Project highlights

Prior to their abas ERP implementation, NCS was working with a DOS system that they felt was limiting the company’s visibility into everyday operations. When an error came up, it was difficult to identify exactly what had gone wrong. The company needed to gain visibility into their everyday operations, and realized they needed a new ERP system.

During its due diligence process to find an ERP partner, abas stood out because it checked off nearly all of NCS’s requirements in the core feature list and also would be able to grow and adapt with the business, something that was particularly important with NCS’s plans for growth.

Now with abas, NCS has increased visibility into all of their data through graphs, charts and intuitive interfaces, meaning NCS workers can easily access the information they need when they need it. They also take advantage of the system’s integrated customer relationship management function to improve their customer relations and sales processes.
