International Operations

Sapphire recognises that companies operating in a global market face a very different set of challenges to domestic businesses. Not only are there the obvious obstacles to negotiate such as language barriers, adherence to local reporting standards, domestic business legislation and currency fluctuations but there are other factors to consider including cultural differences, conflicting business priorities and a need for products and services that are tailored to best serve the local populace. Factor in an amalgamation of disconnected, aging IT systems and we can begin to see a mass of business complexities that can impede the running of a thriving, cost-effective and streamlined international business operation.

Fortunately, help is at hand. Sapphire specialise in helping international operations standardise on a single, integrated business technology platform – wherever you happen to be and whatever your business sells. We offer market-leading solutions that are available in over 30 different languages and we can implement them anywhere in the world. What’s more, we employ multi-lingual support staff and offer 24/7 support so - for all your staff - help and advice is just a call away.

What are the benefits of a single platform?

Studies have shown that a variety of benefits are achieved by using a single business application across the enterprise including:

	More efficient, standardised business processes
	A single deployment scenario, using one customisable template
	Faster data processing times
	Reduced operating costs
	Elimination of redundant systems
	Global sharing and reporting of information
	Lower development and maintenance costs
	Reduced operational risk
