Glomaris OI - the idea behind the open platform of Glomaris
The idea behind the new Glomaris OI platform, is to accommodate an even wider range of shipping companies - namely the shipping companies, for whom the Microsoft NAV platform do not comply with the company’s IT strategy or due to other considerations.
In relation to Glomaris NAV, the NAV platform from Microsoft is a combination of 2 elements:
- a development platform.
- an application that consists of a basic functionality, e.g. handles users, access rights, etc. and then possible access to a wide range of sub-applications, such as accounting, sales, inventory, etc.
Several shipping companies using Glomaris NAV have separate accounting system - among other things for group accounting, etc. still experience Glomaris NAV as a complementary solution. On the operational side, they are enabled to handle the detailed accounting arising from the daily shipping operations directly in Glomaris NAV, resulting in 100% real time information for the business operation.. At the same time they gain access to generic functions that are used by thousands of other companies worldwide and a user interface that can be recognize by many from their use of other Microsoft-based systems. The financial figures that are relevant to transfer to the corporate accounting system are then being transferred automatically by the scheduled intervals.
But there may be companies, which have some special requirements for their IT platform that means that the NAV platform does not match.
So to ensure that these companies still can benefit from Glomaris’ many years of experience in developing business solutions for shipping companies and other services, we have decided to develop a shipping solution that does not have an integrated accounting system, but instead develops standardized integration solutions for relevant accounting systems, such as e.g. SAP, Oracle, etc. Hence the name Glomaris OI for which OI stands for Open Integration.

Glomaris OI Roadmap
Below is the Glomaris OI product roadmap - an overall picture of the plans for Glomaris OI, and the security of further future development of the product.
As the roadmap shows, we are currently planning and working on four waves towards 2012 and beyond. Each of these will contain different elements, including improvements and fixes in the existing functionalities, technical upgrades and completely new functionalities. But as can been seen on the illustration each wave has it’s own focus area.
The integration to other system i.e. other accounting systems, will be done parallel with the Glomaris OI roadmap, and aligned to the marked needs.
Below is the high level product plan for Glomaris OI and what we are working on, on a continuously basis. Changes to the roadmap will naturally occur, this can either be based on the Glomaris product board decisions, or on input from Customers and the marked in general, or due to technical changes, etc. Changes to the roadmap will be announced in due time.
