' we ' ve got a hell of a lot of experience , but now we need to make sure that experience is shared ' : karl fender , left , says the architecture firm he and nonda katsalidis founded is preparing for the next stage of growth .
according to katsalidis , a foreword by australian institute of architects ( aia ) gold medallist , peter wilson and a written contribution from renowned australian architect and fellow aia gold medallist graeme gunn am , also provided a long overdue opportunity to consider fka’s remarkable past , present , and future .
at fender katsalidis architects , they listen , think , investigate and collaborate . they seek the simple , compelling solution . their process through feasibility , design and documentation , enhanced by 3 - d ‘information rich’ virtual building environments , is acclaimed by their clients and the international design community . the practice is renowned for producing buildings which are cutting edge in design with sound functional planning . their approach has generated a high practice profile and gained many design awards . the approach , pioneered by fender katsalidis , is changing the face of construction practices . increasingly , the specific design of large components of a building can be undertaken by major subcontractors using 3d computer - based design harnessed to manufacturing processes , which in turn provides construction streamlining .
katsalidis is lower key . he appears for a photoshoot at the end of the hour - long discussion , answers a few questions quietly and disappears . but katsalidis has a business acumen and a pragmatic edge that has pushed the duo well beyond the realm of standard architecture practice .

fk ' s project architects perform senior roles on projects and are generally regarded as being on a pathway to leadership positions within the practice . they work closely with our directors and principals and have direct involvement throughout the design and delivery stages .
another year has passed for the australian national architecture awards ! established in 1981 by the australian institute of architects and as the final tier of the national competition , the annual awards attract a notable bunch of projects from all around the country and abroad .
it has just moved into a new office , taking a 1000sq m - odd floor in the 2 riverside quay building it designed for mirvac on melbourne ' s southbank ; it has designed merdeka pnb118 , a 630 - metre mixed - use tower in the malaysian capital kuala lumpur that will be the world ' s fifth - tallest building when completed in 2020 ; and it has just published fender katsalidis : working architecture , detailing its work over two decades .
“we feel incredibly honoured to have all those distinguished individuals be part of our first book and we just can’t thank them enough for their contributions and conclusions on how our practice has influenced australia’s built environments , ” says katsalidis .
“the success of the practice has been driven by the firm’s ability to move with the commercial realities of our time and by its innovative and collaborative approach to architecture through working closely with forward - thinking developers across a range of sectors , ” says katsalidis .
“we wanted to document some of the developments we have created in the last 25 years , therefore , we selected what we felt would be more architecturally appealing to our readers , ” says 66 - year - old nondas katsalidis in an interview with neos kosmos .
the pragmatic firm that has won much of its work
because other architects have failed to find solutions that deliver financial returns and win planning approvals for what are usually intractable sites
– as rmit architecture professor leon van schaik writes in a new book about fka – is going through a time of change .
good architects will go beyond the fashion parade and start thinking about the urban design issues , the community issues and bring to their project a beautiful building that satisfies the lust of the local developer but also is very responsible in the way it sits within the fabric that it ' s located in ,
he says .
it ' s ironic that the private office of the man who designed the tower looks out on to its tenth - floor plant room . but fender says the consolidation of staff onto one clear floorplate is a key part of the succession planning – a concern for any professional services firm – and will build up the sense of the practice as a team .
s p setia also has another project in melbourne , the a $ 252 million parque melbourne at st kilda road . it will offer 332 units of one - , two - and three - bedroom apartments , with an additional two open - plan penthouses , that will sit on a land area measuring 9 , 031 sq m . the parque melbourne development is also designed by fk architects .
he doesn ' t like to be referred to as ' the developer ' ,
fender says .
he ' s first and foremost an architect . that ' s the point . he ' s not a developer that happens to be an architect that does a good job . he is an architect that has found ways to bring levels of excellence to the work that he and we do .
the kuala lumpur project alongside stadium negara , site of the declaration of malaysia ' s independence in 1957 , shows how a building can help renew an entire precinct , fender says . while the building brings many new people to the area , it can also work better and be a nicer place to be as a result of improvements that accompany it , such as road upgrades and new underground railway , he says .
