eSipo Technology, a Mexican developer of i5/OS-based ERP applications, has tapped LANSA and its RAMP suite of tools to help it modernize its 5250 applications.

eSipo Technology, which is based in Monterrey, Mexico, develops a suite of business applications called eSipo Logistic that is aimed at meeting the warehousing, logistics, and distribution needs of manufacturers and other companies. Some of the companies using eSipo Logistics include Logisti, Grupo Onest, Best Logistics Group (BLG), Oko, Ferraro de Mexico, and Grisi Hermanos.

Eduardo Esquivel, president of eSipo Technology, says his customers have grown tired of the green screen. "The main motive behind modernizing eSipo Logistic was due to our customers' desire for 'friendlier' screens," he says. "They believed that 5250 emulation was becoming obsolete. Furthermore, they wanted a simpler navigation, without having to go through various levels of screens."

The modernization project began in of November and is expected to be completed by the end of January 2008, according to LANSA.
