In October 2005 Softline founded an affiliate company, Softline Business Practice. The new company’s main business is solving the tasks of promoting, deploying and maintaining ERP systems.
Softline Business Practice is a partner of Oracle in deploying a full-featured ERP system with a world-famous name – Oracle E-Business Suite. "Through continuous improvement to economic prosperity – this is our mission," says Serhii Borysovych Burenin, the Company Director. The company’s most valuable asset is its staff – true professional consultants who provide a full range of consulting, deployment and technical support services for Oracle E-Business Suite applications.
Softline Business Practice promotes on the market a complete solution for creating an information infrastructure for e-commerce, targeted both at small and medium-sized businesses and at global corporations. The Oracle E-Business Suite ERP system covers the management of all enterprise resources: finance, production, procurement, distribution, HR, strategic planning and management. The system includes specialized applications: Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Supplier Relationship Management (SRM).
Advantages of the proposed solution:
– State-of-the-art methods of managing enterprise activities.
– Broad system functionality. It enables enterprises to gradually automate all areas of activity within one system, sparing them the need to buy and integrate other solutions or to move to another system as their enterprise management automation needs grow.
– Localized solution. The system is adapted to the requirements of Ukrainian legislation. Output forms are updated as part of technical support whenever the legislation changes.
– Single-vendor solution. It is supplied as a full set of software tools: a development framework, analytical tools and data warehousing tools. The result is maximum standardization and simplified technical support of the system (one source of deployment and technical support services for all system components). Moreover, DBMS and development environment procurement costs are reduced to zero, as all these components are supplied free of charge with the purchase of the ERP system.
– High technological level of the solution.
– Centralized data storage and processing. Data are stored and processed in a single database, with no need to maintain and replicate several databases in different company departments. This minimizes network traffic and the costs of purchasing, deploying and maintaining hardware, and dramatically reduces the number of servers required.
– Minimal hardware requirements for client workstations are also ensured by the internet architecture of the software. The system client is an ordinary web browser. The costs of deploying and maintaining the system, as well as hardware costs, are kept to a minimum.
– Scalability. The software makes it possible to gradually expand the system’s functionality and number of users. The system is modular.
– The openness of the system ensures integration with specialized software and in-house systems.
– Turnkey solution. The deployment project includes the full range of deployment activities, from training to putting the system into operation. For the enterprise, the result of the deployment project is a system ready for use.
There are more than 27,000 deployments of the system worldwide, more than 15 of them in Ukraine.
