Astral is first Navision Software Solution Centre appointed in South Africa

Johannesburg, 10 Nov 1998
Navision Software South Africa, a leading provider of enterprise business management software, recently announced that Astral is to become the first Navision Software Solution Centre in South Africa.

Astral is a Cape Town based consulting company focused on implementations for medium sized organisations with unique business requirements and the need for a responsive solution.

The senior partner of Astral, Paul Jensen, said the decision to partner with Navision Software South Africa was based on their excellent track record and their position as a leading enterprise business management solution vendor in the global market.

Astral currently has four systems consultants trained in implementing Navision applications.

"Navision is a good company and their financials management software is recognised as being among the best in the world. Their global infrastructure also means that our new consultants will have the opportunity of sharpening their skills internationally which is most important for us," said Jensen.

Jensen added that he was impressed with the commitment that Navision Software has made to both the global and South African markets.

Navision's South African managing director, Keith Mullan, said the move to partner with Astral was important and strategic. "The training of new Navision Software consultants by Astral will expand the base of available skilled Navision resources in South Africa."

"With the support of Navision Software South Africa I believe that we will build a strong team of consultants and grow our customer base in line with the target we have set ourselves," said Jensen.