“my parents are both greek and i was born there so i try and visit every four to five years but if you ask me , i will tell you it’s not often enough . “my father was born in epeiros and my mother comes from corinth . after the war they both moved to athens and i was born there . my family migrated to australia in 1956 when i was five years old , therefore i do speak some greek but i wish i spoke the language better . truth is , i don’t speak it very often in australia , ” says katsalidis who doesn’t believe there is a secret to fka’s success other than working hard and producing original work .
“we started in the mid - 1990s and since then we have worked very hard and we have collected many awards and [ much ] recognition along the way for our design and innovative approach in building environments , but ultimately , it’s the people that have the final say as to whether they like what we do or not . “from our end , we have tried to stay true to our vision in creating interesting architectural work with a design that we feel fits the location and the climate of each of the projects and we are just excited that people can finally look through a book , study our products and come to their own conclusions , ” says katsalidis who despite an intense and certainly heavy schedule , still finds the time to visit his birthplace , greece .
“sometimes i feel that we live in a strange country , but truth is , we are very lucky to be in australia . in my opinion , overall , we have had more ups than downs and the australian economy has been going up since the last recession . given how popular this country is due to its location and because of asia , i feel property development and construction is already growing too fast for my liking , especially in melbourne , but what we try and always do at fka is take one step at a time , stay focused to what lays ahead of us and concentrate on delivering a great product before moving to our next venture . “in our firm we like diversity , so we make sure every product we deliver , irrespective of size and location , is unique in its design and structure . “we never rest and we ensure we never repeat ourselves , ” concludes katsalidis .

newacton east is the first completed stage of the newacton precinct in canberra . one of three new buildings proposed to be arrayed around a significant heritage building in the centre of the site , the building is a harbinger of the place - making that will be newacton : a fecund melange of living , work , recreation and creative activity : a contrast with the barrenness of much of canberra . the building is an urban marker announcing the newacton precinct . it is a sculptural addition to the skyline silhouette ; it encourages street activity through its retail , cafe and access functions permeating the ground floor . it enlivens that environment . it connects the bounding streets to the centre of the heritage precinct . commissioned art works create a seamless connection and itinerary from the new building through landscaped courts into the heritage buildings , interlacing content and creative place - making within the precinct . the building contains residential , commercial and retail uses . the residential component is thirty - two apartments , ranging in size from one bedroom through to three bedroom , and including two highly customised apartments for the building owners . the apartments are located in the top three storeys of this eight storey building , over four commercial levels and a retail / entry ground floor . the entry for the apartments is the heritage link . the link connects marcus clarke street on the east with the courtyards of the heritage building on the west . it is a space which interlaces welcome , activity and art . a seamless sweep of folded ceiling , wall and floor reveals a rusted steel wall leading
the visitor from the new in the east to the old in the west . that passage of time as well as distance is melded with warren langley’s sculptural piece interpreting the juxtaposition of built environment and landscape in canberra . graphic symbolism replacing text in the lobbies leading to apartments creates a celebration of the potentially banal identification of services risers . while the apartments represent a range of sizes and plan arrangements , they have a common thread : the dissolving of the cellular nature typical of this residential type . by integrating with visual and physical linkages the differing rooms within apartments , increased perceptual size and light infiltration is achieved . strong joinery elements in the single bed apartments articulate the functional spaces while providing spatial integration and functionality . glazed bathrooms inserted within the bedrooms of larger apartments create spaciousness . in the north - west corner of the building , with views from civic to the north to lake burley griffin , is a custom - designed apartment . a melding of simple spatial articulation with a richness of incorporated robust materials , works of art and sheer personality , the design of this apartment is a clear manifesto for a world - aware , multicultural , perceptive culture that exists in canberra . in its use of primary structure as final finish , its exploration of spatial possibilities , and its simple robust expression allied with a richness of design responses , the building represents a remarkable balance of design outcome within the context of the financial realities of building development .

