Burnaby Based Coastal Range Systems Welcomes Fentro Technologies to their SAP Business One Community

May 14, 2012 - PRLog -- Burnaby, BC – Burnaby based Coastal Range Systems (http://www.coastalrange.ca), a leading channel partner, today announced Fentro Technologies Inc. as one of its newest customers deploying the SAP® Business One application.  With offices across western and central Canada, Coastal Range Systems will manage and complete the implementation from its Burnaby, BC office.

Fentro Technologies (http://www.fentro.com) is a Canadian distributor of tilt-and-turn window systems, hardware and accessories.  In addition to providing coating services with specially formulated heat-reflective coatings, it provides North American window and door fabricators with all the necessary parts and services to manufacture high-quality unplasticized Poly Vinyl Chloride (uPVC) windows and doors.  Its innovations and unparalleled level of expertise has given Fentro Technologies a reputation of being an industry leader across Canada.

The team at Fentro Technologies sought a business management solution that would meet its diverse needs.  In addition to specific reporting capabilities, the new system had to include inventory management, sales, purchasing, financials and accounting functionality.  Fentro Technologies was seeking an application that allowed it to eliminate the manual processes within its business procedures.  The company found what it was looking for in SAP Business One from Coastal Range.  

“We were very impressed with Coastal Range and its very knowledgeable and professional staff,” said Melanie Miller, Financial Controller and Project Manager, Fentro Technologies. “They were able to ask the right questions to understand our needs - rather than just asking open-ended questions.  Sometimes, when you don't know what it is that you need or what is available, it can be difficult to fully articulate your wants and needs.”

“We are extremely excited for the opportunity to work with the team at Fentro Technologies,” said Peter vanLeeuwen, vice president of Sales, Coastal Range Systems.  “SAP Business One (http://coastalrange.ca/sap-business-one) will assist Fentro with streamlining its business processes and increase workflow efficiency as the company grows.  We are looking forward to a strong and successful implementation and are confident that Fentro’s needs and expectations will be met.”
