The Automated System of Mobile Trade in Napoleon in fall of 2012 had one more large-scale user – Russian Meat Products holding. In 2012 ASMT "Napoleon" was implemented in all divisions of RMP holding – "Siberian Food Company" (Novosibirsk), "The Krasnoyarsk food company" (Krasnoyarsk), RMP — Irkutsk trading house (Irkutsk) and RMP — Barnaul trading house (Barnaul).

For "The Russian meat products" the Napoleon system was implemented in two options. The application serves in basic option for collecting of requests, a design of return of products, control of debts of clients, merchandising, questioning and the photopresentation of products. Also it automates some other actions and processes: tracking of movements of sales representatives in all territory of responsibility and correction of their routes; drawing up reports at the different levels of works, including at the request of mobile users, etc.

In expanded option the application, in addition to all listed functions, allows not only to send preliminary applications for a warehouse, but also to perform sales "from wheels" – i.e. the sales representative on the car can carry a quantity of products and transfer him to outlets immediately, printing on site all primary accounting documentation.

Tablets based on OS Android, capable to replace paper prices, prezenter and cell phones for communication became the main hardware of the project.

ASMT "Napoleon" is not the first complex of applications for mobile trade which the sales department of holding used. The company already had an experience with the 1C: Enterprise application for pocket computers. Engineers of "RMP" finished the application under needs of the enterprise, but faced a number of difficulties. First, the platform did not maintain such functionality which would cover 100% of requirements. Secondly, expansion was insufficiently reliable, performance program and there was not enough hardware, often there were failures for various reasons. Thirdly, the modifed application was not too convenient in use. Fourthly, the application began to lose relevance naturally as PDA on the outdated Windows Mobile system are everywhere forced out by devices based on OS Android now. The Russian Meat Products company announced the tender for development and deployment of a complex of applications for mobile trade which would have no listed shortcomings. In this tender all leading application developers for mobile trade took part in Russia. A choice for benefit of ASMT "Napoleon" was made for the following reasons:

  • Implementation of all necessary functionality, including for the solution of a set of non-standard tasks; running forward – this uncommon functionality was created and at the moment in Russia is unique.
  • High stability of work of the solution and indiscriminateness to service lives. It allowed to reduce significantly the number of addresses to technical support service of holding and to provide comfort of work to sales representatives.
  • Project cost as a result was lower, than the stated cost of products of competitors that, naturally, became great advantage in the opinion of customers.

After a pilot project the software package was once again finished taking into account the wishes of customers which appeared during test operation. Completion of a system was carried out by the contractor to the stated terms.

Development of the version of a software package for Russian Meat Products was performed by Guild of Developers company (Yaroslavl). Implementation of a software package was executed by MT-Proyekty company (Novosibirsk), the leading partner of Guild of Developers in Siberian Federal District. In plans of Russian Meat Products company – to continue development of the project quickly to provide all again arising requirements of the sales department.