richmond penthouse on street named for jack dyer roars to record price of about $ 4 . 8m
a luxury golden gate bridge - inspired hotel has been announced for the museum . it’s expected to cost $ 300 million .
expansive new plans for mona ( hobart’s museum of old and new art ) have been revealed by the museum’s multi - millionaire founder , david walsh .
hotel mona , which will be known as homo , was the centrepiece of an announcement walsh made to a tasmanian tourism industry event yesterday . the hotel will offer five - star accommodation across 172 rooms , and uses the golden gate bridge as inspiration for both the colour and unique design of the hotel . it will be on the same site as mona .
the top seven floors will be hung from a suspension bridge , and there will be a 1075 - seat theatre at its base . it will be designed so that vibrations from performances won’t affect the other levels of the hotel .
due to the scale of the proposed developments at the berriedale peninsula location , walsh has approached the state government for funding to move the museum’s on - site summer festival , mona foma , to launceston .
it will also feature “special experience” rooms , one - off suites designed by internationally renowned artists and a luxury spa treatment centre . walsh also has ambitions to plumb the entire hotel with converted waste water .
a new children’s sculpture designed by artist tom otterness will feature on the outside lawn , as will a giant spun trampoline by japanese¬ - canadian textile artist toshiko horiuchi macadam . there will also be an amphitheatre and a new stage for hosting live music .
walsh has been a long time collector of rare books , scrolls and manuscripts and a circular , three - storey library is also being constructed to house his collection for display to the public .
interstate travellers make up 74 per cent of mona’s visitors annually , alongside providing for these visitors , the hotel will have a special focus on both local and international business and conference markets ; new conference , function and retail spaces are being built .
the project is expected to take up to three years to be completed and comes with a more than $ 300 million price tag .
plans have yet to be submitted to glen orchy council , and the guardian reports walsh as saying he won’t push ahead if the local community objects to the plans .
walsh also announced other yet - to - be - approved plans , including monaco , a high - rollers - only casino , and a new tunnel and tower at mona . other planned accommodation projects include redevelopments at a marion bay homestead , where rooms can be rented for more than $ 2000 a night . at the other end of the spectrum is hobo ( hobart odour ) a caravan park at mona walsh says is being hampered by council regulations .
expansions of the existing museum have already begun . four installations by revered american light artist james turrell will be housed in the pharos tower alongside work by richard wilson , jean tinguely , charles ross and randy polumbo . these works have been scheduled to open to the public on december 22 .

the new building , which will be known as homo ( hotel at mona ) , will also house a spa treatment centre , three - level public library , restaurant and bar , auditorium , conference centre , function and retail spaces and an outdoor stage .
david walsh , founder of mona , indicated that , like the museum , some of the spaces would be subterranean . “this time , some may think it’s gotten a little out of hand – the excavation alone is more than four times the size of that for the museum - but we seem to have some support , the plans have turned out pretty well and we can’t rest on our laurels for ever . ”
when mona announced plans to build $ 200 million worth of projects including a hotel , a casino and an extension to the gallery in 2015 , walsh said the design of the hotel would make a bold statement and “shout where mona whispered . ” the mona casino , nicknamed monaco , will be designed by mexican architect javier senosiain . in a statement , mona said the casino would be a members - only poker - machine - free facility for non - tasmanians , “designed as an ‘anti - casino’” that would “act as an outlet for art and design . ”
designs for the mona hotel are yet to be submitted to the local authority , the glenorchy city council .
mona’s co - ceo mark wilsdon said , “we want to do all we can to continue to help drive the growth in interstate tourism we’ve experienced since mona opened in 2011 . ”

our office can be tricky to find . we are on the corner of mugga way , melbourne ave & tennyson cres .
