KCS has its headquarters in the UK with offices in Ireland, the Netherlands and South Africa, supporting more than 700 customers with 50,000 users at more than 3,500 locations across Europe, Africa, Asia and Australasia.

KCS has achieved Oracle Exadata Optimized status through Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN), demonstrating that the K8 enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution has been tested and tuned with Oracle Exadata Database Machine to deliver speed, scalability, and reliability to customers.

K8 is KCS’s single, fully-integrated business management solution. The system is flexible and robust enough to address complex business requirements while providing an easily accessible and navigable user interface. A comprehensive, functionally-rich ERP solution, K8 covers all key, operational areas including retail, ecommerce, supply chain management, financials and customer relationship management (CRM).

KCS has a solid understanding of how Oracle Engineered Systems can provide customers with business gains through outstanding technical performance. The company became an early adopter of Oracle Exadata Database Machine, resulting in a dramatic increase in K8 sales processing performance, demonstrating its suitability for providing greatly improved online transactional processing (OLTP) power for any customers handling large volumes of sales and business transactions.

With K8 running on Oracle Exadata Database Machine, KCS customers can expect to realize significant throughput performance gains. Increased processing capabilities significantly accelerate sales-per-second throughput and reporting performance, reducing wait times across large, multi-user populations. K8 on Exadata delivers a 16x increase in sales per second, compared to previous hardware benchmarks.

Distribution and logistics organisations can now benefit from a fully optimised distribution and workforce management system provided by Kerridge Commercial Systems, in partnership with Cognito.

Utilising Cognito’s best of breed mobile workforce management technology, the K8 ePOD solution integrates its full capabilities with a hosted, real-time communications platform. This is complete with a dedicated workflow application that resides on the mobile worker’s handheld device.

The solution enables organisations with significant transportation, distribution and logistics operations, to push delivery manifests to drivers; prompt drivers through their daily tasks, enforcing compliance; receive real-time updates on individual deliveries; and once the manifest is complete, receive a manifest
summary or debrief.

“In a highly competitive market, producing an optimal delivery route, managing staff and keeping in close contact with them is essential for maximising customer service performance and driving down costs,” said Duncan Smillie, Sales & Marketing Director at Kerridge Commercial Systems. “The challenge is to streamline distribution operations from the first customer contact through to on time and in full delivery. Working with Cognito, our integrated systems provide exactly this, and our customers can benefit from seamless delivery and optimal service.”

A managed and locked down environment is at the core of the solution, ensuring that the mobile worker’s handheld is a dedicated work tool, with the ability to be controlled and updated by managers remotely. All data processed through the handheld is fully auditable and a comprehensive time stamped audit trail provides the back office with the exact status of each message, even if it has been stored due to network coverage.

Kerridge Commercial Systems announces that Hariche Group, one of Mozambique’s leading distributors of steel and building materials, has signed a contract to implement a 30 user K8 solution.

The decision to invest in K8 was to meet Hariche Group’s need for a fully integrated, scalable system to replace a predominantly accounting-based platform. K8 will provide the capability to support business growth, implement more efficient processes, together with advanced management information and reporting functionality.

Hariche MD, Hariche Arquissandas, “K8 is a stable, robust and comprehensive solution that will grow with our business. It will also help enable us to exploit the many new and exciting business opportunities here in Mozambique - K8 functionality, in areas such as kits and works orders, will prove particularly beneficial.  In the longer term, we want to take full advantage of K8 mobile technology, which will give our sales team remote access to the system, as and when they need it.”

Des Nangle, MD Kerridge Commercial Systems South Africa commented “We are delighted that Hariche Group has selected K8 – an ideal platform for this dynamic, growing organisation. We are ready to give them our full support as they prepare to take on K8 and exploit its extensive functionality and deliver the benefits to their business.”

Gaborone-based company set to grow the success of market-leading K8 solution. Kerridge Commercial Systems, leading software solutions partner for the distributive trades, today announces the appointment of IT Junxion as an authorised distributor in Botswana.

