Partnership in the Mountains: How Trust and Expertise are Built for Major Corporate Projects?

Last week, we headed to the Eagle Mountains with our friends from KPMG Czech Republic, and it was exactly what we needed. Instead of formal boardrooms, we opted for hiking trails, open debates, and shared experiences. The goal was simple: to enhance collaboration, share know-how, and find practical, scalable solutions for our ongoing and planned SAP projects.

Unrushed conversations, laughter, a hike to Velká Deštná peak, a sauna, an evening quiz, local beer from Neratov, and a wealth of inspiration from the world of technology.

When Partnership is More Than a Word, It's Shared Responsibility

They say relationships require work. We wholeheartedly agree. This is doubly true in the IT world, where long-term projects demand trust, continuity, and transparent communication. In the Eagle Mountains, we created space to discuss what works, what to simplify, and where we can be faster in our decision-making. For us, a partnership with KPMG is not a transaction; it’s a shared responsibility for the quality and impact we deliver to our clients.

Marek Bartoš from our in-house AI division, coalbrain, which also supports external companies, showed us how agent-based AI can simplify daily work (and not just IT tasks). Petr Bečka reminded us that honest work with data is the foundation of everything. Then came the sauna, guitar, singing, and long debates that ended with the phrase, „We'll try this.“

Our only regret was that the volunteer day at the Neratov Special Primary School was canceled due to the weather. Our KPMG partners completed their work there—hats off to them. „We will join them on a rescheduled date; we don't want to miss the opportunity to do something useful,“ promises our CEO, Michal Uhlíř.

From Local Hills to Multinational Projects: A Vision Born in the Field

Our philosophy is simple: coalsoft is a small, agile company, but part of the strong coalfamily organization. Partnering with global players like KPMG, combined with our specialization in custom development, opens doors to the largest corporations.

Our expertise lies in our ability to connect digital innovation with stable, yet often rigid, enterprise environments. A typical example is our current project for a major client, for whom we are developing a tailor-made mobile HR application directly integrated with their extensive SAP information system. A project of this magnitude requires not only a deep understanding of SAP architecture but also a human touch and the ability to effectively manage a complex delivery.

The trust we build with partners like KPMG is directly reflected in the customer experience—allowing us to bring clients the best of both worlds: the flexibility of a smaller team with the expert backing of large corporations.

Heart in the Code, Feet on the Ground

We didn't come away from those days with medals or record tables. We came away with the feeling that we can rely on each other. That relationships aren't built in emails but through shared experiences. And that when there is trust and joy in the team, everything is easier.

Thank you, KPMG. For your time, openness, and friendship. And thanks to everyone at coalsoft for putting your heart into this. We look forward to many more shared kilometers, both in the mountains and in our projects.
