Magic Software Enterprises Ltd. (NASDAQ and TASE: MGIC), a global provider of software platforms for enterprise mobility, cloud Relevant Products/Services applications, and business integration, announced today that AA Shipping LTD and its Royal Cargo tax division deployed a customized ERP system based on the Magic xpa Application Platform. Developed by Titan Systems, the customized system manages the group’s entire freight forwarding activities from booking through customs to operations and finance.

AA Shipping and Royal Cargo wanted a system to fully automate all internal processes required to manage their freight forwarding business, including customs clearance and taxes imposed by the government at the Israeli ports of Haifa, Ashdod, Tel Aviv and Ben Gurion International Airport. Titan answered their need by customizing their existing Magic-based 4Trade ERP system to include an interface with the Israeli Tax Authority’s “Gateway to the World” application for customs and tax compliance along with customized interdepartmental application flows and reporting capabilities.

"We needed an automated system that would enable us to provide added value to our customers and our business. Titan was able to quickly customize their 4Trade system to meet our demanding requirements,” states Ephraim Tzuk, CEO of Royal Cargo. “By optimizing our processes, this new system enables us to speed up services to our customers, reduce administrative costs, and allow everyone to focus more attention and resources on their core activities."

"We are excited about Titan’s successful ERP project. The fact that 4Trade was developed with Magic’s powerful and flexible application platform enabled Titan to quickly customize the system to meet AA Shipping and Royal Cargo’s specific requirements,” said Arik Mifano, Managing Director of Magic Israel. “Titan is one of over 3000 Magic partners using Magic’s rapid cross-platform development tool to build off-the-shelf desktop and mobile applications with a single skill set. Magic xpa’s ease of use and rich development capabilities enables our customers to focus on their core activities, giving them a competitive edge in the different vertical markets they serve.”

Under the terms of the deal, Magic Israel and Titan Systems will provide AA Shipping and Royal Cargo with maintenance and support services for the system for 10 years.