the book traces the rich history of the practice through 31 key projects selected from fka’s portfolio of works and it provides a rare glimpse into the creative and innovative energy that has come to define fka as a highly awarded , multi - disciplinary international design firm whose work now influences built environment thinking across the globe .
founded on the philosophy of innovation through collaboration , fka has evolved from a melbourne - centric architectural practice to one of australia’s most ground - breaking .
constructed by fka , eureka tower’s 89th floor was certainly a fitting location for guests to reflect on the firm’s illustrious history , while catching a glimpse of its future .
the distinguished architectural author , critic and innovation professor of architecture at rmit , leon van schaik oa , gave a speech about the discoveries made in understanding the practice , which he wrote about in his revealing narrative in the book .
museum of old and new art ( mona ) founder david walsh , whose working relationship with the practice spans almost two decades , also made a rare speaking appearance .
maitiú ward , publisher of fka’s book at uro publications also addressed the audience .
with established offices also in sydney and brisbane , and an affiliate office in london , fka employs around 100 people in australia and 60 in the uk , and is growing its international influence by entering new markets including indonesia and malaysia .
a series of key high - controlled profile projects currently underway point to the journey that is to come as fka continues to shape melbourne’s city and skyline . australia 108 is under construction , as well as two 80 - storey residential buildings on queen street in melbourne’s cbd ( in collaboration with cox architecture ) .
while overseas a landmark tower by fka in kuala lumpur is set to become the world’s fifth tallest building , landmarking the city’s important stadium merdeka precinct .
fka has shaped and enhanced the quality of melbourne’s architecture and the same is often said of fka’s designs in other places such as tasmania , with the practice’s design for mona firmly placing hobart on the world stage as a global cultural destination .

– pdf2xl enterprise adds our cogniview virtual printer to your computer so you can send anything that you can print directly into pdf2xl enterprise for processing – images , web sites , proprietary software , third - party software and more .
here is the unbelievable story … last thursday ( 03 / 28 / 2008 ) a newspaper called “zimbabwe online” published an article accusing my company ( cogniview ) of helping robert mugabe , the infamous zimbabwean president , rig the zimbabwean elections .

cogniview is a leading provider of data conversion software , enabling organizational data to be used and reused in as many computerized environments as required . we believe that your data is a priceless resource and that you should not compromise the level of your professional work due to format conversion and translation difficulties .
cogniview ltd , a vendor of business data conversion products , has announced the release of eudi ( end user data integration ) , a software product designed to give information workers
easy access and retrieval to the data they need from the enterprise application to their desktop environment ,
according to company officials .
cogniview labs is very much like google labs , but instead of googlers , we have cogniviewers roaming about . all the projects here are free to download and use and some are even open source projects . we would be in your debt , if you could try them out and tell us what you think .
too often companies are stricken by the tremendous gap between the data needs and the data supply , even at the most sophisticated organizations . the data resides in the organization databases , reports or application screens , but is inaccessible to the users ,
said yinon feldheim , ceo of tel aviv - based cogniview .
every respectable party ( un , us , european ) that will want to investigate this matter will get cogniview’s full cooperation . we will give them unlimited access to our legal and financial records . we will also allow them to interview any employee in the company . heck , they can strap us all to lie - detectors – we have nothing to hide .
“we purchased the cogniview pdf2xl program a few weeks ago and are very pleased with the software . this enables us to acquire numerous bank statements from our bank each morning which are pdf files and download them to excel for accounting . without this program , we would not be able to list our daily checks for review which number about 1500 per month . ”
better yet , you might give cogniview’s cc pdf converter a spin . it’s a free ( open source ) application that enables you to create pdf documents from almost any application , working as a virtual printer like the two applications just mentioned . but here’s one big difference — cc pdf converter also allows you to easily embed a creative commons license in your pdf file .
for even more free pdf tools — mostly for windows , but some mac , linux , cross - system or web - based — see also cogniview’s mega - list : pdf editing & creation : 50 + open source / free alternatives to adobe acrobat . what it lacks in detailed description , it makes up for in the sheer number of pdf tools to explore !

