4PS continues growth in Italy with new partnership with Alterna

Growing together by joining forces 

By becoming a 4PS partner Alterna will add construction as a new target market. Previously Alterna’s main focus was on manufacturing, distribution, utilities, and fashion & retail. In the next months, the team at Alterna will be trained in our 4PS Construct solution and we will work jointly on optimizing the Italian localisation of our best-of-breed ERP solution. We are really excited to move forward in Italy with the help of Alterna and we are confident this new collaboration will be a great success. 

Building meaningful and sustainable relations in Italy 

Jan Nieuwenhuizen, Director Operations and International 4PS Group, explains: “We are delighted to welcome Alterna as a new and second 4PS partner in Italy. Together with Alterna, we can continue our growth in Italy and really focus on building meaningful and sustainable relations in the Italian construction industry. By joining forces with Alterna we are taking an important step to localize our software solution and to make it available as a SaaS solution, allowing us to optimally support the Italian Construction industry in the digitization of their business processes.” 

Erwin Kreijne, International Partner- and Sales Manager at 4PS Group, continues: “I am very proud to see Alterna join our International Partner Network. Together with our 6 other international partners amongst others Ireland, France, Sweden, Ukraine, and Georgia and our own 4PS subsidiaries in Belgium, Germany, and the UK, the cooperation with Alterna in Italy will ensure that 4PS will grow even faster internationally. I, therefore, look forward to successful cooperation with the Team of Alterna with great confidence.”

Supporting the Engineering and Construction industry on the path of innovation and digitalization

It represents for Alterna a new step forward in our go-to-market strategy focused on value propositions and vertical ERP based on the Microsoft Dynamics 365 platform. A real confirmation of closeness to the Engineering & Construction industry and to support the organizations on the paths of innovation and digitalization.
