Comarch and F.I.L.A. S.p.A. Expand Electronic Invoicing Collaboration Across Europe

In a significant move that enhances their long-standing partnership, Comarch and F.I.L.A. S.p.A., a well-known leader in the art, design, and coloring products sector, are expanding their electronic invoicing collaboration across Europe. This development follows the successful implementation of electronic invoicing in Italy in 2022 and marks a pivotal step in their journey towards deeper integration and digitalization of services.

Strengthening a Strategic Partnership

The collaboration between Comarch and F.I.L.A. dates back to 2019. Initially, it focused on the introduction of Comarch EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) and integration with F.I.L.A.'s SAP ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system. This integration facilitated effective resource management, preparing the groundwork for a sophisticated invoicing process. The recent agreement underscores a deep-rooted trust in the value and scalability of Comarch’s solutions, allowing F.I.L.A. to expand its use of Comarch E-Invoicing and E-Archive in a range of new European markets as regulatory demands evolve.

Expansion Plan and Compliance

The rollout of the electronic invoicing and archiving solution includes clear timelines for compliance across several key European countries. Specifically, F.I.L.A. plans to implement these services in:

• - Germany: Introducing both the sending and electronic storage of invoices.
• - France: Starting in 2026, which will include electronic reporting for two entities within the group.
• - Belgium: The solution is expected to go live in 2026, ensuring compliance with Peppol standards.
• - Spain: Project initiation is set for 2027, with a real-time verification system in place.

These meticulous planning and execution strategies not only ensure compliance but also enhance process efficiency, crucial for F.I.L.A.'s operations in complex markets like France, Belgium, Germany, and Spain.

Building a Future of Efficiency

According to Kamila Niekraszewicz, the country manager for Comarch Italy, this renewed partnership not only reassures F.I.L.A. of the efficiency and regulatory compliance of their processes but further cements Comarch's role as a strategic technology partner for globally operating companies. As they navigate increasingly complex market landscapes, the collaboration's potential for driving innovation and improving business processes is immense.

By adopting cutting-edge technologies and solutions, both companies are poised for success in their respective fields. Comarch’s continuous support will be integral in spearheading F.I.L.A.'s expansion into new European territories. As they delve deeper into this partnership, the focus remains on creating efficient, secure business process management solutions.

In conclusion, the collaboration between Comarch and F.I.L.A. S.p.A. is a clear example of how strategic partnerships can drive efficiency and innovation through technology. As regulations continue to evolve, their commitment to compliance and excellence will serve them well in their future endeavors.
