HERNDON, Va., Aug. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Deltek, the leading global provider of software and solutions for project-based businesses, recently announced new enhancements to its purpose-built solutions for government contractors. These innovative features build upon Deltek’s decades of experience delivering project-based businesses the solutions they need to run their organizations. These include adding additional functionality to Deltek’s AI-powered business companion, Dela™, as well as several updates focused on addressing the unique requirements of aerospace and defense manufacturers.

Deltek announced new enhancements to its purpose-built solutions for government contractors.

Deltek Costpoint is the leading ERP software for government contractors, offering an all-in-one solution that connects project data and processes, automates tasks, incorporates AI, ensures compliance with government regulations, and delivers projects on time and on budget. Costpoint furthers its commitment to purposeful innovation and successful projects with its latest updates, including:

A Smarter Digital Assistant: Costpoint customers can have more in-depth conversations with the AI digital assistant, Ask Dela, with expanded capabilities that broaden the types of questions they can ask, improve responses, offer the ability to dig deeper by asking follow-up questions, and give access to chat history. This allows users to accomplish tasks more quickly without having to open related applications or create additional queries.Greater Convenience with the Costpoint App Integration for MS Teams: Costpoint has streamlined the experience so that users are able to enter time, submit and approve timesheets, and use Ask Dela without navigating away from Microsoft Teams. By meeting users where they are already working, this streamlined experience saves time and makes everyday tasks more efficient.Up-to-Date Compliance with Government Security Requirements: Deltek Costpoint GovCon Cloud Moderate has achieved FedRAMP Moderate Ready status, and Deltek is committed to helping government contractors stay compliant with all requirements – including the recently proposed updates to the DoD’s CMMC enforcement rules – to ensure they are able to win and maintain highly competitive contracts.Re-imagined Time and Expense: In addition to Costpoint’s Interactive email time submission feature, firms can increase productivity and visibility with a reimagined time and expense entry experience, giving them the ability to enter time within applications they’re already using. The new Quick Entry Expense Report makes it easier and quicker to enter expenses from one simplified screen.

Deltek is also incorporating Dela capabilities within its other solutions to provide greater efficiency and automation around the entire project lifecycle. Building on previous updates, GovWin IQ is rolling out its Smart Suite, which pairs analyst expertise and Dela’s AI-powered technology, so that government contractors can quickly and easily research and identify opportunities to win more contracts. These features allow users to rapidly glean answers to important questions and drill down into the data, leveraging the power of AI to make the best-informed decisions for business growth. Expanding on the power of Dela, additional features are also being released within the Deltek PM Compass and Deltek Talent Management solutions.

With a special focus on addressing the needs of the A&D manufacturing industry, other key product updates include the integration of Ask Dela within ProPricer and the release of Cost Volume Pro, a new product from ProPricer that streamlines proposal submission package creation and management. Deltek also recently released customer-requested enhancements for its quality assurance solution, TIP Technologies, as part of its commitment to improving the production process for manufacturers.

“We’re committed to purposeful innovation and comprehensive support for government contractors. The latest updates to Costpoint and our entire portfolio of modern solutions are built with their needs in mind,” said Warren Linscott, SVP and Chief Product Officer of Deltek. “With Ask Dela and other product innovations, Deltek is delivering on its commitment to being the leading technology partner for government contractors of all sizes.

LONGPORT Whale Enters Malaysian Market with Next Generation Trading Infrastructure for Local Brokerages

Published

LONGPORT Whale, with proven track record across 100+ institutional clients in Asia, makes its Malaysia debut at Bursa Malaysia Stockbroking Trade Fair 2026

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LONGPORT Whale, a provider of AI-Ready securities trading infrastructure, is making its entry into the Malaysian market at the Bursa Malaysia Stockbroking Trade Fair 2026. The move comes as Malaysia’s Capital Market Masterplan 2026–2030 (CMP4) continues to hone in on local brokerages to modernise core systems, balancing investor experience, regulatory compliance, and operational resilience simultaneously.

Malaysian brokerages are increasingly confronted by a challenge that goes beyond front-end upgrades. Legacy architectures struggle to keep pace with digital-native investor expectations, rising cybersecurity standards, and the demand for multi-market expansion simultaneously. For many such brokerages, the question is no longer whether to modernize, but how to do so without adding complexity or disrupting the business continuity that clients depend on.

