1. SYSPRO is one of the few mid-market business application vendors focused on developing a single-source solution that is not a collection of integrated disparate systems. This single DNA ensures that there is consistency as the basic underlying structure and processes have remained the same, making it easy for people to learn new features of the software and to grow and progress with our product over the years. Introducing a new module is easy, as it follows the same structure and format as other modules2. Our single source architecture is opened to external integration and customization through the unique e.net architecture and array of business objects.
Because we are Privately held:We can afford to be Agile and Innovative, without shareholders looking over our shoulders – while remaining reliable on our delivery promiseWe continue to keep pace with technology & industry demands as demonstrated in the release of 6.1 which beside over 300 features included steps towards more integrated analytics and model-driven architectureIn addition we have never compromised quality for profit, focusing wholly on product value and long-term customer relationships
SYSPRO recognizes that no two customers are alike, hence our modular approach to selling – there are more than 50 modules available to tailor solutions specific to each customer and their needs. In addition we work very closely with our customer to architect and model their businesses in advance of implementing SYSPRO (and sometimes in advance of selling).SYSPRO has a proven track record in delivering unique services and support, with the best price to performance ratio.We have a retention rate in excess of 96%, with a number of customers having been with us for > 20yearsSYSPRO value s the relationship over and beyond the transactionOur customers love us – anyone who has attended a SYSPRO conference will attest to thisOne of our primary focuses is to help customers deliver on their Brand promise
SYSPRO tries to match highly specialized know-how of it’s network of consultants to its customers’ business needs, thus designing a team to suit the customers size and level of expertise required.Thus delivering expert strategic, functional and operational consultancy throughout the ERP implementation process, resulting in a more efficient and holistic approach to project implementation.
Quantum Architecture factors in the business architecture, the information architecture the process architecture and the technology architecture, including Organizational Roles, Risk and Compliance issues, recording all architectures in a single repository i.e. Multiple sources into a single repository.

The whole approach of QA is to align Strategy with Technology. Too many CFO’s believe that IT is constraining their business. By understanding an organizations strategy and their brand promise to their customers, solution architects can model and streamline the organizations business processes and map directly onto their SYSPRO ERP application, through the use of SPM.
In order to obtain Business optimization Quantum architecture needs to be introduced at the planning and strategic layer. This allows the business to be looked at as a whole and decisions taken around changes to business processes, people and the systems, providing 3 degrees of freedom and Optimized Business.ORTraditionally ERP projects are managed at the operational layer. The strategic/planning layer decides they need a new system to run their business; they create a project and project team, who then go out and find a system. This provides 1 degree of freedom – i.e. just implement the system, no changes to people or processesBy introducing Quantum architecture at the planning and strategic layer the business is looked at as a whole and decisions taken around changes to business processes, people and the systems
Your unique SYSPRO Process Model provides one source of the truth and anend-to-end alignment of all entities in the organizationThe key to a successful ERP implementation is the effective realization of the company’s strategy and business processes through the ERP functionality set. Simply put: the implemented system must correspond with and enable the business processes in your organization.At SYSPRO, we have pre-configured process patterns to support your business. These patterns include Patterns for Usage, Patterns of Functionality and Patterns of Configuration. Along with your business knowledge, we select the patterns which are the best matches for your business and configure them for the perfect match. In this way, we do not start our implementations from scratch, but bring a wealth of experience, knowledge and industry processes to realize your ERP implementation.There are two very basic but compelling reasons to start with a pre-defined model:The models are a reflection of best practice in a particular industry. (e.g. there could be eight scenario patterns of how to capture a requisition. The business could choose the scenario that is the closest match and configure the system to meet the additional requirements.)The business will know upfront what the system can and cannot do and use that as a basic point from which to start.
SPM provides you with a model-driven architecture that supports management by aligning IT with company strategy, business objectives and sustainabilty; as well as providing a transparent view of your uniquely modeled processes and organizational roles.Your primary source of information is no longer word documents that have no relationship to one another, but interrelated models that:Give you a clear understanding and transparency of your business, processes and systems across your organizationMove your company’s unique process requirements from the minds of individuals to a central repositorySpeed up understanding of business requirements or solutions options, resulting in a better quality implementationStandardize and record processes as they evolveAllow for what-if scenario planning in the models before implementationProvide you with project control and understanding across your implementations and upgrades Define system configuration and integration from the modeled business processesProvide you with a central change repository for all changes, whether at business, process, or system levelAllow for the standardization of business models across different organizational business unitsProvide an audit trail of the collaborative business decisions made during the modeling of the processes
Step 1 - SYSPRO solution architectureWe develop models which represent the system independent of any specific business implementation. The system models are kept in the context of SYSPRO’s Solution Architecture, where the language and the levels of the architecture all reflect system functionality, data and the roles and security down to the level of detail that is requested.Step 2 - Your business architectureThe business requirements are modelled around the functions of the business to develop a Business Architecture. This is where information that is industry specific can be added. Although the system might have, for example, procurement functionality, the way that procurement takes place in Manufacturing, Mining, Construction or Financial Services will be modelled differently.Step 3 - Your SYSPRO process-driven solutionThis is the matching of what the system can do to your business requirements, resulting in a unique process model. The System and Business Architectures are combined into a Process-Driven solution. These models are in a language or format that both business people and the system implementers can relate to.You now have models that business can adopt and change, and that system people can use to build the solution. As the model steps are fully integrated with the SYSPRO ERP application, the newly modified business models and decisions made during the modeling can be quickly and easily configured in SYSPRO.When changing your business processes or wanting to migrate to a newer version of the software, it is possible to know through the models (which are all interconnected) what the likely impacts are going to be. The model can also be used when wanting to apply a standard process across company branches or subsidiaries.

SYSPRO Workflow Services is a Framework.Think of it as a toolbox – a toolbox that comprises a canvas or workflow designer and includes the following:Activity Designer – allows you to create custom activities or functionsWorkflow Designer – this WYSIWYG designer allows for the orchestration of the workflow by dragging and dropping activities from the toolbox pane to the designer pane. This also allows you to test your workflow form end to end before you deploy itWorkflow Service – this tracks information about each workflow and its activities. It stores, persists and tracks custom data without having to create custom databasesWorkflow Monitor – allows you to track workflows visually