The company is expanding its customer base in Botswana and this appointment is in response to the increased demand for the K8 system in the country. IT Junxion are Kerridge Commercial Systems’ first distributor in Botswana. They have been chosen because of their established reputation, technical expertise, local market knowledge and proven capabilities in developing business opportunities.

Des Nangle, MD Kerridge Commercial Systems South Africa, said, IT Junxion is ideally situated. In just one square mile in Gaborone, we already have six customers with over 250 users and our user base is continuing to grow. Local expertise and resource is increasingly important to provide high quality support for our customers in Botswana. We already have an excellent working relationship with IT Junxion. And the company, headed up by Bhavesh Naik, is well known and respected locally.”

K8 is a perfect fit for the trading environment in Botswana. The system has already proven its capability in the country. It’s in use by businesses who operate with tight profit margins, have large and varied product ranges to maintain and who need to deliver high levels of customer service.

Bhavesh Naik said, “Using K8, customers have the clear advantage of a fully integrated, real time trading environment. By being able to deliver accurate, quality information, management decisions are more informed and easier to make. Finance departments can enjoy the benefits of much tighter control, detailed reporting and data analysis. K8 is unquestionably rich in functionality and its very thin bandwidth requirement is ideal for the network resources in southern Africa.”

Reflecting on the future Nangle commented, “We are excited at the opportunities available to us in Botswana. Working with IT Junxion, we will continue to deliver easy-to-use, scalable and beneficial solutions to our customers. K8 will help them to become more effective, more efficient and ultimately more profitable. As our distributor, IT Junxion will help us to achieve that goal.”

Kerridge Commercial Systems today announces that following a series of demanding assessments and benchmark reviews, K8, the company’s integrated trading and financial ERP system, has achieved Technology Evaluation Centers (TEC) certified status.

TEC Certification is an impartial review that verifies a software product’s ability to address business processes and meets the stringent guidelines specified by TEC’s analysts. K8 is now able to bear the TEC Certified seal signifying that Kerridge Commercial Systems’ responses to TEC’s request for information (RFI) satisfactorily describe the product’s capabilities.

Ian Bendelow, Kerridge Commercial Systems CEO said, "This is a significant recognition for K8 and confirms that the system conforms to TEC’s well-defined standards. It has been taken through a particularly close scrutiny using TEC’s comprehensive ERP software model."

K8 performed particularly well throughout the evaluation. To begin with, its support for multiple companies, brands, branches currencies and language capabilities was highlighted as being very well built. In terms of ease of use, product layout, task performance and integration capabilities K8 also came out strongly. Likewise in workflow design criteria - information retrieval, system security and reporting capabilities the system received equally positive assessments. TEC also reported that K8’s ease of implementation was well regarded in terms of server and database platforms together with good set-up flexibility.

TEC said that the K8 Warehouse Management module and the credit management functionality deserved special mention. The system’s flexibility and robustness to support complex business operations with its easily accessible and navigable user front end also shone through. They went on to say that the K8 screens are well designed and operations flow seamlessly, presenting information to the user without being overly cluttered.

The K8 project spanned the seven Voltex divisions and approximately 80 trading branches with 1,250 users now operating the system. Voltex selected K8 for its ability to financially integrate its business divisions and deliver a high level of customer service at each of the branches.

Eric Immermann of Voltex commented, “K8 enables transparent reporting and consolidation across our regions and is supporting our key corporate business decisions. The system has integrated our trading branches to enable efficient inventories to meet customer demands. K8’s ease of use has meant our users have adopted the system quickly, resulting in minimum disruption to us and more importantly our customers. We face some unique infrastructure challenges in South Africa and K8 is perfectly suited to that situation by having only low bandwidth demands between branches reducing the demands on our network.”

