Minton Door
Company Selects
contractERP™ as
their Next
Generation
Business
Software
Minton Door
knew right away
that contractERP™
would enhance
their existing
Microsoft
investment and
help move their
company forward.
MELVILLE, NY
—
September 7, 2005 -
Access IT, a
Microsoft Gold
Certified
Partner,
announced today
that Minton Door
Company of
Sunnyvale, CA
has selected
Access IT to
implement
contractERP™ to
enhance their
existing
Microsoft
Navision
investment.
contractERP™ is
a modular
business
software
application that
provides highly
specialized
functionality
for the
architectural
openings
industry and is
powered by the
Microsoft
Business
Solutions –
Navision
platform.
“We have been
very happy with
our investment
in Microsoft
Navision. It is
a proven
accounting
system that has
served our needs
well. We have
spent
significant time
customizing the
solution around
our business
needs, and have
been able to
make the system
work for us.
However, when we
saw what Access
IT and it’s
contractERP™
solution offered
us, we knew that
our Navision
solution could
take us much
further than we
realized,” said
Nancy Minton,
CFO of Minton
Door.
Access IT’s
contractERP™
vertical
solution,
provides
complete
business
automation for
specialty
building product
distributors
from contract
approval through
final delivery.
The application
eliminates
costly re-keying
of data within
the company via
a direct import
from industry
standard
detailing/estimating
software.
Further, the
solution will
streamline their
entire contract
fulfillment
process
including
special order
purchasing, shop
fabricated
material, phased
delivery of
material and
specific
accounting
processes common
to the industry.
“We are pleased
to be working
with Minton
Door. They have
a forward
thinking mindset
and have been
successfully
using Microsoft
Navision for
many years to
run their
business. We
know that
contractERP will
benefit their
company
significantly
and help move
them forward
both
technologically
and
operationally,”
said Bill
Natalie, Senior
Vice President
of Access IT.
“We have access
to a large pool
of talented
programmers here
in California
that we could
have utilized
for further
enhancements to
our system. The
customization
would have been
costly and not
have benefited
from a team who
knows our
business. Access
IT has worked
with so many
distributors in
our industry and
as a result have
developed
functionality in
areas that we
have never
thought of!”
added Minton. We
are expecting
that when the
system goes
live, we are
going to be
saying to
ourselves, ‘Wow,
I can’t believe
we can do this,”
and this wow
factor will help
us move our
business to the
next level.”
