Customer Testimonials

"For E.ON Benelux, custom development was not an option because it leaves too many
factors out of our control. Our corporate IT policy only allowed us to work with companies
that are certified by both SAP and Primavera, and Impress is the only solution that met our
needs. With the packaged integration application we were assured of a quick deployment
and guaranteed results."

> Maintenance Manager, E.ON Benelux


"Streamlining of all information systems used by the maintenance organization and adapting them to the current organization and processes is part of an overall efficiency improvement project with an objective of reducing 10% of maintenance operations costs. Having a centralized maintenance planning tool with robust interface to SAP PM to schedule our internal personnel as well as contractors is a key element in achieving the anticipated savings in maintenance operations. Within a very short implementation timeframe, Impress delivered a solid integration solution, which plays a vital role in our new daily maintenance processes."

"The integration of enterprise resource planning (ERP) back office systems with spatial technology has long been a goal of many utilities. But a number of variables have made integration difficult to achieve and expensive to maintain. The work by Impress to bring together ArcFM and SAP offers utilities and other enterprises a great head start towards an affordable and sustainable solution."
> Jeff Meyers, President, Miner & Miner


"Program Managers and Contractors require data to be consistent between ARDEC's SAP back-office system and Microsoft Project. We selected Impress' packaged integration application to ensure that the data between these two systems are synchronized in an accurate, timely and trusted manner.
>Glen Berg, Competency Director for the Project Integration Office, Armament Systems Integration Center


"I started to see challenges with integrating Primavera and SAP around 1999, when a lot of people were struggling to get their systems to work together and weren't doing a very good job of it. After leaving the industry for a few years, I came back and learned about Impress. The fact that Impress is endorsed by both SAP and Primavera is invaluable and solves a lot of problems."
> George Broman, Principal Project Manager for SAP, Framatome ANP


"As a utility, our mapping system is an important part of our business, and with most of our data being stored in SAP, we needed to find a robust and proven integration solution. After evaluating alternatives, we determined that Impress for GIS was the right solution to enable the seamless integration. We expect to recoup our investment in about one year by dramatically lowering operation costs, decreasing service times and increasing overall efficiency.
