IBA Group, a Global IT Service Provider of 2,500 IT And Business Professionals, Established an Office in Astana, the Capital of Kazakhstan
PRAGUE, Czech Republic, July 26, 2010 - On July 1, 2010, a representative office of IBA Group in the Republic of
Kazakhstan was legally registered. Kazakhstan became the eighth country in
the world where IBA Group has a permanent presence.
Since 1996, IBA Group has been working in Kazakhstan and other countries
of Central Asia on major long-term projects. The IBA's clients in the region
include the railways of Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan; the
Ministry of State Revenues of Kazakhstan; and a Kazakh oil refinery.
The second largest country in the Commonwealth of Independent States
(CIS) and ninth in the world, the Republic of Kazakhstan is a leading
consumer of software and IT services. In 2009, the IBA exports to this
country amounted to US$0.7million. Currently, the cooperation is being
intensified on an extended scale.
In June 2010, IBA was selected the developer of an electronic workflow
(EW) system for the state governing bodies of Kazakhstan.
In addition, IBA is developing an automated management system for the
Kazakh Railways. The system is designed to automate business processes and
support management decisions in cargo transportation. The project scope is
comparable with a nationwide program intended for a global IT giant and is
planned to span up to three years.
According to Sergei Levteev, IBA Group President, "the company's growth
strategy is guided by the requirement to be closer to customers to serve them
in the best possible way. As IBA is implementing several large-scale projects
in Kazakhstan, the company management made a decision to invest in the
opening of a new office. We also view Kazakhstan as a promising destination
because all of its branches and entities, including government bodies, public
organizations, and private enterprises are in need of IT solutions and IBA is
ideally positioned to meet the demand".
