Boddingtons deal signed

Anglia Business Solutions in Cambridge has won a contract to implement a Microsoft Navision business management suite for Boddingtons Ltd, extruders and converters of specialised thermoplastic films, meshes and nets supplying worldwide to the construction, horticultural, agricultural, geotextile, electrical and pipeline industries.

The 30-user Microsoft Navision deployment will provide Boddingtons with one central solution covering finance, purchasing, manufacturing, inventory control, customer relationship management and human resources.

With manufacturing & sales operations in the UK, Australia and China, Bodd-ingtons sells to 60 countries.

Rob Jackson, Operations Manager for Boddingtons; “We had a real mixed bag of software in use throughout the organisation, none of which talked to each other. Moreover, the company has evolved and the systems in use no longer matched the business structure. We predict growth in the region of 10-20% year on year therefore, it is essential to our success that we deploy a flexible, expandable, modern solution, fully integrated with all areas of the business. In particular we wanted the new solution to address the bottlenecks in our production process, and enable us to access in real-time the information required to run the business effectively.”


David Hurley, Managing Director for Anglia adds; “Boddingtons are a classic example of a growing company whom has identified its IT systems as mission critical to its future success. The Microsoft Navision solution capitalises on the Microsoft technologies already in use within the organisation and provides them with a future-proofed platform capable of expansion as the business grows.”