Des Nangle, MD KCS South Africa said, “I congratulate the Voltex team on the success of this project and much is owed to the partnership approach adopted by the two companies. The project teams worked closely together to ensure that K8 was configured to meet Voltex requirements and fully prepared for the branch roll-out.”

The success of the project was put into context when Voltex won the prize as the Bidvest Group’s company with the most improved year-on-year audit; using K8 for financial management and whilst completing the branch roll-out. “The K8 project has been a huge success for Voltex, delivered on time and on budget. It lays the foundation for a long partnership with Kerridge Commercial Systems,” said Eric Immermann.

International distributor invests in new IT system

1st November 2012: Kerridge Commercial Systems today announces that European distributor SIG have signed a contract for K8 – the market leading trading and financial system. K8 will be installed into the company’s 300+ branches across the UK covering around 2,000 users. A market-leading system, widely used by the distributive trades, K8 will provide SIG with advanced integrated capabilities across its customer-facing delivery operations, back office and management information areas. The system will become an essential asset for business improvement, decision making and performance monitoring.

Prior to placing the order for K8, SIG carried out an exhaustive market review of suitable systems. Ultimately, at the end of a very comprehensive selection process, K8 was chosen. SIG considered that K8’s capabilities delivered the greatest range of quantifiable benefits. Furthermore, the system offered impressive functionality and flexibility which were important requirements given the company’s diverse product base and operational activities.

A strategic acquisition which will result in a powerful manufacturing and distribution software capability for the market leading systems company.

19th October 2012: Kerridge Commercial Systems Limited (KCS) today announces the acquisition of Datawright Limited. Based in Washington, Tyne and Wear, Datawright, with its Kingfisher product, specialises in solutions for the manufacturing sector with a client base in the UK and an international presence in China, Sweden, UAE and the USA.

KCS, based in Hungerford, Berkshire, with its leading K8 solution, specialises in business management solutions to the distribution industry. The company has operations in the UK, Ireland, Netherlands and South Africa supporting customers in 15 countries.

Ian Bendelow, (CEO of KCS) comments, “We are very pleased to make this strategic acquisition. As our customers in the distributive trades continue to take control of their supply chain, they are looking to differentiate themselves through offering value-added processes and many require their systems to have manufacturing functionality. As a consequence of this acquisition, our customers will be able to take advantage of a fully proven manufacturing module which will be added to the K8 system. Equally, I believe that the strength of the larger KCS group and its enhanced product capabilities will enable us to achieve growth in the manufacturing sector.”

“The two companies have known each other for many years and share a common technology platform and we will immediately set about integrating the two systems to provide a single solution which will bring significant additional benefits to our customers. To reflect our new strategy, Datawright will become KCS Datawright and Kingfisher will be re-branded as K8 Enterprise. “

Jim Symonds (Managing Director of Datawright) comments, “This is a very positive move both for our customers and our people. Having known Kerridge Commercial Systems for many years, I believe that our cultures are remarkably similar. We both work extremely closely with our customers, have the same strong work ethic and we share a common technology platform. The greater development capability, resource and market presence of the combined organisation means that our customers will be able to benefit from better products, broader knowledge and experience together with a larger user community. The KCS expansion plan will also mean career development opportunities for our staff which are important considerations in the fast-changing world of IT. After 10 years as a Datawright customer and 18 years with the company, I am proud to be able to hand over the reins to the safe hands of Kerridge Commercial Systems, whose drive and integrity will take the company forward.“

Ian Bendelow says, “I’d like to thank Jim Symonds for his tremendous support. We have a great opportunity to deliver considerable benefits to our customers and our staff. We will continue to grow the business by making sure that we bring easy to use, scalable and flexible solutions to help our customers become more successful and more profitable.”

There are many influencing factors which cause merchants to review their computer system. It may be that the existing system has no development strategy or perhaps there are concerns about the supplier’s security. Retrieving information, particularly when serving customers, could be a time consuming and frustrating process. Or perhaps, slow and cumbersome management tools mean that the system is not doing much for effective decision-making and business planning. The acid test – is the incumbent system fit for purpose, or is there a risk that the business is being left behind? All these arguments are fine, but perhaps a little vague. Is it possible to simplify the expectations of a modern, fully integrated system? And then to assess how existing systems are performing.

