Rotary Platforms New Zealand (RPNZ), a subsidiary of Waikato Milking Systems, increased its annualised revenue six-fold in the nine months to the end of 2007, with the rapid growth increasing administrative pressure on the business and emphasising the need for improved forecasting and financial management tools.

“Sage Accpac and Sage Service Manager deliver the transparency we need across our business to better plan for and manage future workloads and resource requirements,” said Richard Aubrey, Waikato Milking Systems’ group financial controller.

RPNZ chose Sage Accpac and Sage Service Manager following a competitive assessment of business software solutions. The solution was implemented by Sage Business Solutions’ New Zealand partner, Business Enabling Systems.

“Working with the data Accpac delivers, we can track available resources and orders pending, schedule equipment maintenance and identify and address resource constraints and capacity issues before they become a problem,” Aubrey said.

“This puts RPNZ in a better position to capitalise on growth opportunities in the market without jeopardising service delivery or stretching the business and staff beyond its means.”

Planning is also underway to extend the roll-out to other subsidiaries of Waikato Milking Systems and integrate Sage CRM.
