Egyptian Government selects SAP as strategic IT provider  
3rd December 2007
The Egyptian government has selected SAP as its strategic IT provider for enterprise resource planning (ERP) software. Central to the development of Egypt's growing communication and information technology (CIT) sector, a comprehensive memorandum of understanding binds the two parties to a multi-million dollar five-year agreement beginning 2008 and a four-year deal with Egyptian National Postal Organization (ENPO).

SAP will help Egyptian National Postal Organisation increase efficiency through the automation and standardisation of administrative processes and procedures, and the timely provision of necessary information and data. The government of Egypt will begin its SAP implementation through the acquisition of critical SAP applications for ENPO, including SAP ERP and SAP ERP Human Capital Management, SAP for Public Sector, SAP for Travel & Logistics Services (postal services) and SAP for Banking .

ENPO and SAP MENA (SAP Middle East & North Africa) plan to establish a SAP customer support centre in Egypt aimed at transferring SAP knowledge and expertise to support the growth of the Egyptian IT industry.

“The effective deployment of information technology remains essential to the Egyptian government's national development strategy, as the CIT sector continues to contribute significantly to economic growth and job creation,” said H.E. Dr. Tarek Kamel , Egypt 's Minister for Communications and Information and Technology. “By joining forces with a technology leader like SAP, the Egyptian government is enhancing competitiveness and economic opportunities.”
