Talley Defense Systems (TDS), USA
TDS is an Aerospace & Defense manufacturer based in Mesa, AZ, USA. At the time of the selection of the software it was an employee owned company and on an aggressive growth path. TDS tried another so-called ‘brand name’ ERP product for 1½ years but finally found it totally inadequate to handle their complex Aerospace & Defense (DOD) business requirements. They reviewed over 50 of the ‘leading’ ERP Packages available in the market before selecting InfoPower’s fxDBO.
Jim Speer, Director IT and Engineering, Talley Defense Systems comments:
“I have been in the business of evaluating and implementing MRP/ ERP systems for the past 20 years. I constantly evaluate ERP Software Applications to determine systems functionality, trends and changes in the industry. I personally have evaluated over 50 different packages, many of which are listed in trade magazines to be in the top 100 ERP Software packages. Most packages being pushed by the large consulting firms are for one reason, MONEY. It is in their best interest to recommend and provide consulting services for products that provide the best result for themselves, not necessarily best for the company they are providing the consulting for. InfoPower’s fxDBO is not a package that you will hear about from most of these consulting firms. This is a complete package filled with features and functionality that exceeds most packages and an implementation cycle that can be in as little as 6 weeks. The name of the game is flexibility and ease of use.”
For the first stage, TDS went live in 6 weeks, and the software has been functioning virtually trouble free for over the last 2½ years, continually adjusting the software to fit ongoing business process improvements with extreme ease.
