System Innovation Romania has successfully implemented
SAP Business One at AFI Palace Cotroceni
AFI Palace Cotroceni, the largest shopping center in Romania, has chosen System Innovation Romania
to provide localization and implementation of the SAP Business One ERP solution, considering the
statutory requirements, but also the internal group process.
SAP Business One implementation at AFI Palace Cotroceni follows the AFI Group decision to use a
common system at subsidiaries level for a better connectivity and integration. SAP Business One
ensures automated and fast processes between all group companies by reducing lack of transparency
and difficulty in obtaining data.
Counting 300 shops of world’s top brands and 2500 parking spaces, AFI Palace Cotroceni Mega Fun is a
subsidiary of one of the greatest infrastructure and real estate developers and investors in Central and
South-Eastern Europe.
“Africa Israel Investments Project Manager contacted us to work-along with their SAP Business One
consultants team in order to localize and implement the system for AFI Palace Cotroceni. Our main
responsibilities were to ensure communication among group consultants and users and to adapt the
system to company business flow, following the local legislation and demands. Thus, our customers
enjoy the benefits of globalization and, moreover, the advantages of localizing SAP Business One. We
offer post-implementation support and add-on integration for specific requirements like Banking
Integration or Real Estate.”, announced Irina Oprea, General Manager System Innovation Romania.
Implementing SAP Business One solves the limitations of the old ERP system used by AFI Palace
Cotroceni, and at the same time, ensures communication integrity between sales, purchasing, finance
and budget, and information traceability to facilitate group reporting.
“We have chosen to implement SAP Business One at all company levels within AFI Group due to its
global and integrated solution and since this ERP solution allows system adaptation to each subsidiary
particular needs. System Innovation Romania offered us assistance throughout the implementation and
localization management for Romania. Most important was the ease of comprehending our request, the
flexibility shown towards customising the software to match our individual needs and the promptly
support offered in critical moments.” Orin Fattal, AFI Group, International Software Development
Manager
