COVANSYS UNVEILS CITICORP DINERS CLUB ENHANCED WEB SITES

New Sites Provide a Dynamic Web Experience to U.S. and Canadian Customers


FARMINGTON HILLS, MI (March 18, 2002) - Covansys Corporation (Nasdaq: CVNS), a global consulting and technology services company, announced today the successful launch of completely redesigned Web sites for Citicorp Diners Club International, Ltd. Covansys was tapped to implement core infrastructure changes designed to improve the experience of Web-based customers using the Diners Club U. S. (www.dinersclubus.com) and Canadian (www.dinersclubcanada.com) Web sites.

The new Java and XML-based architecture provides a highly dynamic Web presence that enables the Diners Club business users to publish content directly to the Web, target promotions to specific constituencies and manage customer touch-points through an e-mail management application.

Improved site navigation tools place corporate customers, personal card members and service establishments a click away from many key features, including:

  • Ability to view online statements and billing payment
  • Access to international travel and Travel Manager resources
  • Access to customer service from anywhere on site
  • Insight to special promotions and club reward offers

Diners Club currently serves more than 8 million card members worldwide and is issued in more countries than any other charge card today.

Covansys deployed its Web-to-Enterprise Integration (WEISM) services within Diners Club's American and Canadian sites by designing and developing major components and implementing selected architecture to create a unique and enhanced customer-facing Internet site.

In this multi-phase project, Covansys partnered with Diners Club to develop the business requirements and select third-party tools to address the core infrastructure requirements for the site, such as Web content management, personalization and email management. Covansys then defined the technical architecture, developed the site, and supported the implementation activities. Covansys used its flexible, offsite delivery model by establishing a local team in Colorado and performing all the development in its Denver branch office.

"Covansys has continuously demonstrated the ability to meet the most challenging needs for technology and present a unique and valuable Internet experience for our customers," said Charles Kim, vice president Technical Operations, Citicorp Diners Club. "The team created a Web site that provides complete customized information for each of our various customer segments, while strengthening Diners Club's cohesive presence and identity."

"Covansys welcomed the opportunity to assist Diners Club with this project," said Steven Hall, director, Covansys. "Our objective was to apply our advanced technology to develop an infrastructure for Diners Club that would allow them to meet their business goals and build stronger customer relationships. "The skills and expertise of Covansys' team were critical to meet the management and development requirements for this project."

Serving a wide range of private and public sector enterprises, Covansys offers Web-to-Enterprise Integration (WEISM) expertise to improve client business efficiency and profitability by integrating Web applications with their core business systems. In addition to providing integrated, customer-focused IT services, Covansys also specializes in enterprise resource planning (ERP) implementations and upgrades, data warehousing, document management and custom application development.
