Follow on Google News | Firstkind poised for growth in medical and sports recovery markets fuelled by Microsoft Dynamics NAVMedical and Sports Recovery Devices start-up selects real time solution from The NAV People
By: PR Artistry Mark Whalley, Head of Manufacturing and Logistics said: 'When I joined Firstkind we were looking to launch into the sports recovery market. We needed a proven solution to support that new market, and all the others that we have planned. I had worked with NAV before and knew that the product could do the job.' Whalley continued: 'We are poised for dramatic growth, in three years time we will be managing 100s of 1000s of transactions per month and our turnover is forecast for a potential £50m. The systems we have now are set to enable this and in The NAV People we have experience and depth of knowledge of the way our business runs to support us.' The NAV People provide consultancy and support enabling Firstkind to introduce consolidated financials for multiple companies within the group. In addition they can easily add new trading companies to address additional industry sectors and geographic regions. They are able to manage stock within partner organisations, gaining visibility as soon as components are manufactured. Orders taken by a third party call centre and via their B2C website are entered into the NAV system. Intelligence and workflows built into the system means that it automatically pushes orders to the appropriate fulfilment partner, saving huge amounts of admin time, and ensuring that stock inventory is maintained. Ian Humphries, Managing & Product Director at The NAV People commented; 'We are committed to providing the best service possible to our customers. We enjoy getting to know our customers and how their business works. Firstkind are at a very exciting point in their development, poised for growth after setting up the business, going through trials and getting approval and certifications for their products. Having a versatile ERP solution like Dynamics NAV means they are able to manage that growth without the usual growing pains.'
