Sapphire to deliver integrated business management solution in New York
Sapphire Systems today announced that it is expanding operations with a new office in the USA and has signed an agreement with SAP Americas to supply the SAP Business One business management solution in New York, USA.
Sapphire, headquartered in City of London, already has offices in Los Angeles, USA, in addition to offices in Edinburgh, Manchester and training centre on the Isle of Man. The company has been working with SAP since 2004 as a value added reseller (VAR) of SAP Business One; in April 2007 Sapphire was named as one of the first SAP Gold Partners in the UK, following early adoption of the PartnerEdge program, then at the SAP UK Partner Awards in April 2008 Sapphire was recognised as the Channel Partner of the Year, based on revenue, in the SAP Business One category.
Ian Caswell, Managing Director at Sapphire, said “We are thrilled to expand our US operation from the west coast to the east coast of America. This is an exciting time for Sapphire and we look forward to continuing our development worldwide; in time we aim to offer our customers 24 hours a day of Support as standard, providing them the best service possible.”
“Sapphire Systems’ leadership team has a strong reputation and the firm is already a leading SAP channel partner for SAP Business One within Europe,” said Conrad Mandala, vice president, SME and Channels, SAP Canada and SAP Business One, SAP North America. “We welcome the expertise and consultative selling strategy that Sapphire Systems will bring to the SAP partner ecosystem in support of SAP Business One from its new office in New York.”
On Sapphire’s achievements to date Ian said “We attribute our success to our ‘customer-first’ ethos which means the provision of a smooth implementation service, followed by a first class support and services offering – and this is what Sapphire will bring to New York. We have international clients with offices in both Europe and the States and a permanent base in New York will facilitate our aim to provide them with exceptional service, with consultants and account managers readily available to meet their requirements.” He concluded “SAP Business One is ideal for organisations with multiple offices worldwide as it is able to manage multiple currency and company requirements – as well as being such a scalable solution.”
