La Poste Relies on Axway Accounting ... - Arizona Venture Capital

?The French Post Office, La Poste, the second largest European postal operator, selected Axway (Paris:AXW)(NYSE Euronext: AXW.PA), the Business Interaction Networks company, and Axway Accounting Integration Suite to optimize its human resources (HR) and accounting information system. Axway solution enables the generation, interpretation, control and aggregation of wages and accounting operations for 250,000 staff members, and breaks them down by more than 300,000 analytical cost centers.

Keen to improve the standardized wage and accounting processes, and performance of its accounting information system, La Poste decided to optimize and give business users control over rules and business processes. Combining a powerful accounting rules engine with an intuitive interface, Axway Accounting Integration Suite improves, organizes and standardizes financial integration management to supply management and accounting systems with all required data.

?We needed to find a common solution for the different business units, to process transactions generated by the post office network, the mail delivery staff, and payroll for the postal workers,? said G?rald Brisebard, accounting director for mail at La Poste. ?By choosing Axway and moving to market standards, we have been able to greatly improve our performance and efficiency, from an accounting and a functional point of view, but also in terms of IT.?

Bringing business process requirements to the forefront

La Poste processes large volumes of data. Given ever increasing constraints, fast data processing is essential for generating accounting information and for financial management. La Poste needed a reliable technical solution suitable for the architecture of its information system and a business-oriented solution that allows users to define and manage their own business rules.

?Axway offers a very well balanced-solution with regard to how to optimize an information system, to industrialize the processing of large volumes of information, while restoring some control to the business users. Axway Accounting Integration Suite obviously meets all the technical requirements including performance, compliance, and security, but it is also very business-oriented and accessible by non-computer specialists,? said Mr. Brisebard.

Five key benefits

As a service producer, integrator and distributor, La Poste is the most diversified postal operator in Europe and is high ranked in all its areas of business. La Poste has 250,000 employees and a network of 17,000 points of sale that serve 1 billion customers annually and process 26 billion objects.

Axway Accounting Integration Suite enables La Poste to optimize its accounting information system and harness five key benefits:

• Improving business, functional, application and technical performance and processes
• Bringing flexibility and agility to the management of business rules and parameter setting to interpret financial data
• Returning to functional stakeholders a role in the definition and management of business rules and processes
• Implementing standards to replace legacy applications developed in-house and based on out-of-date technologies
• Reducing overall costs

?The use of Axway solutions follows our logic to increase speed, quality and security. We have improved the quality of our accounting and financial production, while increasing operational speed, lowering costs and improving efficiency on overall system management,? stated Mr. Brisebard. ?The acceleration of accounting and financial operations brings large-scale optimization to all the business processes.?

?La Poste?s use of Axway Accounting Integration Suite is a perfect example of its strategic value for large corporations, especially financial corporations, with its ability to convert and interpret tens of millions of transactions per day, while providing business users with guaranteed full control over their accounting and reporting schemes.? said Joe Fisher, executive vice president of product strategy and solutions, Axway. ?The result is increased reliability of financial information that complies with increasingly tight production deadlines and is intended for major accounting ERPs. Axway solutions continue to evolve to maintain this level of performance and integrate new market demands ? in particular, allowing business users to ensure compliance and have control over the accounting and financial integration system.?
