Israeli Ministry of Agriculture Enforces Government Rules with Magic's iBOLT


Agility and Business Activity Monitoring are key features

OR YEHUDA, Israel, April 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Magic Software Enterprises, Magic Software Enterprises Ltd. (NASDAQ:MGIC), a leading provider of state-of-the-art business integration and development technology, announced today that the Israeli Ministry of Agriculture has implemented Magic's iBOLT integration platform to insure compliance with Israeli government rules and regulations. The project was finalized in November 2005 and was implemented by Marathon, a Magic Software Partner.

The Ministry of Agriculture, like most other governmental ministries, requires quick implementation and adherence to "constantly changing" rules and regulations. The ministry has chosen to respond to this challenge with iBOLT. The iBOLT integration platform provides a quick solution for automating the implementing of new rules and regulations and for establishing an updated national data bank. iBOLT enables the ministry to get dynamic updates of the data bank without requiring user intervention. iBOLT also simultaneously provides real time monitoring and notifications of erroneous data within its pre-defined system. In addition, iBOLT allows identification of non-reporting agencies and clients.

Shosh Klaper, Head of Information Technology in the Ministry of Agriculture, stated, "iBOLT provides us with flexibility while implementing any new regulations or requirements in our ministry, and delivers a complete picture in real-time on nation wide reporting. iBOLT provides all of this with significant costs saving and minimal investment in human resources."

Udi Ertel, Managing Director of Magic Israel, said, "iBOLT has allowed the Israeli Ministry of Agriculture to achieve RTE in a cost efficient yet dynamic way. This is another example of the acceptance that both iBOLT and eDeveloper have achieved within the Israeli government. This is also another example of the use of iBOLT for compliance management, along with the implementation done for monitoring money laundering with iBOLT in large Israeli banks."
