private training courses focused on accelerated Agile success, and it has more Certified Scrum Trainers than any other organization in the industry.

eBaoTech joins a growing list of CollabNet customers that are standardizing and coordinating increasingly complex development and deployment environments with TeamForge. It selected TeamForge to increase its agility and speed time-to-market of new software solutions that help leading insurers automate processes that result in improved customer service and business performance. eBaoTech, one of China’s largest independent software vendors, is replacing its legacy platform after an extensive evaluation of alternative solutions.

“eBaoTech represents a growing number of companies that are embracing change within the software organization by standardizing its people, processes and tools around the notion of flexibility and collaboration,” said David Parker, vice president and general manager for the APAC region for CollabNet. “We look forward to working closely with eBaoTech as they deploy TeamForge across the enterprise to streamline the development and delivery process.”
