Current Energy, a leading energy brokerage firm, was expanding rapidly into new lines of business and geographic areas. Their growing business needed the ability to handle intercompany transactions, manage multiple lines of business, and gain real-time insight into their business performance. Their QuickBooks financial solution could not provide this functionality causing them to spend too much time recording transactions manually on paper and reconciling account discrepancies—limiting their growth potential. Current Energy realized they needed an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to handle their growing needs. After evaluating several options, Current energy confidently chose Microsoft Dynamics GP because of the ease of implementation and its ability to integrate with Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System, which they used in their retail locations. Within a few months, Current Energy was up and running on Microsoft Dynamics GP eliminating their paper processes and greatly reducing the time it takes to manage their financial accounts. Now, with Microsoft Dynamics GP, closing their monthly financials takes two days instead of two weeks. |
Titan Fitness, an investment company that acquires and opens health clubs under the Gold’s Gym brand, plans to grow its chain to more than 60 stores over the next five years. Starting with five employees, they could rely on QuickBooks Online Edition, but in the company’s first two months of operation, it grew to hundreds of employees. Titan quickly realized they needed a solution that could handle rapid growth and be deployed quickly and cost effectively. After researching several business solutions, Titan decided that Microsoft Dynamics GP had the muscle they needed to accommodate their growing business needs. Microsoft Dynamics GP automated their purchase order processes, enhanced their financial reporting capabilities, and allowed them to easily share relevant business information with their investors. With its built-in functionality and the ability to integrate with their central data warehouse system, Titan Fitness can quickly roll out Microsoft Dynamics GP to newly acquired gyms while ensuring that critical information remains centralized—all at an affordable price. |
Corporate Managing SystemsCMS, a financial institution with 14 branch offices processing hundreds of daily transactions, lacked a centralized accounting solution. Each individual branch was using QuickBooks to maintain their own financial records—making company-level reporting virtually impossible. They needed a new comprehensive business management solution that could streamline operations at individual offices while providing enhanced consolidation, in-depth financial analysis, and internal security capabilities at the corporate level. Working with their Microsoft partner, CMS was able to make a smooth transition from QuickBooks to Microsoft Dynamics GP business management solutions in a short period of time, drastically improving their accounting operations, security, and efficiency across the entire operation. Monthly reporting to consolidate the data and produce a single monthly close report previously took 12 hours to complete, and now with Microsoft Dynamics GP takes just minutes. The integration capacity and extensibility of Microsoft Dynamics GP has allowed CMS to automate many of its core business functions, helping them to import transaction data from all of its locations directly into Microsoft Dynamics GP. Automating their accounting functionality with Microsoft Dynamics GP has saved CMS approximately US$300,000 per year. |
Erie Shipbuilding grew to command the largest dry dock on the Great Lakes within three years of entering the industry. During this time, they went from 50 to 150 employees. Initially they chose QuickBooks Enterprise to handle their basic accounting functions, but then found it could no longer provide the integration and insight they needed to handle the volume and complexity of their business. This was especially apparent in the area of payroll where correlating payroll information with project status was becoming daunting. As a result, they were unable to gather the insight needed into their productivity and profitability which was critical to their success. It was the seamless integration between Microsoft products and technologies that drove Erie Shipbuilding to choose Microsoft Dynamics GP. They needed a solution that offered a wide variety of functionality that could integrate across their operations, including finance, manufacturing, project accounting, human resources, and payroll. Since implementing Microsoft Dynamics GP, they can accurately estimate new projects, proactively keep projects within budget, and share business-critical information across all departments. This allowed them to make better informed decisions and reduced payroll management from four to two hours a day, saving approximately 500 manpower hours per year. |

Cowboy RedCowboy Red, an award-winning franchise owner of four Red Robin Gourmet Burger restaurants in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, was growing rapidly, with plans to expand their operations significantly in the near future. The only thing holding them back was their accounting solution. Initially they chose Peachtree accounting software to handle their basic accounting functions, but soon realized it could no longer provide the integration and reporting they needed to manage the complexity of their growing business. With Peachtree, tasks such as recording everyday cash sales and keeping track of supplier invoices were becoming complex and time consuming. Cowboy Red was also unable to produce consolidated reports that allowed them to measure the financial performance of all their restaurants, together or individually. This lack of functionality was now inhibiting their capacity to run their business effectively and to grow. Cowboy Red decided it was time for a change, and began the search for a new accounting solution that could meet their needs. Cowboy Red, along with Red Robin business decision makers, embarked on a thorough search, evaluating multiple accounting solutions. With its ability to easily integrate data from MenuLink (commercial restaurant software essential to their operations), robust out-of-the-box functionality, detailed reporting capability, and overall value, Microsoft Dynamics® GP business management solutions was the clear choice. Cowboy Red was able to make a smooth transition from Peachtree to Microsoft Dynamics GP very quickly. The results: a 20 percent increase in productivity, streamlined business processes, easy integration with industry software, and the ability to produce both consolidated and longevity reporting. With this increased efficiency and accuracy, Cowboy Red is now able to save their office staff multiple days of work per week and can open new restaurants without having to add more administrative overhead. And the ease of creating reports with Microsoft Dynamics GP now gives their managers more time to analyze financial data and act on discrepancies before they turn into larger problems. |
National Air Cargo, one of the largest and fastest-growing freight forwarding companies in the world, has always relied on technology to stay competitive. They began with just 3 employees and have grown to over 375 personnel in 9 countries, with more than 20 locations worldwide. Until recently, National Air Cargo relied on Peachtree accounting software to manage its accounting and financial reporting functions. However the system did not have the capacity to integrate with the company’s freight management system. This meant that employees had to manually reenter data to produce basic financial reports or update their general ledger. Due to this lack of integration, employees also had difficulty sharing information and working collaboratively. After several years of extraordinary growth, difficulties began to emerge from these issues, slowing productivity and stifling opportunities for expansion. National Air Cargo recognized the need for a new, long-term technology strategy that would help them build a network of systems that worked together—to propel them to the next level. To achieve these goals, National Air Cargo engaged their Microsoft® partner to help them create an integrated technology system that could provide them with the financial, communication, and collaboration technologies they needed to support their growth. Driving their decision to implement Microsoft Dynamics GP was its ability to provide a single repository for financial data and to give their company leaders smooth access to consolidated business intelligence—so they can make faster and more strategic business decisions. The Business Portal module of Microsoft Dynamics GP now gives them quick access to financial information that is easy to use and apply. The Audit Trails module has enabled them to accurately trace all of their transactions—from origination to destination. Since adopting Microsoft Dynamics GP, National Air Cargo has seen dramatic increases in efficiency. The accounting staff at National Air Cargo now generates, within minutes, government compliance reports that used to take up to three weeks. The amount of time it takes to create and submit invoices and receive customer payment has dropped from an average of 120 days to 36 hours. Overall, they have expanded their revenue by 20 percent and increased productivity by 25 percent as a direct result of implementing Microsoft Dynamics GP. These efficiencies now free up staff time for long-range planning, additional reporting, and strategic initiatives that help strengthen their competitive advantage. |
