SYSPRO Finalist For Two Prestigious American Business Awards

SYSPRO Recognized In Categories “Best Overall Company of the Year – Up to 2,500 Employees” and “New Computer Product or Service of the Year”

COSTA MESA, Calif. – May 13, 2011 -- SYSPRO, a global, independent developer of enterprise resource planning (ERP) software, has announced today that the company has been named a finalist for two American Business Awards (“the Stevies.”)  SYSPRO is recognized in the categories “Best Overall Company of the Year – Up to 2,500 Employees,” and “New Computer Product or Service of the Year – Computer Services” for the company’s STARS FastTrack Implementation Methodology.  

The “Company of the Year” citation is based on the combination of the SYSPRO ERP software offering, which provides unparalleled visibility, agility and control at an attractive price performance ratio, and the company’s 30 year track record of delivering one of the most highly utilitarian, ease-of-use ERP solutions on the market.

In developing the STARS FastTrack Implementation Methodology, SYSPRO studied the needs of organizations migrating to ERP software and determined that a pre-configured ERP software solution would be applicable to more than 80% of the organizations moving to an ERP platform.  SYSPRO STARS FastTrack is a pre-configured ERP solution that gives SYSPRO customers best value for the outlay of their funds.  SYSPRO FastTrack accomplishes implementations in as few as three weeks, producing a rapid return on investment.  FastTrack also encompasses SYSPRO training and SYSPRO Business Modeling, whereby a company’s business processes are revised to maximize SYSPRO ERP software utilization..

Of these latest SYSPRO honors, Joey Benadretti, SYSPRO USA Presidents, notes, “It’s the combination of technology, an indomitable entrepreneurial spirit and outstanding people that continues to propel SYSPRO to industry leadership.”

This year’s Stevie Award winners will be announced during an annual gala on Monday, June 20 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City.  More than six-hundred executives from across the U.S.A. are expected to attend.  The event will benefit Camfed (camfed.org), which fights poverty and HIV/AIDS in Africa by educating girls and empowering women to become leaders of change. The ceremonies will be broadcast on radio nationwide by the Business TalkRadio Network.
