IBM Scores SOA Deals With Lawson, Fireman's Fund
Overview Fireman's Fund Insurance Co., based in Novato, Calif., has awarded IBM a $94 million, 10-year contract to modernize its IT application development and maintenance operations into an on-demand infrastructure aimed at reducing the total number of applications it runs by 70 percent. Lawson Software Inc. says it will base its ERP (enterprise resource planning) applications, including financial, supply chain management, human resources, enterprise performance management and procurement, on IBM middleware. By the first half of 2006, Lawson intends to ship versions of these applications that include components of IBM's DB2 Database, the WebSphere Internet portal technology, Tivoli middleware and Rational application development components. Lawson decided to work with IBM middleware as the lower-cost and faster way to modernize its applications to work in an SOA.
