Life sciences company to replace its ERP system with Microsoft to gain a 360-degree view of customers and easy access to supply chain data.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) October 22, 2007 -- Fullscope, a Gold Certified Microsoft Business Solutions Partner focused on helping process and discrete manufacturers manage their businesses more effectively and efficiently, today announced that Cayman Chemical Company, a Michigan manufacturer and distributor of biochemical research products, has selected Process Industries for Microsoft Dynamics AX to replace its existing enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. Cayman will use Dynamics AX to gain a holistic view of its business across all operational levels to better understand customer needs.

"When it came time to select a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to replace our dated legacy system, we chose Microsoft Dynamics AX over offerings from Oracle and SAP," said Mark Holt, IT manager of Cayman Chemical. "Dynamics AX offers us an integrated, user-friendly platform that will provide visibility into our customers and our business as a whole that should allow us to continue our rapid growth across the globe. With Fullscope's implementation expertise, we expect to see a positive return on investment in less than 12 months."

Cayman Chemical has 250 employees in four countries with a product offering of 2,700 different biochemicals to over 4,000 customers worldwide. With year-over-year growth and recent acquisitions in Europe, Cayman needed a new ERP solution that provided easy access to data and could scale to multiple locations and distribution channels worldwide. Another key driver was true integration across multiple sites to better manage inventory, sales processes, manufacturing and supply chain activities. The company selected Process Industries for Microsoft Dynamics AX to gain a 360-degree view of its customers and accurately manage inventory to meet both production and sales needs.

"Process Industries for Microsoft Dynamics AX is an excellent choice to help Cayman Chemical achieve its vision to have an integrated system to accommodate current growth and anticipated future expansion," said Russell Smith, president of Fullscope. "We look forward to helping Cayman with an on-time, on-budget implementation."
