Access IT
Announces
contractERP™ -
small business
Small
Business Edition
provides the
same
functionality
for the
architectural
openings
industry at a
significant
savings.
MELVILLE, NY
— April 3, 2006
- Access IT, a
Microsoft Gold
Certified
Partner,
announced today
the release of
contractERP™ –
small business.
Instead of
removing
functionality
and providing
less of a
solution to the
small
distributor,
Access IT has
partnered with
Microsoft to
provide a lower
price point for
the same
functionality.
contractERP™ –
small business
delivers a fully
realized
Business
Accounting
solution built
on the Microsoft
Dynamics - NAV
platform.
Building on that
solution, Access
IT has created a
complete
contract
management and
fulfillment
solution
specific to the
architectural
openings
industry.
Beginning with a
direct import
from industry
standard bidding
and detailing
systems to the
final change
order and
contract
payment,
contractERP
manages the
entire contract
fulfillment
process, in a
robust yet easy
to use solution.
“contractERP has
been
successfully
implemented in
mid to large
sized
distributors
throughout North
America. With
the release of
our small
business
package, the
small
distributor, who
has been the
backbone of this
industry, will
receive the same
business
automation
benefits at a
price point
affordable to
their size
company,” said
Allyn Vineberg,
President & CEO
of Access IT.
Small
distributors may
have fewer
employees, but
they experience
the same
business
management
challenges
notorious to
this industry.
The new small
business package
of contractERP™
offers the same
functionality
and efficiencies
gained in the
enterprise
version, but in
a package that
provides a lower
price point for
the growing
distributor. The
small business
package is
defined by the
number of
concurrent users
– the maximum
for this package
is ten.
Smaller
distributors are
especially
challenged by
the investment
that a complex
ERP
implementation
can involve.
Access IT has
taken it’s
twenty years
experience
implementing
business
management
accounting
solutions and
created an
implementation
model that will
provide a
pre-configured,
rapid roll-out
of contractERP™.
“As a result of
over twelve
years of
hands-on
experience
helping our
clients improve
their business
processes in
this highly
complex and data
intense
industry,
combined with
the maturity of
our detailing
software
partnerships, we
felt confident
in our ability
to package a
rapid
implementation
model around our
proven software
solution,” said
Bill Natalie,
Sr. Vice
President of
Access IT.
“Whether a
distributor is
managing 50
openings or 500,
the business
requirements are
the same.
contractERP™ –
small business
will give the
growing
distributor the
very same
toolset
available to the
largest
distributors in
the industry and
allow them to
achieve the same
efficiencies and
profitability.”
contractERP™ –
small business
will initially
be available in
two versions,
serving users of
EDSS’ ProTech
and users of
Avaware’s
estimating and
detailing
system.
