More iCore integration at Atea

Atea have been using iCore Integration Suite as integration platform for many years. With staff who are iCore trained and highly-qualified, the integration architecture is continuously further developed in-house and adapted to new conditions.

Presently, a major work in progress is the task of replacing the old ERP system with MS Dynamics NAV. Since this is a big task, including a vast amount of integrations, it is performed stepwise. The project will continue during the autumn. The integration design at Atea is loosely coupled, in accordance with SOA principles. From an integration point of view, this considerably simplifies the ERP system exchange and the project has been running according to plan.

During the last year, Atea have also carried out a complete integration of Office 365, Microsoft's cloud based office collaboration software. This integration covers all business procedures, from Order to Payment.

"iCore Integration Suite has enabled us to build a loosely coupled integration structure, which is easy to develop and change. You could say that iCore is made for change and we all know that business conditions and IT infrastructure will develop over time. With iCore, adapting is simple and safe", says Jessica Gidlund, responsible for IT integration at Atea since 2006.
