Known as “builder of the future”, the con­struc­tion group Sik­la designs and builds con­do­mini­um homes, nurs­ing homes, kinder­gartens, schools and busi­ness premis­es. The mis­sion of the entire Group is to pro­vide a bet­ter user expe­ri­ence and thus, the users of the premis­es are at the core of the company’s oper­a­tions. Sik­la Group has grown at a rapid pace; so fast that their busi­ness sys­tems have not kept up. There­fore, Sik­la start­ed look­ing for a mod­ern ERP solu­tion and a com­pe­tent part­ner for its deliv­ery. This builder of the future chose SAP’s cloud-based Busi­ness ByDe­sign solu­tion as their tech­nol­o­gy and ISLET Group as part­ner for implementation.

To sup­port our future growth, in 2019 we launched a Sus­tain­able Growth Project, where our goal is to make a big dig­i­tal leap to stream­line our oper­a­tions. Out of the many alter­na­tives we went through, we chose SAP’s cloud-based ERP solu­tion and part­nered with ISLET Group. ISLET radi­ates expe­ri­ence, pro­fes­sion­al­ism and pos­i­tive energy.

Janne Niem­i­nen

CEO, Sik­la Group

Sik­la’s new ERP solu­tion cov­ers human resources, finance, pur­chas­ing, sales, pro­duc­tion and project busi­ness areas. Sik­la’s goals for the ERP are knowl­edge man­age­ment and fact-based deci­sion-mak­ing at all lev­els of the orga­ni­za­tion, enabling growth in the future. In addi­tion, sched­ul­ing oper­a­tions and projects through the orga­ni­za­tion and process­es, as well as user-friend­li­ness, were at the heart of tech­nol­o­gy selection.

Our infor­ma­tion sys­tems no longer sup­port­ed our busi­ness. We had sev­er­al, part­ly over­lap­ping sys­tems in between which infor­ma­tion did not trans­fer. We start­ed look­ing for a com­pre­hen­sive, mod­ern, user-friend­ly and inte­gra­tive ERP solu­tion, as well as an expe­ri­enced part­ner to com­plete the project with.

IT Direc­tor, Sik­la Group

Sik­la chose ISLET Group as its part­ner because of its knowl­edge­able and enthu­si­as­tic team. Like Sik­la, also ISLET Group offers sus­tain­able solu­tions and par­tic­i­pates in build­ing the soci­ety of the future.
