A.G. Mauro
Selects Access
IT™ and
Microsoft
Navision for
Contract
Distributors to
Replace Its
Outdated
Business Systems
MELVILLE, NY - February
9, 2005 –
Access IT, an
elite Microsoft
Gold Certified
Business Partner
providing
Navision ERP
solutions with a
specific focus
in the specialty
building
products
industry,
announced today
that The A.G.
Mauro Company, a
leading
distributor of
architectural
doors, hardware
and hollow
metal, has
selected Access
IT to implement
Contract
Distribution for
Microsoft
Navision as its
next
enterprise-wide
business
management
software
solution.
After detailed
vendor and
software
evaluations,
A.G. Mauro
concluded that
Access IT and
Navision were
the perfect fit
for their
business.
“Contract
Distribution is
a tailored
business
management
solution for the
Door & Hardware
industry. Other
options we
considered would
have required
extensive
customization to
meet our
business needs,”
said Michael
Coelho, Vice
President of the
A.G. Mauro
Company. “We
were also
impressed with
and liked that
Access IT’s
solution was
tightly
integrated with
EDSS’s PRO-TECH
estimating &
detailing
solution.”
Access IT’s ten
years of
experience in
industrial
distribution,
specifically
with specialty
building product
distributors,
combines
cutting-edge
software
technology with
a team of highly
experienced
developers,
project
managers, and
consultants.
“We are pleased
to work with
A.G. Mauro,
reflective of
our on-going
commitment to
serving this
industry with
solutions that
improve
operational and
management
performance,”
said Bill
Natalie, Vice
President of
Access IT. “The
A.G. Mauro team
has now
completed the
first step in
the process -- a
company-wide
commitment to
fully
integrating the
software and
technology into
their business
processes.”
Coelho added,
“We are
expecting a huge
time savings and
return on
investment in
our purchasing
methods. Today
we have an
over-reliance on
a time-consuming
and inefficient
paper-based
system. Thirty
years ago A.G.
Mauro’s founders
relied on
automation to
achieve
efficiencies. We
feel the time is
right and Access
IT is providing
the right
solution to help
us lay the
foundation for
an important,
next step in
this evolution.”
