IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROJECT SHARE IN RICOH EUROPE.
After a pilot project in the United Kingdom, the first countries to implement SHARE
are actively International RICOH, RICOH Austria, Germany and Switzerland RICOH.
These countries were chosen as the first batch, due to their complexity. Issues such as: Multi-languages \u200b\u200bin Switzerland, the local billing practices, etc. will allow the subsequent implementation and transition easier.
countries that are not in the first series have already started to inform its employees for the future implementation of the Share, while others including Italy, are still waiting for a unified communications strategy from the headquarters.
There is no doubt that SHARE will be the backbone for the Ricoh Family Group in the long run and its success will influence the way we do business globally as locally.
Which is why, will be critical, managing the process with the utmost attention to the retraining of all staff.