about a year ago we developed an open - source pdf converter called cc pdf converter . this converter ( which is available for download for anyone that has an internet connection ) allows one to convert anything printable into pdf . it also allows adding a creative commons license as the last page of the document . and at the very end of this page there is a link to cogniview’s website .
you deserve a great software product and excellent support . at cogniview , we produce the first and deliver the second . over the years we’ve found that making sure you get the best results from our products is the best way to make you ( and us ) happy . if you have a problem or a question don’t hesitate to contact us . we provide two levels of support : free technical support and paid technical support
a day later , an email from the site zimonline alerted me that there was an article on the site that concerned cogniview . the article was even funnier than the email . at this point my respect for the zimbabwean scam - artists was at an all - time high . not only did they send me a well crafted email , they went as far as to setting up a mock newspaper and publishing an article there .
eudi is a fully - functional software windows - based program for desktop users allowing users to print the data they see on the screen by selecting the eudi virtual printer from the printer - list . the data is then captured by cogniview ' s eudi and converted to desktop analysis software . this , company officials explain ,
gives users the ability to extract and pull data from any report , spreadsheet , invoice , and other data based programs that have printable data forms .
for evaluation software subscribers only : subject to this agreement , cogniview grants you a time - limited , non - exclusive , non - sublicensable , personal and non - transferable right and license to install and use the evaluation software for the sole purpose of evaluating and examining the software . this license shall expire and be deemed terminated , null and void immediately upon the lapse of the evaluation term . the functionality of the evaluation software is limited . accordingly , you are not permitted to utilize the software for purposes other than the testing and evaluation thereof .

link to full story the article continues to claim that my company has secret ties to the israeli mossad , and that the accusations came directly from the general secretary of the mdc , zimbabwe’s largest opposition party .
before i go on with the details of the story , here’s my official response … this story is not true . in fact it could have only been more fictional if we were accused of using alien technology . here are some more facts :
we have no ties with robert mugabeâ€™s party . we have never met or dealt in any way with him or any of his people .
on wednesday , a day before the article was published , i received an email from a yahoo email address , inquiring whether my company was helping robert mugabe win the upcoming zimbabwe elections . the email was so funny , i assumed it was spam and deleted it ( not before being very impressed with how well it was tailored for my company ) .
i was contacted by a gentleman called phil matibe , a human rights activist from zimbabwe currently living in the us , who wanted to get to the bottom of this story ( i will be speaking with mr . matibe later today ) .
and then additional articles began to appear . apparently we got 3 million dollars for helping mugabe .
my guess is that the people at the mdc wanted to get the voter data in a format they could easily handle ( like excel ) and instead got it in a pdf file ( that was produced by our converter ) . they got ( justifiably ) angry and concocted a story about the israeli mossad and my company ( this part isn’t justifiable ) .
but i’m hoping it won’t come to this . this story has the potential to damage my company’s reputation as well as to seriously damage the credibility of the mdc officials who spread this lie .
one last thing : if anyone from the mdc is reading this , please check your facts and denounce these lies . they bring you no honor .

“thank you for your help and very prompt response to my question . the pdf documents , which are state and federal government documents that average 50 to 60 pages in length , are nothing but 1 huge table so it is perfect that your program can convert all pages at once in less than 1 minute . being able to convert the documents so perfectly and so quickly will probably save me an average of 20 hours per document to do what i need to do . and if you consider that i will be working with at least 2 such documents per state that is an awful lot of time . talk about increasing production and not having to worry about data entry or copying errors . i evaluated 5 programs in my search for a solution . one simply didn’t work at all ; 2 programs churned out garbage ; the fourth created a spreadsheet but it would have taken hours to get it to a truly usable state . your program not only produces a spreadsheet that is immediately usable , the addition of the pre - conversion editing capabilities guarantees a perfect result without having to make changes after the fact .

