Moto, the UK‘s market leader service
company for freeway/motorway travelers have selected Microsoft
Dynamics AX and LS Retail as their strategic ERP solution for more
than 50 hybrid catering/retail/forecourt sites.
Moto have chosen Capgemini, LS Retail’s
business partner, to design, plan and implement their Dynamics AX
ERP solution.
The final two products under
consideration were SAP Retail and Dynamics AX with LS Retail.
‘We are being asked to advise on
suitable alternatives to the historic ERP solutions, based around
total cost of ownership and flexibility. Dynamics AX 4.0 is ideal
for this because it provides a flexible platform, which adapts to
the changing requirements of our clients own business processes. And
we saw this recently in a recent win with an organization called
Moto, who are the market leader, and the largest provider of
motorway services in the UK, and they've recently -- and this was in
the last three weeks -- selected Dynamics AX and LS Retail as their
strategic platform of choice for over 50 hybrid sites in the UK.
This is a large scale implementation.’, said Simon Thomason: Vice
President, Microsoft Business Unit, Capgemini at the Dynamics AX 4.0
launch in Boston, Massachusetts, July 2006, which included launch
remarks by Steve Ballmer: Chief Executive Officer, Microsoft
Corporation, Satya Nadella, Corporate Vice President, Microsoft
Business Solutions and Greg Lush, Chief Information Officer, The
Linc Group.
He continued: ‘...and we win those
kinds of opportunities together not because we massively undercut on
price, and not because we take a classic cookie cutter approach or a
template approach. We win because we provide an innovative and
flexible solution..”
Ingvar Kristinsson, MD LS Retail
