After a comprehensive review of its global IT requirements, IKEA has decided
that all its franchisees must adopt an IKEA standard IT platform. K3's retail
software operation based in Holland is already IKEA's software partner of
choice for 10 of its franchisees, with K3 having developed the IKEA Master
Version of Microsoft Dynamics for these countries. IKEA's decision to move
all remaining franchisees to a standard ERP system means the likely extension
of K3's retail software solution into new territories over the next 36 months.
