The SAP Polska Consulting Department is responsible for the implementation project, which will begin in January 2009. The productive start of the system is planned for the end of 2009. PKP CARGO is consistently pursuing its IT strategy, which assumes the implementation of integrated management systems in all key areas of the company.
– I am convinced that thanks to them, the management of our company will become more efficient and will help us strengthen our position as the largest freight carrier in Poland – said Wojciech Balczun, CEO of PKP Cargo.
This contract is a continuation of the cooperation between SAP Polska and PKP CARGO, which began in 2006. At that time, the company decided to entrust the SAP ERP Human Capital Management system with the HR and payroll management for 126,000 of its current and former employees. The system, which has been operational since January 2008, is the largest SAP HCM installation in Poland. Recently, during a one-month implementation project, a payroll system for 3,000 train drivers of PKP Przewozy Regionalne, also based on the SAP solution, was launched.
