UXC Getronics Australia Implements SAP® Software in 13 Weeks With the SAP® Business All-in-One Fast-Start Program

SAP NEWSBYTE - October 13, 2009 - UXC Getronics Australia is one of Australia’s largest independent IT services providers. The company was given six months to change its back-end systems after Getronics Australia was acquired by UXC. After deciding to invest in the SAP® Business All-in-One fast-start program, the organization had very little time to get the implementation completed.

“Globally, the company was using SAP before the acquisition in Australia, so the staff was very familiar with the SAP software and interface,” said Paul Crilly, finance director and implementation executive, UXC Getronics Australia. “We looked at one other major competitor; however, we chose SAP because our basic needs and peripheral needs were being met by our existing SAP software. It made sense to reinvest in SAP under our new umbrella company, UXC.”

Due to the pressure to change its system, SAP specialty integrator Oxygen recommended that Getronics undertake an OxygenExpress fast-start implementation of SAP® Business All-in-One solution. UXC is pleased with the functionality and capability of the “out of the box” solution, and its staff has responded positively. With SAP software, they now have a strong platform and footprint that will enable them to further adapt the solution so that it can expand as their business requirements change and grow.
