Marketwired
Epicor Software Corporation (NASDAQ: EPIC), a leading provider of
enterprise business software solutions to the midmarket and Global
1000 companies, today announced that Amiantit, an international
manufacturer and distributor of pipes systems and pipes
technologies, has selected the Epicor 9 next-generation enterprise
resource planning (ERP) system for its German distribution
subsidiary Jos. Hansen & Soehne. Building on Epicor's long
history of success in Germany, this is the first Epicor 9 customer
in the country.
Headquartered in Saudi Arabia and Dusseldorf, the Amiantit Group
has been using Epicor's ERP solutions for the past 10 years and the
company has plans to implement Epicor 9 in other subsidiaries as
well after a successful pilot project in Germany. The European part
of the Group uses Epicor ERP in nine countries including Germany,
Poland, France, Spain, Romania, Norway, Turkey, South Africa, and
Argentina. Amiantit opted for Epicor 9 because of this successful
long term partnership.
"We look back on the relationship with Epicor as a trust-based
one which developed over the past 10 years," said Hartmut Ludwig,
vice president for Amiantit. "We appreciate the professionalism of
the company, as well as, the ability to customize the Epicor ERP
system to suit the needs of each business branch. With Epicor 9,
our subsidiary Jos. Hansen & Soehne in Hamburg is implementing
a solution that offers high additional value, especially with the
integrated business process management module."
Another key reason for choosing Epicor 9 was the fact that in
addition to its service-oriented architecture (SOA) it also
includes business process management (BPM) tools, which support
manufacturing processes by enabling administrators to define and
customize their own processes according to project concepts.
"Epicor 9 is perfectly suited for global commerce, and Amiantit
is the latest example of the momentum we are seeing for the
solution worldwide," said Epicor Chairman, President and CEO George
Klaus. "Epicor 9 continues to expand our market opportunity, and we
are winning business in countries for which we previously could not
have competed. We look forward to assisting more companies like
Amiantit with the move to Epicor 9 in the future."
