Market Leader in Primary Chilled Logistics Selects CODA
Best of class software more flexible to meet specific business process requirements; Simpler deployment and maintenance; Integration with other systems key to successful reporting.
Harrogate, United Kingdom, November 22, 2006 --(PR.com)-- CODA plc, the finance systems specialist, today announced that NFT Distribution has chosen to replace its existing SAP financial application with CODA-Financials.
NFT Distribution provides chilled distribution services to major retailers and manufacturers through its transport, warehousing and logistics solutions. The decision was made to replace the system following NFT’s buy-out from Northern Foods plc. It wanted a solution less geared toward manufacturing and more suited to its own individual business requirements, particularly the need to handle open book contracts and weekly reporting.
“CODA has some excellent references in the logistics industry and offers a flexible, configurable system with a simple add-on reporting tool, CODA-XL,” said Emma Arrell, Financial Controller at NFT Distribution. “This will allow us to produce accurate weekly reports quickly and simply. Web browser access is also vital so that each depot has instant visibility of procurement and financial processes giving them control over their performance. Because CODA can easily interface with our other business systems with little manual intervention, we will have more confidence in our ability to quickly access reliable information and produce reports on demand.”
The contract is worth over £200,000 in software and services in its first year. NFT Distribution is running the CODA system in a Microsoft Windows environment with a Microsoft SQL Server database.
