Overview

In 1998 we carried out our first Smallworld technology based project in the field of GIS. We worked on the development of applications for network infrastructure management, modification of existing application and service of extensive system applications (support, bug-fixing and workaround services).

In 2002 we established cooperation with GE Network Solutions, a member of the General Electric corporation - the owner and the producer of the GE Smallworld GIS technology. In 2003 we signed the "Master Service Agreement" long-term framework agreement with GE Energy for providing services related to the realisation of IT projects involving the GE Smallworld GIS technology.

In 2005 ASTEC became a member of the Smallworld User Group (SWUG) — the Smallworld users organization. The membership in SWUG proves appreciation of our experience and competences in providing qualified GIS solutions based on GE Smallworld GIS technology. In 2005 ASTEC took part in the SWUG conference and the exhibition in Kiel/Germany, and in 2006 ASTEC took part in the next SWUG conference in Dresden/Germany. At the conference there was a world premiere of the latest ASTEC product — Magik Development Tools, a modern integrated environment for Smallworld GIS programmers.

In December 2006 we took another step forward as ASTEC became an authorized partner of GE Energy and we attained an authorized Solution Partner status in the GE Energy Solution Partner Program. The participation in this partner program provides ASTEC with new development possibilities in the field of the GE Smallworld GIS technology.
