Anglia Chooses ZAP's Analytics
for LINKFresh
Leading
Microsoft Dynamics NAV-based food management application to be enhanced with
advanced analytics
London, United Kingdom – (December 2, 2009) – Anglia Business Solutions is
integrating analytics into its multiple award winning LINKFresh®
application for the food management industry using Zap’s Business Analytics
for Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
LINKFresh is a vertical solution based on Microsoft Dynamics NAV®
to meet the specific needs of the food supply chain sector, such as
tracking, tracing, and costing products in real time throughout the entire
supply chain.
“The fresh food industry faces real profitability challenges due to the very
short, pressured supply chains associated with perishable products, and the
highly competitive nature of the industry,” said Anglia’s Managing Director,
David Hurley. “Suppliers get so caught up in the challenges of day-to-day
activities that they can’t always see the big picture. Business intelligence
exposes trends, opportunities, and issues that would otherwise be missed,
enabling suppliers to maximize the value of their efforts. They can
instantly see analytics such as customer, product and consignment
profitability as well as grower yields which they can use to optimize their
business potential. We chose Zap’s Business Analytics after evaluating
vendors over the past two years. Zap provides very strong integration with
NAV, particularly for vertical applications which is of utmost importance
for our packaged NAV add-on. The company is also committed to innovation and
can support us globally as we expand.”
Zap’s Business Analytics for Microsoft Dynamics NAV is an out-of-the-box
solution that turns NAV transactions to insight, empowering employees to
make a difference to performance. It puts dashboards, key performance
indicators (KPIs), scorecards, reports, and analysis into the hands of
business users. Even heavily customized vertical solutions such as LINKFresh
are easily accommodated, with a wizard-driven application that brings
through NAV customizations and security instantly.
“We are strongly committed to enhancing vertical solutions built on the
Microsoft Dynamics platform with advanced analytics,” said Garth D. Laird,
President of Zap. “Anglia is an excellent example of a strong industry
offering that is attracting global attention. We are proud that Anglia has
chosen Zap’s Business Analytics after extensive exploration of alternative
vendors.”
“Zap’s collaboration with Anglia is proving very successful in a short space
of time,” said Steve Zangari, Zap’s General Manager, United Kingdom. “With
multiple Anglia customers already purchasing Zap's Business Analytics, we
are looking forward to entering a more strategic phase of our partnership.”
