A MULTINATIONAL Information Technology (IT) integrator is expected to invest over US$1 million in the development of SAP Business One Transportation Management software in Zambia.
Bluekey Seidor will develop professional skills training and software dubbed ‘SAP Business One Transportation Management’ and invest over US$1million in the next two years in the IT sector.
The software which will be launched on the Zambian market this week would create highly specialised jobs and provide a platform for companies to run more efficiently and effectively.
It will provide complete visibility into operational performance to monitor costs and optimise asset utilisation.
SAP Business One Transportation Management is a comprehensive solution that is designed to efficiently manage every aspect of transportation business.
Key benefits include; better control and insight over vehicle maintenance, increased profits through precise costing and streamlined processes, improved compliance management, improved control and management over drivers and improved journey management.
Bluekey Seidor is a member of the Seidor group of companies, a multinational IT integrator and systems provider with a wide portfolio of products and services covering consulting, infrastructure, implementation, development, maintenance and support.
They  offer skills and knowledge gained over many decades of dedication and commitment in the areas of business process management; specialising in business management solutions for  Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs).
The company has helped more than 300 enterprises across the continent run their businesses better.
Company director  Mupota Muchelemba said the company was investing in Zambia as it was a strategically located transportation and logistic hub in Southern Africa.
Mr Muchelemba said in an interview that the investment would improve the use of IT and make them more sustainable companies.
“The country will also benefit from the company’s intellectual property of a specific transportation and logistics software extension invented in Zambia to be exported to the rest of Africa.
SAP Business One is already disrupting the way traditional transportation and logistics works in Zambia and neighboring countries,” he said.
He said its customers were part of an efficient digital logistics network that uses modern e-commerce, ultimately making them more competitive in the region by reducing their operating costs, improving their safety record and increasing productivity.
Mr Muchelemba said, for businesses in this industry to maintain a competitive edge over new entrants, it has become standard to adopt integrated technologies to increase efficiency, streamline processes and better manage financials.
