Microsoft Dynamics GP Case Studies and Great Plains Success Stories
Support Services of America, Inc:
Support Services of America is a leading provider of janitorial, environmental, and maintenance services to the Retail, Commercial, and Government sectors. Quick Books, their current accounting software, could no longer support the database performance or robust features they needed to match their fast paced growth. Management had no visibility of which stores were profitable and did not have access to timely reporting. Support Services of America sought an enterprise solution that would give them financial and operational controls, had unified reporting, and was scalable.
Ignify deployed Microsoft Dynamics GP that provided the ability to track project costs and profits by store, delivered intelligent and timely reporting, provided granular financial controls such as budget and profit analysis, and improved overall business performance. Management has saved over 100 manual hours a month by having timely reporting right at their fingertips which allows them to focus on higher value add activities critical for business growth.
Bidz.com is a publicly held online auctioneer specializing in jewelry, fine art, and collectibles. Bidz.com offers live auctions on its website 24 hours a day, seven days a week through a highly entertaining online interactive auction format. In order to meet Sarbanese-Oxley (SOX) section 404 compliance deadline, required by the SEC, Bidz.com needed to migrate from Quick Books to a more robust, feature rich ERP solution. Bidz.com identified Microsoft Dynamics GP as the ERP system and selected Ignify, Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, to expedite SOX compliance and gain more financial control.
Previously, Bidz.com had no visibility of changes being made during the accounting transaction process. Ignify implemented Microsoft Dynamics GP Financials to give access to audit trails, business alerts, smart lists, have role based security, and other drill down capabilities. In less than six months, Ignify deployed the infrastructure and systems required to achieve SOX compliance and positioned Bidz.com for future scalability and growth.
3M Medical Sales Division: Ignify eCommerce Integration with Microsoft Dynamics GP
3M Medical Sales Division provides wound care management products and services to medical professionals through a global sales force. 3M was using a telemarketing team to take phone orders from over 800 sales people which was inefficient, prolonged the order management cycle, and provided no visibility to salespeople on order status. Minnesota Diversified Industries, 3M’s fulfilment and packaging partner, sought a more cost-effective and automated method for 3M salespeople to place orders, and incorporate intelligent reporting for its management.
To automate order entry and lower costs, Minnesota Diversified Industries implemented Ignify eCommerce, with its bidirectional integration adapter for Microsoft Dynamics GP. The implementation was completed in less than 4 months and has provided 3M medical salespeople with a Business to Business, easy to use, online ordering portal. Ignify ecommerce’s ability to provide zero touch order processing has reduced 3M’s order shipment time by more than 50% and empowered the sales people with access to real time inventory, and provided intelligent reporting to 3M management.
