The development of SAP Business One product for the organisations use had been stifled, and the company needed a more attentive SAP Business Partner. FUEL was interviewed and was cited as the chosen business partner who could provide the required ERP expertise and knowledge that would help Stryker realise the many business benefits and efficiencies of running an SAP Business One solution.
#02KEY BUSINESS BENEFITS
