THE TRENTO HEADQUARTERS
The new legal headquarters is located on Via dei Viticoltori, surrounded by vineyards in the south of the city of Trento.
Built according to sustainability criteria, it meets present-day demands: environmentally compatible production aimed at constant quality improvement.
This is where the harvesting of grapes by the more than 400 contributing families and the vinification of raw material take place.
THE VOLANO PLANT
The Volano (TN) plant is dedicated to production and commercial management:
- refining;
- bottling;
- shipment of the finished product to national and foreign markets.
90% of the IT structure is located here.
The company also has external warehouses for storing sparkling wines and for container shipments to foreign countries.
The Project
In 1992, the winery began looking for a software house that could supply both hardware and software products to meet the needs of its management and sales staff, which at the time consisted of 80 agents in Italy and a number of foreign importers.
Thus began the historic collaboration between Cantina Sociale di Trento and Replica Sistemi.
"Choosing Replica Sistemi has allowed us to speak with a single interlocutor and provided greater flexibility by no longer being connected to an external service provider.
Every investment in these 30 years of collaboration has been preceded by a preparatory phase of internal analysis and an external phase with Replica Sistemi's technicians and systems engineers.This has enabled us to complete projects on time and achieve to the goals set in the various investments."
