Nuqul Group, the leading Jordan based industrial and commercial conglomerate that is renowned for its 'Fine' branded paper goods, chose Scala's state-of-the-art iScala 2.1 solution for its Modal operation as a tool to raise the efficiency and effectiveness at Modal in order to meet market demands and challenges.

"With iScala 2.1 - the world's first purpose-built Collaborative ERP platform - the forward-thinking Modal can now begin genuine collaboration with its subsidiaries, customers, partners and suppliers," said Ziad Aqrabawi, Regional Managing Director, Scala ECE Middle East Ltd.

"iScala 2.1 represented a sound solution, backed by Scala Middle East's strong commitment to complete the project successfully, on budget and on time," said Nuqul Group ERP Project Manager Maher Hajarat. "As part of Nuqul Group, one of the core values of Modal is to provide its employees with sound information systems, enabling them to meet the challenges of the market place, and to provide customers with the finest quality products and services," said Hajarat.

"We are keen to ensure that all our businesses are streamlined such that we can achieve effective communication channels that will optimise the efficiency of the Group," said Hajarat.

Implementation of the solution is being undertaken by Scala Middle East's Jordanian partner, Business Consult.

Hani Saadi, Managing Director of Business Consult, said: "Nuqul Group is a leading regional industrial conglomerate and is renowned across the Middle East for excellence, quality, and innovation, so their choice of the iScala 2.1 business server is a perfect fit. We will be installing the complete package for Modal, and have already held some introductory seminars."

An integral part of the implementation will be staff training. Initially, the software will be used by staff in the financial, logistics and manufacturing divisions.

Business Consult, Scala's Jordan partner since 2001, will also provide full support services in Arabic and English.

Nuqul Group comprises 27 regional and global companies, bringing together 5,500 employees, and exports its products to over 45 markets worldwide.

iScala 2.1 is the first commercially-available version of Scala's next-generation software. It is the only purpose-built packaged ERP system on the market that enables genuine collaboration between a company's subsidiaries and divisions, wherever they are located, or with a company's customers, partners, and suppliers.

The platform is designed specifically for online collaboration, enabling companies to automate and manage business processes between sites. It provides a complete e-business foundation, as well as additional security, scalability, and flexibility to handle change, whatever it may be.
iScala is more than a product, it's a new way of working. It is the platform for a collaborative future, where businesses can connect processes at any point in a seamless matrix.
