Specialized SAP Services

When the specific need is for a consultancy company ready to provide a specialized SAP FI, CO, SD and MM localization service for Mexico we can help. We usually provide business definitions, customizing, manuals, ABAP Functional Specifications, ABAP code, Basis and PI Services, Testing, Training, and Support needed for specific MX and LATAM localization, including the tax compliance.

We have experience with branches in MEXICO, PERU, COLOMBIA and ARGENTINA.

The local branch has local MX or LATAM employees that will use the system. As the system is usually customized in English, the consultants assigned must have a complete knowledge of the English language, including the full knowledge of the technical and functional language needed to interact with the team in HQ.

Also, is imperative that the provider has consultants with specific business and tax knowledge, not only SAP Knowledge, to detect any anomalies, and explain to the Mexican or LATAM employees the logic behind SAP, and how they now report to the local Tax Authorities. We have those consultants
