Howell selects Epicor ERP to help achieve growth goals

Epicor Software Corporation, a global provider of industry-specific enterprise software to promote business growth on Friday announced that Howell Protection Systems (India) Pvt. Ltd., a leading system integration business in India, selected the global enterprise resource planning solution, Epicor ERP, to increase visibility, transparency and information exchange across the organisation.

The solution will provide data-rich, real-time reporting - promote smarter working, support better decision making and drive business growth.

"After evaluating other mid-range ERP solutions we found Epicor ERP to be the most suitable to fulfill our requirements, enabling us to access cutting-edge technology anywhere and on any device, and seamlessly integrate with third party applications," said Syed Ishtiyaq, General Manager Howell, India.

Howell Protection Systems India Pvt. Ltd. offers low voltage turnkey solutions in fire, safety, security, building automation, IT and audio-visual technologies. Its customised solutions help its customers to safeguard their premises and intellectual property, and also increase connectivity and productivity.

Previously, Howell was using various independent software and systems to manage their business processes. This led to a lack of collaboration among departments, causing delays in business operations. Howell realised that to meet its growth ambitions through acquisitions and expand into new business verticals, it required a global ERP system with strong reporting and powerful analytics tools.

"With our future growth plans and business expansion, it became imperative to deploy a strong backend system to align the different processes with the organisation's long term objectives. After evaluating other ERP solutions we found EpicorERP to be the most suitable to fulfill our requirements, enabling us to access cutting-edge technology anywhere and on any device, and seamlessly integrate with third party applications, as required," said Syed.

"We're delighted Howell has chosen Epicor ERP to take its business to the next level. Howell is a strong example of the increasing number of ambitious businesses in India that are choosing to replace their legacy systems with modern ERP systems in order to grow into new markets and regions. As a result, Epicor continues to build momentum across India with the support of its trusted channel partners," added Sabby Gill, Executive Vice President, international, Epicor Software.

"We understand the challenges that manufacturing and EPC companies face on a daily basis and provide robust ERP functionality with these challenges in mind. Epicor ERP offers a powerful and flexible solution that will help integrate core business functions and streamline processes. With this partnership, Howell will be able to take advantage of key technologies that are vital for business growth," said Vinay Vohra, Founder and CEO at CorporateServe Solutions, Epicor's channel partner implementing the solution at Howell Protection Systems.
