Functionalities

Several SAP PM functionalities were transferred to the application, allowing access to any location of the company, even in situations where there is no ON-Line connection, since one of the main advantages of the application is to allow working offline.

Screen – SAN Mobile Menu

Through SAN Mobile, the company gains speed in accessing information, allowing the Maintenance Technician to access various information such as: Notes, Orders, Equipment, Installation Locations, Characteristics, Warranties, Measurement Documents, Confirmation of Individual and Collective Hours, in addition to to be able to create and view Attachments.

The idea is to add more functionality, in a practical and simple way, always looking for a value-added product that can really enhance the functionality of SAP PM.

Nalbatech – Integration and automation with SAP

Francisco Bernabeu, our CEO, talks about the solution that allows integration with SAP with spreadsheets, email, Outlook, SharePoint and legacy systems in such a way that processes that use SAP behind the scenes, respecting all business rules and security attributes, bring great productivity and allow to use SAP without complex customizations, which make updates difficult, using instead these other mentioned front ends.

 

 

Automatização - Nalbatech

To better take advantage of technology, managed services

In an Ping-Pong interview for IT Portal, our CEO Francisco Bernabeu, spoke about managed services.

With 35 years in the technology market, Francisco Bernabeu leads NalbaTech, a company that was born 5 years ago to offer technological solutions with high added value. The company’s focus is on offering managed services, which, in the executive’s evaluation, facilitates the implementation, execution, support and updating of versions, freeing the teams of the user companies for their final activities.

“All technologies, as long as they are in creative business models, such as managed services, are much more likely to succeed,” he says. “Today, companies have lean teams and little capacity to manage a multitude of services and technologies. Our idea is to be the support point for organizations to overcome this challenge ”.

The company recently acquired the bugScout platform, created by the Spanish company Buguroo Offensive Security, of which it has been a partner for more than 4 years to offer, implement and support the security risk detection solution throughout the life cycle of software applications. With this deal, the company strengthened its offer of managed services, a portfolio that includes other products: Innoware (which allows execution and integration of processes in SAP), Zadara Storage (data storage) and Tibero (database manager) . All solutions provided as a service and managed.

The company’s expectation is to earn R $ 20 million in the next 3 years. To this end, it is investing EUR 1.5 million in improving services and training technical and sales teams.

IT Portal – You touched on a key issue for our Ping Pong: staff training. What is your assessment of Brazil in this area?

Francisco Bernabeu – Companies are looking for ready professionals. This does not actually work. Regardless of the training of professionals, you need to adapt and train according to the company’s profile. There are no ready professionals, regardless of the person’s country of origin or the country where he graduated.

IT Portal – How does NalbaTech promote the training of its teams?

Francisco Bernabeu – Our employees constantly perform their tasks internally, for example, before installing a bugscout appliance, our technicians are guided to test at home, that is, here at Nalbatech. This causes errors to be minimized at the end customer. Another important point is to bring software engineers from the manufacturer itself to Brazil, to work together with our employees and thus absorb their knowledge.

IT Portal – The IT market demands a lot from people. How is Francisco Bernabeu out of the workplace?

Francisco Bernabeu – I’m in love with Harley Davidson. I bought my first motorcycle at the age of 50 and it was simply a lifestyle and not the acquisition of a product. I realized a dream that was to buy a Harley to travel and live with great friends. I am currently part of the H.O.G. from Harley Davidson.

IT Portal – If you could change the world, what would you change?

Francisco Bernabeu – A world made by friendships and without interests. Free from violence.

IT Portal – mounted on a Harley Davidson, I imagine.

Francisco Bernabeu – definitely yes

Sabesp adopts Innowera with Nalbatech

Sabesp, one of the largest basic sanitation companies in the world, hired NalbaTech with the objective of promoting improvements in data management in SAP ERP. For the project, the Innowera platform was implemented, designed to map, update and integrate data from different sources.

Sabesp’s objective was to have a comprehensive solution to make improvements and new features in data management in ERP without the need for major investments in development and customizations in the SAP system.

Preparing for eSocial was the first stage of the project and involved cleaning up the data of more than 17 thousand company employees.

In January 2018, the second stage began, involving immobilization.

Based on the ability of the Innowera tool to sanitize and manage data with management systems and the proximity of the eSocial effective date, Sabesp opted to start by treating and preparing employees’ social security and labor information.

“We put the platform to use very quickly and found that 41% of employees had some inconsistency in their registration, which could have a major impact on the material to be sent to eSocial, which could generate considerable delays and fines,” says Carvalheiro.

The Innowera tool also allowed the construction of macros in MS-Excel to facilitate the correction and adaptation of employee data for reloading in SAP.

“Activities that would take several months were carried out in a few days. As a result, we had a significant reduction in costs and time ”, points out Carvalheiro.

Sanitation and data comparison, pointing out errors for correction according to the rules and layout of e-Social (which has about 200 fields for each employee), as well as for any other legal and business obligations, are among the biggest benefits , according to him.

Sabesp serves 367 municipalities in the State of São Paulo, benefiting more than 27.7 million people with water supply and 21.4 million people with sewage collection.

Earlier this month, the company announced another project developed with support from Nalbatech.

Sabesb contracted the company’s managed services to detect vulnerabilities and security flaws in software applications during its own or third party application development. The initiative focuses on the use of the BugScout platform.

