The company is profitable and generates cash flows even if it is not enough.

This weakness of profitability is due to the huge investments the company has maintained on the portal web solution.

In order to stay profitable and to go on with the investments, the company has driven a cost cutting policy on the sales department.
The online sales represent now 30% of the turnover and 90% of the new business.
Lexmark, Sanofi, Andra, Loxam became clients by the e-business way.

The sales costs felt down 50% between 2000 and 2002.

We now forecast a new +15% growth in 2003 based on our portal solution and on the maturity of our offshore business unit wich is supposed to bring 60% of the growth.

Trainings' subjects turn mainly around the web or Java environment. According to the trainees' level and the trainings' duration, developers will be able to improve or to be reconverted in the web and Java environment.
The program was conceived around all web concepts, development and exploitation plat-forms, Java code in order to finalise a mini-project.

Trainings are insured by our Romanian collaborators specialized in those domains. All of them are entirely francophone and trained to the French training methods.

Besides training sessions, we will be honored to show to our trainees the charm of this Eastern European country, its famous historical attractions, its local gastronomy and culture.
Trainees can also practice winter sports: ski, sled and snow tracking around Sinaia and Poiana spas.

Those services, till now, were only linked to softwares developed by Pentalog High Tech.

As part of that strategy, the company has also decided to extend that services to third maintenance.
It is now possible for Pentalog High Tech's clients to give us the maintenance responsibility for softwares we have not performed.

The third maintenance is a two steps process :
- first a technical and functional study to define the service level and the contract definitive price.
- contract signature.
