Goepel Electronic has signed an extensive co-operation contract with TietoEnator, one of the biggest providers of IT services.

The agreement's core piece is co-operation in JTAG/boundary scan solutions for testing and programming complex assemblies.

This partnership provides the electronics industry with comprehensive test opportunities that result in significant cost savings and development cycle reductions.

At the Embedded World in Nuremberg, Germany (13th to 15th February 2007), both companies will present the results of this co-operation to a global audience for the first time.

Goepel Electronic's new JTAG/Boundary Scan Alliance Member TietoEnator will be able to offer existing and future customers a wide range of new services: as a design house for hardware and software modules the Scandinavian R and D expert will provide extensive testing knowhow with special focus on boundary scan.

This includes consulting services, test development and project management.

Additionally, TietoEnator is now a value added reseller and system integrator for Goepel Electronic's solutions.

The co-operation will help Goepel Electronic to achieve an even stronger market penetration leveraging the revolutionary VarioCore technology.

Within the frame of the agreement TietoEnator will provide its expertise for product developments also for Goepel Electronic customers.

"We are glad about this co-operation", says Dr Ciwan Gouma, Vice President R and D Services and Integration for TietoEnator.

"Now we are able to offer the JTAG/boundary scan methodology to all existing and potential customers".

"This extraordinary technology paired with Goepel Electronic's long experiences can now be put on an even wider basis".

"For research and development it means that companies may reduce their costs and improve the quality of their products in development and production".

"The agreement with TietoEnator, one of the biggest IT service providers, allows us to concentrate on our core competence - further developments in one of the most effective test technologies for electronic assemblies", adds Thomas Wenzel, Goepel Electronic's Managing Director Boundary Scan.

"Both companies will learn from each other".

"In particular, the market feedback will be extremely important for further developments of products and solutions".
