| Source: Sage Software, Inc.
VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwire - November 12, 2008) - Sage Software announced today the deployment
of its new Sage Accpac Extended Enterprise Suite at Surrey-based metal
recycler Amix Salvage & Sales Ltd. The Sage Accpac Extended Enterprise
Suite consists of Sage Accpac ERP version 5.5 with integrated SageCRM to
support sales, marketing, and customer service management.
With 3 locations and 175 employees, Amix is one of the largest metal
recyclers in British Columbia, running recycling centers, commercial scrap
yards, and mobile collection operations. More than 40,000 automobiles pass
through Amix's processing yards every year, on their way to be stripped,
crushed, and shipped to metal-hungry markets in the Far East. The Sage
Accpac Extended Enterprise Suite combines the benefits of enterprise
resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM). This
integration of business systems and processes with customer management
information more fully supports Amix's growing operations. The company has
seen its business volume soar in recent years, and to keep up, it relies on
the Sage Accpac Extended Enterprise Suite as its business management
solution.
For over a decade, Amix has relied on Sage Accpac ERP to manage its
business. When Dave Dungey was hired as controller, he recommended that
Amix take advantage of the comprehensive technology advances that the Sage
Accpac Extended Enterprise Suite could bring to its internal business and
external customer management. "We're just starting to make use of SageCRM,"
says Dungey. "But we already see how it will boost our marketing
capabilities, help us analyze customer demographics, and give us a complete
view of our customer interactions." Amix's Sage Accpac Extended Enterprise
Suite also offers integration with Sage FAS Fixed Assets. "This will give
us the ability to accurately track our fixed assets in house, and
automatically calculate depreciation," adds Dungey.
With the Sage Accpac Extended Enterprise Suite, Amix Salvage & Sales is
moving forward to make every level of the organization more productive. "As
we incorporate technology in our business processes, we can see the
enormous potential for additional efficiencies," concludes Dungey. "Sage
Accpac Extended Enterprise Suite is helping us to get there."
