In the July 2011 issue of Oil & Gas Network, Zantek President Ron Mondor describes how to position your company to capitalize on an industry upswing. The key, he said, is not more software – it’s software that does more.
“As businesses grow, they often take on more software and spreadsheets, and then build processes around them. The problem is that these various pieces aren’t connected so more staff is needed to re-enter data and manually reconcile reports.”
He cautioned, “Even if it’s done with 100% accuracy, and it seldom is, it’s very time consuming to get a holistic view on costs and other important business information.”
The article concludes that the right business management software removes growth barriers so businesses can effectively manage growth.
