All of the founding members have over 15 years of SAP experience and more than 10 years of IS-U project experience, and have proven themselves in numerous successful complete IS-U launches, in a variety of key positions. They all participate actively in the project work, so as to personally guarantee the high professional standards of the work performed.

In addition to the system integration work performed in the utilities sector, we also contribute to our clients’ success with management consulting. The company also provides SAP implementation services in the banking, telecommunications and pharmaceutical sectors, and has considerable logistics expertise.

SysArtist was established as a centre of professional excellence. We place great emphasis on facilitating the professional development of our employees, and consider it especially important to make the most of the opportunities inherent in teamwork. The company’s employees are all senior consultants with a successful track record in SAP consulting/development stretching back over at least eight years, and most of them also have several years of IS-U experience. This background is what guarantees our ability to serve our clients’ needs to their complete satisfaction.
