The choice of Microsoft ERP
with the ADAX Retail & Distribution solution
We realized that our existing IS was too limited to absorb our development and decided to replace it. Since 2009, we have chosen the ERP ADAX Retail & Distribution, which we acquired in its entirety for the following scope: purchasing, sales, stocks, finance and soon CRM, except for manufacturing.
After the launch of the project, we always call on TVH Consulting for expertise. However, we have our own internal teams that allow us to develop the ERP, but on very technical points or developments of the ADAX Retail & Distribution solution, the consultants remain available when necessary.
If tomorrow, Au Forum du Bâtiment were to consider migrating its ERP to Microsoft Dynamics 365, many questions would need to be answered regarding the benefits and risks that this could represent.