the u . s . bureau of labor statistics reports that overall national productivity dropped to 105 . 57 index points for the first quarter of 2015 . that’s a decrease of over one full point from the last quarter of 2014 .
technology and science can only do so much to improve productivity ; most of it depends on the people who drive the work in the first place . it’s comforting to remember that even before cat videos , twitter , candy crush , and other mindless distractions , people still needed motivation . i’m sure that even thomas jefferson had his days !
sometimes , all you need is the right words to get you fired up again . so in an effort to combat those frightening numbers from the labor bureau , here is some sage counsel from some of the best minds of ancient history , entertainment , and business to motivate us all to work smarter .
harold bloom is sterling professor emeritus at yale university . he has compiled a brief list of what he calls “thought productivity nuggets” from ancient history :
1 . “think not long , but do ; do not long , but think . ” - - confucius
the chinese philosopher is reputed to have taken hold of china’s vast and corrupt imperial bureaucracy and turned it into a productive civil government that inspired nations like japan and korea to emulate his reforms .
2 . “there is nothing wrong with complaining about work ; but do the work first , and then the complaints will be all the more worthy to be heeded . ” - - socrates
called “the athenian gadfly” by his contemporaries in ancient greece , socrates was a notorious sluggard who refused to serve in any government capacity or work at anything steady . he asked all the wrong questions , which eventually got him sentenced to death by the exasperated citizens of athens . but after his death , many of the practices he had questioned in government and transport were finally eliminated and more productive policies were implemented . go figure .
3 . “never hitch a pig to a plow or expect an ox to provide bacon . ” - - virgil
the ancient roman poet virgil wrote extensively about agriculture . it is said that his own estates were so well - run that he eventually gathered more wealth than the roman emperors he often wrote complimentary poems about ( he was a notable brown - noser , too ! ) .
4 . “you may catch more flies with honey than vinegar , but you’ll get them to work harder if you use a flyswatter . ” - - jerry lewis
when the frenetic comic began writing and directing his own movies in the early 1960s , he hired only the best to turn his comedic vision into reality . it soon became well known all over hollywood that he consistently demanded only the very best work from his staff - - a mediocre performance was automatic grounds for dismissal . whether you love him or loathe him , there’s no denying his movies are technically way ahead of their time .
before he became han solo , ford worked as a carpenter . and like any good carpenter - turned - movie - star , he always carefully planned out his performance before going in front of the camera - - so he’d never have to recut .
the british actress is affectionately known on the sets where she works as a thoroughbred when it comes to performance . she never lets up until she feels she has gotten the scene just right , no matter how long it takes . this attitude has made her one of the most award - winning actresses in british history .
silky sinha is a contact center marketer . she makes a hobby of collecting the pithy remarks of successful business leaders :
7 . “the longer the meeting , the less is accomplished . ” - - tim cook
cook is the ceo of apple . he never stays in a staff meeting longer than 10 minutes , and if the meeting runs longer than 20 minutes after he’s gone he asks for a memo justifying the time spent around a conference table .
8 . “i use my brain as a playground , not as a calendar . ” - - donald trump
the donald is famous among his business associates for his creative energy when it comes to productive solutions . he hires ( and fires ) secretaries to keep track of his time commitments so he can dream up the unusual strategies that have kept him one step ahead of the real estate game .
crm , contact center and astroichthiology , radio kcrm 98 . 6 on fridays and first coffee ' s album of the week recommendation pictured below :
focusing specifically on small and midsize enterprises ( smes ) , sap ag has announced that it will introduce new e - commerce and web - based capabilities to sap business one . the new functions will enable companies to
set up online stores easily and to deploy customer relationship management ( crm ) software quickly and simply via the internet ,
according to sap officials .
