SAN RAMON, Calif., July 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Achievo(R) Corporation, a leading
software outsourcing and information technology services provider, announced
today its partnership with TVB.com on its e-Community Platform projects.
TVB.com is the leading global entertainment and media company providing one of
the world's largest online Chinese television programs.

TVB.com's e-Community Platform is comprised of the following five key modules:
Membership, Forum, Voting, E-Card and Jetso. The e-Community platform creates
an innovative and exciting environment for members and visitors to
interactively exchange views and feedback on the numerous TVB television

artistes! At the backend, the e-Community platform adopts advanced analytics
technology and intelligent statistical features to perform automated online

"Achievo provided core technology expertise coupled with project management
and implementation for TVB.com. Critical to the success was the utilization
of Achievo's expertise in the LAMP solution stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, and
PHP)," says Chesney Wong, general manager of Achievo's Overseas Business
Division. "LAMP is one of the leading open source software solutions Achievo
uses to run dynamic websites and servers for its clients. In addition to
possessing the critical expertise, Achievo was chosen for its project
management model, culture, and communication and collaboration styles which
contributed to great efficiencies with TVB.com."

"This was our first experience outsourcing a large-scale project such as our
website development. We have been tremendously pleased by Achievo's
management and execution of the project. Achievo solved our resource
constraint by providing high quality resources and allowing us to speed up our
time-to-market for new products and services inline with TVB.com's strategic
growth plans. They have allowed us to gain a competitive advantage on our
competition," says Ivy Wong, COO of TVB.com. "Achievo really allowed us to
streamline our quality improvement process and work out any and all issues
with the deployment of our new products based on LAMP. As TVB.com grows, we
are confident that Achievo will help us get there."
