Silicon Space Joins Google Enterprise Professional Program to Launch Enterprise Search Practice

Silicon Space Inc., a leading provider of custom web-based software solutions, announced today that it has joined the Google Enterprise Professional Program and launched a new business practice focused on enterprise search solutions utilizing the Google Search Appliance. As a trained member of the Google Enterprise Professional Program, Silicon Space will create custom Google search solutions that deliver fast, intuitive access to the information buried within the enterprise.

For ten years, Silicon Space has been using the latest web technologies to create customized, integrated software solutions for large enterprises like Disney, Harcourt, the U.S. Navy and Cohn & Wolfe, an international public relations agency.

Recently, Cohn & Wolfe wanted to increase competitive advantage by making corporate information more accessible to their worldwide network of management and sales professionals. Silicon Space custom built a corporate intranet, extranet, internet portal and then installed, configured, customized and integrated the Google Search Appliance to provide fast, intuitive access to the organization's information assets located across a variety of disparate applications and data sources. "Silicon Space was instrumental in helping Cohn & Wolfe design, develop and deploy an enterprise portal to better enable our worldwide staff to win new customers and be more productive for our existing clients through a global management tool," explained Robert Walsh, CIO of Cohn & Wolfe.

"Robust, proven enterprise search solutions are becoming more critical for large enterprises as the volume of data generated by ERP, SFA, CRM and other systems increases exponentially," explained Kevin Harris, COO of Silicon Space. "Silicon Space's partnership with Google and the launch of our Enterprise Search Practice have a common goal of delivering the best technology, expertise and integration experience to our clients -- allowing them to harness the power of their enterprise information."

In addition to this new Enterprise Search Practice, Silicon Space will continue to provide web software and application development services, complete system integration solutions and outsourced product R&D services to its growing list of commercial and federal clients.

"Google is excited to have Silicon Space as a partner in the Google Enterprise Professional Program," said Kevin Smith, Partner Program Manager, Google Enterprise. "Our joint customers will now be able to receive customized, integrated enterprise Google-centric search solutions from Silicon Space."

The Google Enterprise Professional Program includes developers, consultants and independent software vendors that provide value-added services for Google enterprise products.
