Dear readers, Dr. Jakob Karszt

the future of eBusiness lies in collaborative product data exchange – a thesis from Poet confirmed over and over by the continuous incoming enquiries and orders.
Therefore, we have been concentrating on the question if the so far employed processes concerning catalog data exchange and product information management (PIM) are still up to date.
To us, eBusiness 2.0 contains among other things the simple and cost-effective use of a Cloud-PIM.
Read more about the advantages offered for purchasing and trading in this newsletter or simply sign up for one of our Webinars on Cloud-PIM.
It is well known that poetry is very well received by women. The high 60% rate of women working at POET Egypt has probably little to do with our poetical inclination, rather with the collaborative and exciting work environment we offer to our employees. The successful project work in the area of Nearshore was clearly confirmed by the CMMI-Certification at the end of July. Together with our Egyptian colleagues, we are pleased about this official confirmation of quality and process competency.

We hope you will enjoy reading our newsletter.

Yours sincerely, Jakob Karszt

Chairman of the Board
POET AG

How Purchasing and Trade profit from the Cloud PIM


Are conventional processes concerning catalog data exchange and product information management (PIM) still up to date according to your evaluation?
Current PIM-Systems swell up the exchange between suppliers, customers and end customers causing unnecessary costs and slowing down sales- and competition-critical time-to-market times. For this reason, POET offers you an alternative: a cloud-based PIM-Concept, which automates and simplifies the master data and product information exchange across the entire supply chain. With Cloud-PIM, suppliers, service providers, buyers and customers collaborate on a virtual system, similar to an Online-Portal solution. At the push of a button, customers will have the certified assortment goods in the desired format at their disposal. In a matter of seconds, the purchasing department obtains the certified supplier data from one source and will be able to immediately create active assortment goods for its marketing channels.
A future trend becomes reality. The POET Cloud-PIM-Solution is currently being customized for the needs of our customers in new customer’s projects for tools and agricultural business.
You will find more information on the topic Cloud-PIM here (in German).

Amenities of the Karlsruhe Technology Region – POET supports the Nerd-Zone


The IT-economy in Karlsruhe and its region is one of the biggest in the Federal Republic of Germany. As a result, the demand for professionals is high. In order to fill the gap between demand and supply the Project Nerd-Zone was initiated on the 01/09/2011. Its goal is to attract and inspire the so called „Nerds“, i.e. the most clever heads of the IT-branch, getting them involved in the Karlsruhe-based business companies – and to gain new specialists for the region.POET supports and actively engages itself in the Nerd-Zone.

POET is an authorized eCl@ss Service Provider


The long time collaboration between eCl@ss and POET is further intensified through the cooperation agreement and the authorization of POET AG as service provider. The electronic classification standard eCl@ss offers manufacturers, suppliers and traders parameters for standard description and classification of products and services. Hereby it is ensured that the contractors and customers „get together“ quickly thanks to the electronic way of communication – regardless of where the Business partner happens to be in the world.


CMMI-Certification confirms POET´s Quality und Process competence


CMMI (Capability Maturity Model Integration) deals with a reference model for the improvement of the organizations´ working method and the evaluation of the maturity grade of the process efficiency. The assignation of Levels 3 testifies the quality of the service and process competence of Poet Egypt.
More details on the CMMI-Certification can be found here.


POET Egypt: 60% are women – We do not need any Women Quota


The female quota, a concept we came across in the Media at the beginning of the year. Arguments in favour and against such a quota have been discussed sufficiently.
While other business companies are confronted with it, at Poet the female quota does not come into question at all. To this day, 60% of the employees at POET Egypt are women. At Poet Egypt, women manage most of the projects. To one male project manager correspond eight female project managers. The satisfaction of our customers and the successful project processes are proof of a good and professionally competent work, regardless of our employees’ gender.
