“NASA has bought our software.” Engineers carpigiani to … – Il Resto del Carlino (Blog)

Carpi (Modena), March 13, 2015 – Italy not appreciate them while US agencies like NASA use their product . Alessandro Gasparini and Marco Meschieri , Carpi, have devised a software, LogicalDOC , which allows you to automatically manage electronic documents of all kinds , from invoices to the email.

The application package, with a registered trademark, is the company’s product Meschieri and Gasparini , Logical Objects , founded in 2006 and headquartered at number 3 of Via Aldo Moro. From this small office the two engineers and their staff – are seven in all – provide real-time assistance to customers around the world , including precisely the National Aeronautics and Space Administration in Washington Dc.

In recent weeks another prestigious client has acquired the license to use the software: Research Institute in Los Alamos, New Mexico , the laboratory where it was developed in the forties the Manhattan Project, which is the first atomic bomb , on which worked the best scientists in the world including Enrico Fermi.

Today there is a Another piece of Italy in Los Alamos and is a small office of engineers carpigiani that hold the head to the big American software house. “While in Italy in the marketing of a product prevail relations, in America are pragmatic: do not look where you come from but what you do,” says Meschieri, 39-year-old computer engineer as his partner of two years older.

“In the United States, where We have a sales office near New York , we can be competitive both in price and in customer support : sometimes we are faster us to respond to a problem reported by the customer than our local competitors. “

The secret of success, paradoxically, lies in ‘ be a small company of seven people : “Unlike the American competitors , we do not rely on the customer to a call center but If there is a problem we reply from Carpi – explains Meschieri – do shift work until ten o’clock at night to cover the time zone and sometimes we respond to emails at night. In this way we provide a qualified answer from those who created the software. “

In Italy account for only 10% of their turnover for the remaining 90% is spread in North America, Asia (China, Singapore, Malaysia, India, Hong Kong), Europe. Companies such as Philips and Bosch in the Netherlands in Singapore use LogicalDOC to manage their electronic documents.

“In general, the application packages are designed exclusively to manage invoices and accounting documents – explains Meschieri – instead there are few products like ours can handle all types of documents. ” The software allows you to store files , share them with colleagues and provides many other tools that go beyond simple storage.
