Mobistar, the Belgian mobile telephone operator, began its activities in 1996. Based on the highest standards of GSM 2-Watt technology, from its launch, the Mobistar network covered 97% of the Belgian population. Mobistar's strategy has been entirely shaped by its wish to offer a service of the highest quality, which is easy-to-use, accessible and adapted to the specific needs of its customers.

Mobistar purchased the application FDC of Infor to fulfil the budgeting requirements of a rapidly growing company in a very competitive market. At installation, a complete application was built in a very short period of time (about 15 man-days) enabling the finance department to fulfil the first budget requirements. Since then, the system has grown into an application that, via automated links to the operational systems, provides monthly variance analyses by cost center for budgets, forecasts and actuals. Some 25 managers are now connected to the system and are able to run predefined reports or to build own reports.
