Microsoft Dynamics for Wholesale & Distribution.

The primary objective of the warehousing and distribution functions within a business is to meet the customers’ requirements by getting the right products to the right place, at the right time, and in the right condition. However, limited space and demands to maximise stock turnover, along with increasing pressures to gain better efficiency from staff resources conflict with this requirement. Columbus IT specialise in Microsoft Dynamics Distribution ERP solutions that enable customers to overcome this conflict.

“Being able to centralize procurement, look at the
data across the whole group and negotiate with
our suppliers, we have made significant savings.
So far in the last 6 months we have negotiated
savings that represent about £2m per year to the
