Online, April 18, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Data3s today announced it has been selected to provide a major overhaul of Medochemie's data infrastructure that will unify the company's information systems and enable better sharing of information among countries.
This major systems integration project will complement the modernization work already underway at Medochemie Ltd. to realize their vision of becoming the most technologically advanced international generics pharmaceutical company in Europe. While financial details have not been released, sources in Medochemie indicate that this is the largest infrastructure investment of its kind in over a decade.
The project will focus on improving key aspects of Medochemie's operations, including faster turnaround of exports in response to local demands, improved quality of service, shorter payment terms for suppliers and partners, as well as improved visibility in key markets. Chief among Medochemie's goals is the improvement of its existing business, as well as the company's ability to identify and capitalize upon previously unexploited business opportunities.
The first phase of Medochemie's modernization program will focus on the Central-Southern European zone, and will include major investments in their operations in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Bulgaria, in addition to the company's seat in Cyprus.
"The countries we have selected for this 'pilot' are representative of our European affiliates," said Alexis Neophytou, Medochemie's CEE Zone Director. "We want to measure the impact of our investment here first - first to make sure we are measuring the right key performance indicators in place, and second, to establish a set of standards that we can apply elsewhere," Mr. Neophytou added.
According to Yiannakis Mouzouris, the company's Export Manager, Medochemie's position as an "enormously successful export company" has largely protected it from the current financial crisis. "Over 97% of our revenues are generated abroad," Mr. Mouzouris said, "much of that in Central and Eastern Europe. To maintain our integrity and grow in these markets, we are committing significant financial resources to build and support our operations there. Improvement of IT operations is naturally a part of this," Mr. Mouzouris added.
Mr. Mouzouris also noted that Medochemie Ltd. will also direct investment to their distribution network, shoring up loyalty and support among sales and distribution partners in key markets, while expanding their reach through new sales channels. "We are committed to our partners as well as our customers," Mr. Mouzouris said, "and with better, faster and more responsive technology at our fingertips, we will have the insight to bring more value to them more quickly."
