GULFPORT, Miss. - November 05, 2007 - SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) today announced that Roy Anderson Corp (RAC), one of the premier construction firms servicing the Southeastern United States, has selected SAP’s industry-specific solution portfolio SAP® for Engineering, Construction & Operations (SAP for EC&O). RAC considered several other solutions from vendors such as Oracle and Timberline, but determined SAP was best able to meet its needs for improved management of construction projects, optimization of data integrity and support for the company’s growth plan.

RAC decided to replace its existing IT architecture, comprised of a construction management system by CGC, with a comprehensive technology platform based on SAP® solutions to address several business issues, including siloed information and integrating systems from acquired businesses. In 2006, RAC employed more than 500 full-time employees and thousands of sub-contract employees working on notable construction projects, including the Harrah’s Grand Casino in Biloxi, Mississippi and The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Biloxi, Mississippi.

“The level of visibility SAP provides across all levels of our organization is a critical driver for improving RAC’s top and bottom line,” said Bill Ponseti, CIO, RAC. “Increasing efficiencies and eliminating roadblocks for future growth – particularly in analyzing job scope and costs and automating manual reporting, HR, payroll and other process – is paramount for RAC.”
