K3 consolidates SYSPRO operations

The new name for the consolidated company is K3 Business Technology Group and the organisation has its headquarters in Salford Quays, Greater Manchester, UK. The consolidation enables existing and new customers to benefit from a single enhanced support desk that pulls together the extensive skills and resources of both SYSPRO vendors. In addition, K3 Business Technology Group will provide customers with access to a much larger team of consultancy staff that offers a vast pool of knowledge and experience across a broad range of vertical industries. Coupled with this deep industry knowledge is the range of specific software solutions now available from a single source. For example, bringing together McGuffie Brunton's expertise in warehouse management and IEG's skills in shopfloor scheduling means that customers can now have all their requirements met by a single team. “Combining these businesses under one roof makes it much easier for SYSPRO users to gain access to targeted integrated solutions for manufacturing, distribution and supply chain applications. Our customers will undoubtedly benefit from drawing on our pooled skills, knowledge and comprehensive resources which encompass a wide range of industry and application expertise,” said Howard Joseph, managing director, K3 Business Technology Group.
