PRESS RELEASE
CompuGROUP subsidiary systema enters contract in the million Euro range in Austria
Coblenz/Linz - September 28, 2007: CompuGROUP Holding AG, a leading European provider of eHealth solutions, reports another success in the hospital information system field: German company systema Human Information Systems GmbH is going to implement new, more efficient software solutions at eleven hospitals belonging to the biggest hospital holding in Upper Austria, Oberösterreichische Gesundheits- und Spitals-AG (gespag). The total volume of this project is more than seven million Euros.
With a market share of about 44 percent, gespag is clearly number one among Upper Austria's hospital holdings. Besides eight general hospitals, the company also runs two psychiatric clinics as well as a special clinic for women and children, covering 14 locations. gespag has more than 9,000 employees.
The recently started IT projects will enable the gespag-run hospitals to multiply their efficiency in pivotal fields of operation. The patient administration's transfer to SAP IS-H and migration of the existing workflow system mpa to that platform as well as onto the new modules for medical documentation comprise the largest part of the project's contract volume.
Furthermore, new modules will be integrated in the human resources, internal business management and service scheduling fields. Another project is going to realize the systema "on duty" service scheduling module's integration into SAP Human Resource Management (SAP HR), including particular specifications. In order to enable the cross-project visualization of results in SAP HR, a customized Business Warehouse will also be developed for gespag. Another project that could be won over in spite of strong, international competition was the adjustment of the kitchen logistics system. In addition to the introduction of the new kitchen solution, these modules will be deeply integrated in gespag's exisiting SAP environment.
"Our company's innovative software solutions, our longtime, successful cooperation with gespag plus our experience as the biggest Austrian partner for SAP implementation in healthcare were working in our favor regarding this new, big project. This decision proves that continuously delivered top-quality in the hospital sector results in lasting success," Willibald Salomon, director of systema, states.
"Once more, our Austrian colleagues did an excellent job. Based on state- of-the-art software products and on the highest level of customer service, systema will continue to be a reliable and successful partner in its support of hospitals and clinic franchises," emphasizes Frank Gotthardt, CEO of CompuGROUP Holding AG.
