Implementation for Elixir Industries
MTSI, INC. COMPLETES ORACLE CRM ON DEMAND - IMPLEMENTATION FOR ELIXIR INDUSTRIES
SIX- WEEK PHASE I IMPLEMENTATION KICK STARTS NEW YEAR
BREA, Calif. – March 4, 2009 – MTSI, Inc.®, a leading IT and business solutions provider, today announced the Phase I completion of an Oracle CRM On Demand application implementation for Elixir Industries, a major steel and aluminum extrusion fabricator and leading supplier of component parts to a myriad of industries, effective February 18, 2009.
The Phase I launch was completed in about six weeks. All configuration, knowledge transfer and implementation project collaboration for the Oracle CRM On Demand system included three Elixir business divisions; Phase II will expand the implementation through the remaining Elixir divisions, planned for later this year.
“To meet the ever-changing challenges of customer interaction and lead processing, Elixir wanted an improved business process solution that was easy to use and yet flexible enough for a phased implementation into our sales cycle,” said Bob Powers, Elixir national accounts coordinator. “The Oracle CRM On Demand provides instant point-of-control and visibility into all areas of our sales cycle, allowing us to plan and anticipate much more efficiently,” Mr. Powers added.
Ganesh Balasubramani, president of MTSI, states, “As a result of the collaborative effort between the MTSI and Elixir teams, the Phase I implementation went very smoothly and quickly. The carefully phased knowledge transfer accelerated ownership to the Elixir team and made the six-week implementation possible. In the current economy, where customer acquisition and retention is so critical, Elixir now has a tool that is expected to considerably reduce the cost of acquisitions. MTSI is looking forward to beginning the Phase II of the implementation in the near future.”
