Javna, the leading Arab firm in the field of software solutions and wireless
applications, has completed building the first Wireless Messaging Platform of
its kind in the region for the benefit of the Qatari Ministry of Foreign
Affairs.
Over the past months, Javna has employed its wireless technologies and expertise
to provide the ministry with five smart messaging services aimed at better
serving the ministry clients and allowing them to use the automated instant
inquiry service via their cellular phones.
Javna's CEO Mansour Mansour said the Wireless Messaging Platform would provide
the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs the infrastructure needed to communicate
with its employees via the Short Message Service (SMS) without any hurdles
related to place or time. He added that the ministry will also connect with
Qatari embassies and consulates on its private and secure network that employs
the highest level of security and confidentiality standards.
'The ministry's employees will be able, for the first time, to exchange short
messages and send data and information from within Qatar or abroad using their
cellular phones at no cost', Mansour said.
In addition, this smart system, Mansour remarked, is able to identify the party
or department intended to receive the message, adding that the content of these
messages can be derived automatically from the ministry's various databases so
that they reach their exact destination.
For example, he explained, the system can notify employees that their salaries
have been deposited in their accounts, and indicate the exact sum for each
employee. Staff members can also inquire about their account of leaves and
receive a response instantly.

For his part, Business Development Manager at Javna-Qatar Mahmoud Al-Suwaid said
the wireless system consists of five major applications, the first of which is
Epicenter-DAC application, which identifies Bulk SMS and schedules these
messages (day and hour) to be sent electronically to the ministry's employees.
It is worth noting that the system can derive the content of these messages
electronically from the ministry's databases according to their recipients.
The second application, the Epicenter-Enterprise, allows the ministry's
employees to exchange short messages, files and data through their private
wireless system.
The third application, 2Way SMS, allows the ministry clients to inquire in an
automated and instant manner via the SMS about their cases or any service
offered by the ministry.
In order to achieve further productivity and dynamism, Al-Suwaid said 'HR-Mobile
application has been included to help the ministry employees communicate via the
SMS from inside Qatar or abroad with the ministry's various departments to
obtain information related to their records such as remaining annual leaves.'
Last but not least, the Messaging Platform included the Email to SMS
application, which is designed to keep employees always connected to their
MS-Outlook and notified of incoming emails by receiving their content via the
SMS.
