The Momentum products include OPEN/DB-Jacana-Valet for report writing, JacanaForms for electronic form delivery and ValetMiner for report mining. 

David Murphy, Primur's Director comments, "Our clients are faced with a wide range of challenges relating to retrieval, presentation and delivery of information from their systems. Momentum's proven reporting and e-form applications address many of our customer's requirements in these areas. Potentially they offer some significant productivity and cost saving gains through tackling reporting backlogs and replacement of pre-printed stationery. In addition, the Momentum products provide e-business support features for HTML and PDF output together with interface capabilities for email and fax systems that some of our customers will find extremely useful. 

Our clients represent a broad spectrum of manufacturing organisations using a range of applications such as JDE, BPCS, Movex, MAPICS/XA, PRMS and PRISM. The advantage of Momentum's solutions is that they will work with all these mid range manufacturing and distribution applications and indeed any application running on the AS/400 or iSeries. We can therefore bring the benefits of the Momentum product range to all our clients. This is an exciting opportunity and we are looking forward to working with Momentum." 

Frank Tidswell, General Manager Asia Pacific and Alliances at Momentum remarks, "There is a great deal of synergy between our organisations. Primur have a client base that is looking for improved reporting and e-forms output to extend and enhance their investment in their existing business applications. Momentum has the products to tackle those requirements. What's more, we are also ideally located to support Primur with our main offices just a 15 minute drive apart! The ingredients are all there for a successful partnership."
