During the period from 2010 to 2015, VKG constructed new Petroter plants. Production was the priority, and IT support was secondary. Since the year 2000, BaaN IV was in use for financial management. The implementation of it had so many issues at the time that later, there was neither the desire nor the ability to carry out further developments or version upgrades.

At some point, the limited functionality began to be a hindrance. In Estonia, there were a lack of users and expertise, integration was not possible, and even exporting information to Excel was problematic. When the technical risk became apparent, it was clear that continuing in the same manner was not an option, and the decision was made to implement a new ERP.

We had enough experience from our previous situation to understand that the goal couldn't be just a new technical solution. We needed a platform that would provide the opportunity to redesign our work processes in the most efficient way possible.
