The city of Munich will be going with Kolab Enterprise for its city wide
infrastructure. Kolab was chosen in a long and thorough tendering process,
with Kolab Systems' partner ESG making the winning bid as general contractor
for integration, migration and services. Kolab Systems is excited about the
chance to show the full potential of Kolab across a large and heterogeneous
environment making use of the Kolab client for Linux and Windows in
combination with the web client and mobile devices.

Furstenfeldbruck, 25 February 2014

ESG Elektroniksystem- und Logistik-GmbH has been assigned the role of general
contractor by the City of Munich to integrate and supervise the new groupware
system for its municipal departments and municipally-owned companies.
The Kolab groupware solution from Kolab Systems AG in Switzerland, originally
developed for the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), will be
employed as part of the MigMak project (migration mail and calendar system).
Decisive factors in the winning bid included technical aspects as well as
comprehensive support for the IT security concept of the City of Munich. Thus,
the Kolab Desktop Client in combination with the Kolab web Client based on
Kolab Enterprise 13 both on more than 14,000 LiMux PC as well as on the
remaining Windows devices will be used. A further aspect is that the solution
is to be provided as completely open-source technology, including the
necessary professional support.

Conversion and migration will be supported by a customised training concept
including a web-based training module that will be developed and implemented
by szenaris GmbH in Bremen.

As general contractor, ESG is responsible for the success of the entire
project and will also ensure smooth implementation of the following service
components:

* System specification

* A migration and integration concept to transfer the desired data from the
old systems to the new groupware solution and to connect third party systems.

* Installation, configuration, migration, testing and commissioning of the
software according to the migration and integration concept

* Related consultancy services
