Created in April 1989,
A-Tech results from the joint experiments of Mr.
Grünenwaldt (50 years of experience and first office of study in Belgium,
ERVA, in 1949), and of Mr Clairbois (20 years experience), in the fields of
acoustics and vibration. Not less than four continents have appreciated our
services.
As specialists in acoustics, we intervene in
two great areas, namely the building sector (offices, residences and concert
halls) and the environment sector (rail, road, airports, leisure facilities and
industrial sites).
In the building area we are service provider
for property developers, architects, contractors and manufacturers of building
materials. We intervene at various levels and stages in real estate projects:
response to contest, drafting of specifications, controls of subcontractors
offers, technical consultancy concerning the design of materials, follow-up of
building sites, acceptance of work and expertise (on existing buildings, in the
event of litigation or project of transformation).
To a lesser extent, we also assist public
authorities in defining environmental policies.

Founded in 2000, Deployments
Factory provides consultancy and operational services in
industrial projects and process management.
The concept of a "deployment project" allows
you to initiate, plan, execute, control and close your projects using a
rigorous industrial model. This generic approach can be applied to a wide
variety of projects and settings. This approach implies the reproduction of a
collection of identical sub-projects:
• a set of structured processes and planned
tasks;
• attributed to "task-owners", participants
and/or service providers;
• drawing on a strictly defined set of
competences, activities, sites, infrastructure, equipment,...;
• producing up-to-date progress data on a
continuous basis;
• within the framework of a management
process geared towards project specific results and constraints.
Applications:
Post-Merger & Acquisitions Projects and
Programs / Large moves & mergers within an organization (point of sales,
central entities...) / IT or Technological Deployments / (Re) Brandings / Large
Educational Programs / Non-IT Deployments / Integrators Technology Roll-Outs /
Legal (or not) regulation changes / Soils decontamination management.

FRONTeO is a front
office software managing the entire activity of a bank branch (FRONTeO-Branch)
including all Internet banking functionalities (FRONTeO-Home).

A delicious article of confectionery with an
indefinable charm, lokoum evokes the refinement of the court of the sultans.
Its origins go back to the 14th century. A sweet paste with a subtle aroma, it
offers to those who taste it all the delights of a dainty delicacy - an
incomparable pleasure.
The family enterprise
Sehabat uses only the best ingredients in the
production of lokoum. The entire product range is made of only the highest
quality fruits and natural flavours, with the greatest respect for tradition. A
touch of creativity has engendered several unique recipes, all of which are
kept a jealously guarded secret.
The company was established in Brussels in
1989 and today enjoys an international reputation. From its new Brussels
premises, products are exported throughout Europe and Asia. Its growing success
is surely due to the care and attention governing production, the competence in
selecting ingredients, a broad range of products and the originality of its
creations.
Spicy Teas, Halva, Jams, grapsirup, mached
sesam, and honey complete a product range which will delight all those with
gourmet tastes.

In 1999 the founders of the Belgian company
Voice Insight invented a new mobile user interface
technology called VQLTM (Voice Query Language). What VQLTM really does is
interfacing existing speech engines available from the shelf to existing
database content for queries and updates in natural language. It is not a
speech engine (recognition nor synthesis), nor is it a database application on
its own. It is a middleware enabling automatic voice activation of any existing
database application. As such it allows fast deployment of voice-activated
applications in any language, supporting any device (telephone, GSM,
microphones, PDA (personal data assistants), television, remote controller,
etc.), in a server-client or in an embedded architecture. This approach has
been internationally patented.
The company has developed solution based on
the SDK in different vertical niches: GIS, GPS, Logistics, Maintenance,
Security, e-Government.

The Royal Meteorological

meteorological geophysics, hydrology, geomagnetism and magnetohydrodynamics.
Meteorology is a continuous study of the phenomena occurring in the Earth's
atmosphere. Essentially, it comprises physics, chemistry and dynamics of the
atmosphere on a macro-, meso- or micro-scale.
It also studies the direct effects of
atmospheric disturbances on the surfaces of the continents and oceans, on
electromagnetic and acoustic waves and on certain phenomena of extraterrestrial
origin. It attaches particular importance to the current state of the
atmosphere and, thanks to, among other things, the systematic archiving of data
and the models that it is able to elaborate, constitutes a basis for studies in
climatology and hydrology.
