In 2001, VRT launched an initiative to enhance and integrate the information provision in order to do more with the same number of employees. The broadcaster implemented a new ERP SAP solution, but the system was not able to meet all of the business requirements. As a result, it has recently incorporated Quintiq software for staff and resource planning.
The Quintiq system enables standardized resource planning; eases last minute changes during fast-breaking news events; and permits planners to log in from remote locations. Another reason for the Quintiq implementation was to streamline competency management.
