JBA International, a global leader in Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions, today announced their strategic alliance with Deloitte & Touche LLP, confirming D&T`s commitment to helping manufacturers maximize their investment in enterprise-wide information technology, financial and operations solutions. Deloitte & Touche provides JBA implementation and associated services largely through its Management Solutions and Services practice.
The Deloitte & Touche/JBA alliance unites the business perspective and industry experience of a leading ERP implementor, Deloitte & Touche; with the technological and industry expertise of a premier ERP software provider, JBA. The alliance also builds o n the success that Deloitte & Touche has achieved on behalf of manufacturers through its implementation of enterprise-wide, integrated business solutions, not just enhanced systems applications. The overall result: manufacturers will be better equipped t o meet the challenge of fundamentally improving the business processes throughout their organizations. Deloitte & Touche and JBA will continue to focus their efforts on maximizing the return on investment of ERP systems for manufacturers.
"There were a number of reasons why we chose to establish a formal relationship with JBA. Among them were JBA`s growing penetration in its vertical markets and the depth of its products` functionality for those specific industries," stated Bruckner de Villiers, Managing Director of JBA South Africa. "Couple these reasons with Deloitte & Touche`s ability to deliver a value-added implementation by focusing on our core competencies -information technology, financial management, and operations improvement - and the result is a manufacturing systems solution designed for specific industries that addresses the challenging issues of global supply chain management and customer service. JBA`s investments in new client/server technology and advanced functionality in areas such as workflow management and manufacturing planning position them well to create value for our clients."
"It only makes sense that we partner with Deloitte & Touche," continued de Villiers. "We share many of the same qualities both JBA and Deloitte & Touche are known for delivering cost-effective, successful implementations in the midrange market place, a nd culturally our companies are a good fit. This fact is reinforced by mutual customers that say we`re flexible, and easy to do business with."
