Altán selected an Enterprise Resource Planning solution
Selected SaaS solutions leveraging more straightforward configuration and state-of-the-art platform to implement out-of-the-box processes

Alternative scenarios were discussed for CRM (residential and business), Billing and SOA integration.
Options were evaluated, and the impact was discussed with the management team.
An extensive list of measures was evaluated with a cost-benefit analysis, qualified and planned with critical milestones.
Outsourcing options were analysed for desktop management, server management and application development and maintenance.
An overall roadmap was planned.