addressing increasing demand among smes to make e - commerce and crm core parts of their businesses , sap officials describe the new features as a way to provide a unified view of information across sales , financials , manufacturing , reporting and customer - facing activities in a single software product .
sap is acquiring the new e - commerce and crm capabilities through its recent acquisition of praxis software solutions , a privately - held software company and long - term sap business one partner based in minneapolis . the purchase gives sap the acquired technology and praxis employees to throw at the sap business one operations .
having outplayed italy , clearly the best team in the knockout phase of the tournament , for the past hour , les bleus found themselves in the precarious position of being in danger of winning . so in the fine french tradition of le grand gesture , the only activity france has always excelled in , team captain and undisputed leader zinedine zidane pulls the stupidest move in world cup history , head - butting italian player marco materazzi , getting red - carded and sent off to end a brilliant career in disgrace .
( for our american readers , this is the soccer equivalent of bill buckner ' s misplay in the 1986 world series against the mets . just as no baseball fan can hear the name of the quite good player bill buckner without thinking of that one play , now zidane ' s name will forever be associated with the single most classless , idiotic , destructive finale to the career of any world - class soccer player . fairly or - - most likely - - not , buckner was blamed for the sox not winning the series that year , much more fairly will zidane be blamed for france losing this world cup . )
okay , materazzi and zidane had been jostling and jawing with each other ( which language , one wonders idly ) a bit , but earth to zidane : this is the world cup final . someone calls your mother the easiest mark in tijuana you smile and say nothing and be sure to shake his hand after you win . burning coals on his head and all that .
but no . zidane ' s always had an , ah , anger management issue , and it became unmanaged at the worst possible time . he lost his head , last seen being rammed into materazzi ' s midsection , he ' s properly red - carded , and you could see the wind completely go out of the french sails , all momentum lost .
even the penalty kicks , usually where the azzuri lose important matches , were a formality at that point . when zidane , france ' s most trusted shot for penalty kicks , trudged off the field , quietly dropping the captain ' s armband on the ground on his way to the locker room , he had let down his team in the worst possible way , italy had won , and everyone in the stadium knew it .
( p . s . spare a thought for roger federer , first for such a rare tennis talent to come along during the sport ' s decline , and then to win wimbledon to the most perfunctory applause first coffee ' s ever heard at the all england club - - the brash punk version of john mcenroe got a warmer hand than this - - on a day when the sporting world ' s attention was riveted on the world cup . )
satuit technologies , inc . , a vendor of customer relationship management ( crm ) products for investment users , is announcing that sands capital management , llc has selected satuitcrm on - demand for its marketing , sales and client services team .
sands capital management officials said they wanted a crm system
way beyond contact management .
dana mcnamara , director of client services for sands capital management said key selection criteria leading to satuit included
an on - demand option , their simple and easy to understand interface and architecture , their ability to easily and cleanly integrate our existing data and systems and the ability to connect anywhere .
sands capital management , based in arlington , virginia , began operations in february of 1992 . the company claimed assets under management of $ 19 billion as of december 31 , 2005 . the firm sells sales force automation ( sfa ) and client relationship management ( crm ) products , focusing on the professional investment market . the company ' s satuitcrm system was designed for sale to asset management and hedge fund companies .
eudi can extract any data available through the use of the virtual printer and export that data to popular programs , including ms excel , ms word and the clipboard .
until now , the common solution was the deployment of data conversion projects . and often those projects just address a fraction of the problem and come with a prohibitive price tag for long - term usage ,
noted feldheim .
thinking about it some more , how incredibly selfish of zidane . psychologists say suicide is the most selfish act a person can commit , and zidane ' s choice to commit hari - kiri not only doomed his team , but robbed italy as well , since this final will be remembered primarily for a french butthead ' s head - butt instead of as the crowning game in italy ' s masterful tournament performance . adieu et le bon riddance , zidane .
