The Customer

SSK is an agriculture orientated organisation in the Southern Cape area with a focus on Grain Management and Retail.

The Problem

SSK recently successfully implemented SAP Business One as the ERP system within the organisation. The ERP implementation included a number of customisations to accomodate industry and organisation specific requirements. There were however a number of additional requirements which were not considered in the initial phases of the ERP Implementation. SSK required a mechasim that would enable them to design and implement systems to meet the additional requirements not initially included in the ERP implementation.

Why conventional solving methods were not working

The time and cost of outsourcing the development of the additional requirements was prohibitive. At the same time, the productivity, quality and consistency of internal software development skills were not at the level required to take on such projects.

Why Frameworx was chosen to solve the problem

FrameworX would enable the internal IT team to design, develop and deploy organisation specific solutions. The IT team together with business process owners would be able to leverage organisation specific knowledge to design and implement solutions. By utilising the FrameworX ERP Integration module, tight interation with SAP Business One would be maintained.
