Low-cost Airline's Business Operations Set to Take Off with
NetSuite OneWorld
LONDON, April 13, 2016
/PRNewswire/ -- NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading
provider of cloud-based financials / ERP and omnichannel commerce
software suites, today announced that Transavia Airlines, a leading
low-cost carrier serving Europe,
has selected NetSuite OneWorld to help execute its ambitious plans
for growth. Transavia will replace a legacy AS 400-based system at
its office in the Netherlands and
an Infor system in France with
NetSuite OneWorld. Transavia plans to use NetSuite to run its
mission-critical business processes across Europe including financials, financial
consolidation, multi-subsidiary management, procure-to-pay,
reporting, and support for multi-language (English, Dutch and
French), multi-currency and multi-country tax compliance.
"As a subsidiary of the Air France/KLM Group, serving more than
100 destinations in Europe and
North Africa, Transavia has
ambitious plans for growth throughout Europe, becoming one of the leading low cost
airlines in Europe," said
Transavia CFO Dirk Neelis. "Having
Netsuite OneWorld as our financial and procurement backbone enables
us to easily scale up with that planned growth, where our previous
cumbersome manual and Excel-based processes that were time
intensive and prone to errors will become history. NetSuite
OneWorld offers a modern, global-ready system that helps us to
achieve the goals of Transavia Netherlands and Transavia France, by
fully aligning and further simplifying our business processes."
Why NetSuite OneWorld?
After a comprehensive
evaluation of multiple ERP systems, Transavia selected NetSuite
OneWorld because it offers the following:
- A single cloud solution with a broad range of capabilities
needed to run complex and mission-critical business processes
across its head offices in Holland
and France and its subsidiaries,
as the airline expands into new markets in Europe.
- Real-time global financial consolidation with real-time
visibility across all of Transavia's operations with one single
unified financial system of record and consolidated financial
reporting across the entire enterprise, while also offering
multibook accounting capabilities.
- NetSuite's cloud infrastructure aligns with Transavia's goals
of reducing costs and increasing efficiency by removing the need to
support and maintain on-premise software while presenting a greater
opportunity to make use of shared services such as outsourced
accounting.
- The agility, scalability and flexibility needed to help enter
new markets, expand operations and grow revenue.
- A powerful development platform that offers robust integration
capabilities to tie NetSuite OneWorld's financial system to
Transavia's reservation system and Airpas, an airline-specific cost
management solution.
NetSuite GSI Partner Capgemini to Deliver
Implementation
Transavia selected Capgemini, a NetSuite GSI partner, to do the
implementation and integration work, based on its experience and
reputation in the industry and its NetSuite capabilities.
"Transavia's overhaul of its global finance system, combined
with its ambitious plans for growth and its focus on reducing
inefficiencies, are a great fit for the combined capabilities of
NetSuite and Capgemini," said Mark
Grimberg, Deputy CEO at Capgemini Netherlands. "Our clients
are increasingly leveraging the cloud for ERP and other
mission-critical applications, with our Global Partners like
NetSuite. We look forward to helping Transavia and other companies
capitalise on the benefits of cloud ERP working with Capgemini as a
partner."
