Advanced Systems Integration Successfully Implements Microsoft Dynamics AX for Food Specialty Manufacturer
Lake Forest, CA (PRWEB) April 23, 2008 -- Advanced Systems Integration (ASi) is pleased to announce the success of its recent implementation of Microsoft Dynamics AX (formerly Microsoft Business Solutions Axapta) at Earthrise Nutritionals, a world-leader in the production of microalgae for use in food and dietary supplement (branded as Earthrise Spirulina).
ASi completed the implementation in January of 2008 utilizing the Microsoft Sure Step Methodology. Michael Forte, Senior Consultant of ASi, explains, "This approach along with Microsoft's Business Ready Licensing for its Microsoft Dynamics business software product lines has enabled many smaller and mid-sized businesses and manufacturers the ability to now purchase Microsoft's most comprehensive, scalable and flexible ERP system, Microsoft Dynamics AX." Business Ready Licensing streamlines pricing for Microsoft Dynamics AX by moving from a pricing model based on hundreds of modules to a new model based primarily on the number of concurrent users who actually use the software.
Earthrise Nutritionals, located in Irvine, CA and with farms and production in the California Sonoran Desert, benefited immediately from the fully integrated ERP system, Microsoft Dynamics AX. Adrian Hsu, Controller at Earthrise Nutritionals explains, "Our previous legacy system did not allow the visibility and real-time views into production and reporting as the new Microsoft Dynamics AX system."
Mr. Hsu also felt the ease, speed and success of the implementation was directly related to the implementation methodology and experience of ASi. The Microsoft Sure Step Methodology defines process phases, milestones roles, artifacts, cross-phase-processes, and additional project management processes. Earthrise specifically benefited from the structure put in place by both Microsoft and ASi. Mr. Hsu commented, "The timelines and tools provided by ASi and the Microsoft Sure Step Methodology made it easy to keep on schedule and track the project progress even with limited resources and an accelerated implementation timeline."
