ERP White Papers
Construction and Distribution Divisions Successfully Managed With One Solution
Overview
Headquartered in Fort Wayne, Indiana, the Strahm Group provides commercial interior construction services for private and public buildings and distributes drywall, steel framing, acoustical ceilings, doors, door frames, and bathroom partitions. In business for more than 75 years, the company had been hesitant to adopt new technology in the past. Consequently, the staff had to rely on the accounting department to generate all reports and financial data. In 2003, the Strahm Group turned to Real Solutions, a Microsoft Certified Partner, to implement Microsoft Dynamics NAV business management software. This solution centralized all company data, providing access to accounting, inventory, and project information for sales staff, estimators, site managers, warehouse managers, and the company's owner.
