Business Challenges

Client’s US operations were using an outdated legacy system, which caused reporting to be manual and cumbersome across its current Dynamics GP system. Inventory also lacked accuracy and the sales orders were slow to process.

Client needed to successfully copy the same framework of Dynamics GP that was being used for its operations in Canada, tailor the functionality to various operations in the U.S. and deploy it within a 6 month timeframe across 6 different locations in the US.

Client Testimonial

“The Calsoft team was great to work with. Everyone was extremely dedicated to the project — their team worked with us night and day whereas previous vendors would go home in the evening and leave us to deal with things on our own until morning. The Calsoft team was willing to do anything required to make the project a success.”