Zhong Hua, CEO, LONGPORT Whale, said, “Core trading infrastructure must support continuous evolution — in investor experience, compliance, and AI readiness — without adding unnecessary complexity. The brokerages that lead the next decade won’t be the ones with the best system today; they’ll be the ones whose systems are designed to keep getting better. LONGPORT Whale aims to bring its Asia-proven experience to help Malaysian brokers strike that balance.”

Built on a cloud-native microservices architecture and trusted by more than 100 institutional clients in Asia, Whale’s platform is engineered by industry professionals and refined through years of first-hand operational experience. For the Malaysian market, it addresses four priorities: a best-in-class trading experience validated across competitive, highly regulated markets in Asia; system resilience and performance built for institutional scale, with high system performance and output, real time risk management, and low system latency; global market connectivity spanning Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong SAR, US, and Japan without requiring system rebuilds; and an API-first, data-unified architecture that gives brokerages a practical foundation for AI adoption.

Hong Kong SAR and Singapore, where Whale serves online brokers, traditional banking firms, banks and wealth management institutes in a stringent regulatory environment, serve as the primary reference market for its Malaysia expansion. The company said it aims to work with local industry participants as both an infrastructure partner and a contributor to broader conversation on responsible modernization under CMP4.

About LONGPORT Whale

LONGPORT Whale provides integrated securities trading infrastructure to brokers, banks, fund houses, wealth managers, and family offices across Asia. Its cloud-native platform supports multi-market, multi-asset trading across front-, middle-, and back-office workflows, with a deployment model designed for regulatory alignment and long-term scalability.

Thunes and Vodacom Tanzania Unite to Power Cross-Border M-Pesa Payments Across China and Uganda

Collaboration revolutionises trade & financial convenience for Tanzanian merchants and consumers

SINGAPORE, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Thunes, the Smart Superhighway to move money around the world, has joined forces with Vodacom Tanzania, the country’s leading telco company, to transform cross-border trade and digital financial inclusion with Vodacom’s new M-Pesa Global Payment solution. Thanks to the collaboration, Vodacom customers in Tanzania can now seamlessly pay merchants in Uganda and China directly from their mobile phones.

This milestone solution responds to growing demand from Tanzanian traders who engage in commerce with Ugandan and Chinese markets but often face challenges with costly, slow, and insecure payment methods. With this innovation, leveraging the Thunes Direct Global Network, Vodacom aims to bridge those gaps, offering secure, real-time digital payments across borders and reinforcing its leadership in mobile money innovation in Africa.

The solution supports trade with two key markets for Tanzania. For eight consecutive years, China has been Tanzania’s largest trading partner, with bilateral trade hitting $8.8 billion in 2024. In the same year, bilateral trade between Tanzania and Uganda reached approximately $2.23 billion, an increase of 64% on the previous year.

Epimack Mbeteni, M-Pesa Director at Vodacom Tanzania said: “This is more than just a payment feature, it is a catalyst for economic empowerment and a gateway for small and medium businesses and entrepreneurs in Tanzania to compete and thrive in regional and global markets. Through Thunes’ expansive and trusted Network we are enabling seamless, secure, and affordable cross-border payments that empower people, fuel trade and place M-Pesa at the center of Africa’s digital commerce future.”

Through Thunes’ Direct Global Network, customers can now send payments to merchants in Uganda using MTN MoMo and to Chinese merchants through the Alipay network, all through the M-Pesa USSD menu or the M-Pesa Super App. The process is secure, user-friendly, and eliminates the burden of traditional banking barriers for everyday traders and businesses.

Dawei Wang, SVP Network at Thunes, added: “Vodacom Tanzania joining the Thunes Direct Global Network to digitise cross-border payments is a game changer for local businesses. By combining Vodacom’s technology with Thunes’ trusted and proprietary Network, Tanzanian customers can pay partners in China and Uganda in real time. This innovation accelerates interoperability along with international trade and business growth and supports our vision of connecting the next billion end users to the global economy.”

This initiative stands as a strategic enabler for consumers and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) who need reliable and quick financial tools such as mobile money. A 2025 GeoPoll survey on Tanzania Financial Services and Usage found that 94% of the survey’s respondents use mobile money.

The Thunes and Vodacom Tanzania alliance is set to transform the lives of millions of consumers by dismantling cross-border barriers. By hyper-connecting Tanzania to global powerhouses like China and streamlining intra-African trade, the collaboration is helping to build an inclusive economy and grow Tanzania’s role as a force in the global market.
