With their project in Saponia, Combis and HT have once again demonstrated their expertise and excellent synergy effects.
Combis, system integrator, in collaboration with Hrvatski Telekom, successfully finished the project of IT infrastructure migration in Saponia, chemical company from Osijek. Using Microsoft collaboration and infrastructure solutions, as well as management and control solutions, the largest part of the previous information system was replaced, without any significant interruptions in the functioning of business critical IT services.
“Completing such a significant change in the end-user’s information system, without any more significant interruptions in business continuity, is an outstanding achievement for both the Combis team and the Saponia IT team,” said Hrvoje Dunkić, Head of the Microsoft Department in Combis.
The preparatory implementation period took about a month, while the transfer to Microsoft technology was realised over a period of three months. The final phase, i.e. the transfer from the old system to the new one took only a few days, during which Combis’s experts, who received excellent support from the Saponia IT team, migrated 350 computers to the new system, allowing at the same time for an uninterrupted use of business critical services. As part of the preparatory phase, all internal users were educated on the use of the new system, which is very important when such significant changes are made for system users.
“With this project, the Combis team has equipped Saponia with reliable IT infrastructure and services, thus allowing it to run company’s business operations in a more successful and productive way by using state-of-the-art technologies that are able to respond to set challenges,” stated Gordan Glavaš, Director of Saponia Production and Business Processes Improvement.
Davor Božić, HT Senior Corporate Accounts Manager, pointed out that he was extremely pleased with the synergy effects of Combis and HT with regard to the project concerned, as it was prepared by three parties in a high-quality way, allowing the customer to run its business in a more efficient and reliable manner and making sure that costs were optimised.
In addition, Combis’s expertise on Microsoft technology was also confirmed by the award Microsoft Country Partner of the Year 2014 for Croatia. The award of the American company for exceptional work and high-quality and successful collaboration in Croatia was presented to Combis last year.