Sabesp promotes improvements in SAP data management with support from Nalbatech

eSocial is the first project and will guarantee the quality of the information to be delivered within the legal deadline. Data for 41% of employees with record inconsistencies were corrected in record time

Sabesp, one of the largest basic sanitation companies in the world, serving 367 municipalities in the State of São Paulo, benefiting more than 27.7 million people with water supply and 21.4 million people with sewage collection, contracted NalbaTech to promote improvements in data management in the SAP management system, from the implementation of the Innowera platform, designed for mapping, updating and integrating data from different sources and with a strong specialization in SAP.

The choice of the Innowera tool meets a need by Sabesp, which sought a comprehensive solution to make improvements and new features in data management in the management system, without the need for major investments in ERP development and customization. Nalbatech was selected for the project because it has a team of specialists in the Innowera solution and with a high capacity to understand the company’s needs related to the extraction, sanitation, preparation and import of data from various sources into SAP.

The second stage will involve the immobilization of assets and will start in January 2018, as informed by Ricardo Carvalheiro, manager of the Information Systems Department (CIS) at Sabesp.

Data sanitation for eSocial

Based on the high capacity of the Innowera tool to sanitize and manage data with management systems and the proximity of the eSocial entry into force date, Sabesp chose to start by treating and preparing employees’ social security and labor information. “We put the platform to use very quickly and found that 41% of employees had some inconsistency in their registration, which could have a major impact on the material to be sent to eSocial, which could generate considerable delays and fines,” says Carvalheiro.

According to him, “carried out in a few weeks, this work for eSocial was a great success, both because of the fast time and the results. The Innowera tool also allowed the construction of macros in MS-Excel to facilitate the correction and adequacy of employee data for reloading in SAP, greatly reducing the working time of Human Resources teams. Activities that would take several months were carried out in a few days. As a result, we had a significant reduction in costs and time ”, points out Carvalheiro.

In addition, with the expertise and experience of the NalbaTech team, it was possible to solve complex problems, by mapping needs and delivering a project very quickly ”, comments Sabesp’s CIS manager.

SAP Security Rules

Another factor that weighed in the choice of the Innowera solution, according to Carvalheiro, was the platform’s specialization in the SAP environment, its ability to meet the security rules of the management system, such as consistencies and access profiles, for example. “This guarantees the safe execution of the processes and reduces the need to replicate these rules outside the ERP. The solution eliminated the manipulation and maintenance of data carried out manually by users, which led to error-prone processes and exhaustive tasks, in addition to affecting the security and quality of the data ”.

Another great benefit obtained: better decision making

Osvaldo Antonio Pazianotto, CIO of Sabesp, comments that, as desired, the Innowera solution proved to be quite adherent to Sabesp’s business processes, delivering many benefits and, mainly, avoiding customizations and developments in the SAP ERP platform, which are complex and have high cost.

“Decision making is also benefited by the possibility of approving forms in real time directly on cell phones and e-mail, and reports obtained via extraction and connection between tables mapped within SAP make it easier to meet demand in record time. The benefits with Innowera and support from NalbaTech, are enormous. It is now possible to carry out more careful and analytical analysis of business information ”, he adds.

Nalbatech is Gold Sponsor of the Data Innovation 2018 event

Nalbatech is present at Data Innovation, which promotes a meeting designed for innovators and instigators of change in the area of Information Technology.

The world is hyperconnected. The proof of this is that a recent study by the Business Software Alliance (BSA) showed that2.5 quintillion bytes are created every day and that, 90% of the data that exists today, in the world, was generated in the last two years. The trend is that, every two years, the world will double the rate of production of this data.

And today was the day of our CE, Francisco Bernabeu, to speak with Case Sabesp, building applications using RPA in SAP.

Nalbatech announces Managed Services for SAP Process Automation

Nalbatech, a company of the Nfq Group, specialized in consulting technologies for banks, capital markets and insurance, announces the offer of managed services in data management projects in the SAP environment and that involves the mapping, migration, updating and integration of data from diverse origins, without the need for ABAP development. The focus is to promote improvements and new features in the system to meet the management of processes for eSocial, Payroll, Inventory and Fixed Assets and Accounting. The Innowera platform is the basic tool for delivering projects.

According to Francisco Bernabeu, director of Nalbatech, the company has a team of certified professionals in Innowera to take care of all phases of each project, including integration with legacy systems and components external to SAP.

“Our managed services allow you to automate the maintenance and migration of data to SAP systems, without the need to write any line of code and from various data sources, such as Tibero, SAP Hana, Microsoft Excel, SQL, Oracle, Sybase, DB2, Access, SharePoint etc. Our team will take care of all these processes, freeing the IT teams and SAP users of the companies for their priority activities ”, says the executive.

For the director of Nalbatech, the managed services of process automation in SAP present themselves with great competitive attraction because they dispense with the need for ABAP programming, which is the SAP programming language, and, in many cases, a bottleneck for companies, who need to invest in qualified personnel and have a lot of time for their projects. “By eliminating the programming of Z tables in the system and the need to work with SAP, companies using SAP obtain enormous savings in time and deadlines in all business processes. We have cases, for example, where there has been a reduction of more than 40% in the time foreseen for preparing for eSocial ”, he comments.

Nalbatech’s managed services follow the technological evolution required for business and the solutions are offered in SaaS models, both in the cloud and on-premise. “This model guarantees high availability, scalability, elasticity, secure integration with the client’s current infrastructure and investments that are adaptable to the client’s needs and capabilities”, explains the executive.
