SNC Power Corporation, a leading general contracting house, found a robust and reliable ERP system with Aurigo BRIX and Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP solution to automate their business needs. Even companies in the architecture and interior design space today are moving towards automation to enhance their operating efficiency, control costs and increase profits.

Columbus IT is one of the largest Microsoft Business Solution partners.
Commenting on the recent wins, Mr. Balaji Sreenivasan, CEO and founder, Aurigo Software, said, ”It has been less than a year since we entered the Indian market and we have successfully deployed over 10 instances of the solution in this short period. Our customers have chosen the Aurigo BRIX + Microsoft dynamics AX solution largely owing to its ease of use, industry ready features and India Localization requirements that are met out of the box. In most cases, we have noticed that our customers have replaced their existing home-grown ERP packages with the BRIX+AX solution.”
“The Union budget for 2009-10 by the Government of India has earmarked a staggering Rs. 125,000 cores on building Infrastructure which amounts to over 9% of our GDP. This infrastructure development is massive and needs systems and processes in place to manage projects of this size, both for contractors and the Government agencies. This has lead to an increased number of enquiries that we are seeing. Indian construction companies have realized that they must evolve or perish.” added Mr. Sreenivasan, Founder & CEO, Aurigo Software.
Mr. Vybhav Shetty, Executive Director, SNC Power Corp, said, "Aurigo BRIX + Microsoft Dynamics AX provided us with a holistic solution to our ERP requirements.
