1993:

The first CDA plus installations were carried out and, at the biggest CRAI Centre in Sicily, the company partners met Siemens Nixdorf Informatica S.p.a whose officer understood the advantages CDA plus offered both in terms of Customer Satisfaction and of POS and Server System market penetration. Then the two parties met in Milan (Siemens' headquarters) where the SNI marketing manager said he had never seen such an innovative package in Europe before except in London.


1994:

L'Informatica became Siemens Nixdorf Informatica S.p.a's Software House. They entered into a contract by which the multinational is committed to spreading L'Informatica's procedure. At the same time, as a consequence of the installations' growth, the staff grew too, as the company took on an expert in warehouse logistics and people having University degrees. CDA plus was presented to the national UNVO group in Milan whose staff and external consultants complimented L'Informatica's partners on the depth of their analysis and the efficacy of their procedure which solves all the problems of a Distribution Centre. UNVO executives advised all their Cedis (Distribution Centres) associates to buy it

1998:

1998 was an auspicious year to achieve a technological breakthrough in CDA plus application: innovative technologies were added such as the Client Server Interface which allows our customers to indipendently develop reports and/or applications integrated into the procedure. Making use of relational databases, you can "read" CDA plus archives and files in SQL format from different workstations in a Windows environment. This paved the way for possible applications such as management control in a Client Server environment. Our company carried out this management control thanks to these technologies.
