Signal Alliance, Microsoft deliver Dynamic NAV ERP solution in Nigeria


Current Microsoft Country Partner of the Year 2011, Signal Alliance, recently held a seminar titled “Microsoft Dynamics ERP – Executive Productivity and Insight”. The seminar showcased Microsoft’s business-critical Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application. An ERP system is an integrated information system that serves all departments within an enterprise. It becomes a core business application that enables a company to streamline its operations to become more efficient and effective.
Microsoft’s Dynamics NAV ERP system includes software for manufacturing, order entry, accounts receivable and payable, general ledger, purchasing, warehousing, transportation and human resources.
The seminar highlighted these features during the two hour seminar which was held in conjunction with Microsoft Nigeria in Lagos.
Introducing the product, Suleiman Lukman, one of Signal Alliance’s Solution Developers and leading Dynamics expert, described the Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 edition as the most powerful, cost-effective, robust and flexible mid-market business management solution available.
His words: “This is one innovation that will stand the test of time. If adopted, the Microsoft Dynamics NAV will drive revenues considerably and reduce cost of operations drastically. The solution is very flexible in its adoption, allowing for it to fit the organization seamlessly. The general Microsoft office interface is retained so users immediately find it easy to adapt reducing training time.”
Lending credence to the viability of the new product, Mr. Emeka Achebe-Okosieme, Executive Director - Business Applications Division, commented that the Microsoft Dynamics NAV is the competitive edge companies are looking for to adopt.
He said “One of the strong points of the NAV is that it is IFRS compliant. This is very important because the new requirement by all companies in Nigeria is that they must submit their financial report in the IFRS format. The NAV also protects a company’s investment in Microsoft solutions by integration with Microsoft Office. Signal Alliance’s vast experience and wealth of technical expertise will serve customers very well in adopting the NAV solution.”   
According to him one of the major successful advancement of the MS NAV is the high level security of information. He also highlighted the fact that is a role tailored client solution, which means it is designed in such a way that business owners and managers, are allowed to create their own pattern of work on this platform.
“Signal Alliance is ready to provide support services for the users of the MS NAV, as part of effort in ensuring that users harness the maximum potentials of an MS NAV driven business Organizations” he said.
Immediate response was visible as several participants’ indicted willingness to test the solution.
