The implementation with eq system was one of the best I ever participated. It was best ordered and monitored; we could count on the partner’s understanding, understanding of the processes but also understanding of us. We did not feel as if we were laymen implementing the system. We were partners with whom one cooperates during implementation. Clearly, ASPROVA APS, a fully developed solution and the quality of pre-implementation analysis were also of great importance. Today, thanks to the experience gained, we are extending the implementation in new operational areas of our company.