With its 35 years of delivering class-leading distribution software, Kerridge Commercial Systems has defined four key areas to help sweep away some of the hype. The essential areas, says the company, are purchasing, stock control, sales and customer service. As benchmark groups these headings should help to compare one alternative system from another. And make it easier to judge the best one to suit the business.

Purchasing requires total control. Essential tools include being able to predict and forecast demands and place orders at the right time and on the right terms. With profitability being under pressure, the ability to control rebates is increasingly important. The system should be flexible enough to enable a choice of suppliers, national or international. It goes almost without saying that accurate, up to date management information should be available, and at the press of a button.

Stock control is all about being as efficient as possible. The key is to have a system that will help to optimise stock levels, ideally on a just in time basis. Facilities to support single and multiple locations, branches and central warehouses, means that there is a much better chance of being able to match customers’ needs.

Nowadays, systems really need to be effective selling machines. First and foremost, there are new sales channels to support – the internet being the most significant arrival which enables trading to take place 24/7. Integrated ecommerce tools are becoming a must-have capability and customers also expect ‘fast food’ style responses when they make an enquiry by phone, or in person.

Which brings us on to profitability. The importance of having facilities that enable a constant and careful watch on the margin, of each transaction, has never been greater. Customers shop around and if deals are to be done, having the tools that can give instant warnings if minima are being breached is immensely useful. If the information is there, the right decisions can be made.

The end game of course is to look after customers better than the competition. More to the point, how can the system make the job easier. If its facilities are being used well to support purchasing, stock control and sales process, chances are a better customer service will result naturally. The business will know more about what the customer wants and information will be there instantly to respond to their enquiries. By being able to do all those things more efficiently and more effectively, there will be more time to develop customer relationships. And that you’re the best company to trade with.

Duncan Smillie, sales director: “From our experience the process of evaluating systems can be quite complex and sometimes it is all too easy to get bogged down in detail. More often than not, decisions come down to ticking the basics – principally how effective is the system in handling day- to-day processes, with speed and efficiency being the key criteria. We believe that the headline requirements in purchasing, stock, sales and customer service cover most of what builders’ merchants look for in a system. We also believe that our customers chose us as because of our consistent industry focus, robust product strategy and demonstrable track record.”

Nicholls & Clarke Group have placed an order with Kerridge Commercial Systems for a 200 user K8 system to replace its legacy ERP systems. Through recent growth and business development the company, which employs over 500 members of staff, needed a system which would provide high performance transaction processing. The decision to choose K8 came from a broad evaluation of candidate systems which was then shortlisted for detailed assessments of the three platforms which most closely matched business requirements. Ultimately, the principle reasons for choosing K8 were its fast point of sale capabilities and immense versatility in all areas of the system

David Forbes, CEO of the Nicholls & Clarke Group of Companies commented, “As a company developing and investing in production technology, new product developments and IT systems, we needed a new system that would provide us with a platform for the future. We were impressed with K8’s capability across the board and in particular transaction processing where speed, efficiency and flexibility are essential requirements. This investment involves much more than a new computer system. In making our selection, it was critically important that we would gain an IT partner who we could work with and develop a long and successful relationship. Stability, continuity and the assurance of a product roadmap for the years ahead are vital. With the company’s track record, I believe that Kerridge Commercial Systems will be an excellent partner for us.”

In addition to the fully integrated K8 trading and financial suites, Nicholls & Clarke have specified the latest CRM and Business Intelligence applications as part of the project

Duncan Smillie, Sales & Marketing Director, Kerridge Commercial Systems said, “We are delighted that Nicholls & Clarke have chosen K8. It has been a pleasure to work with their team during the pre-contract stages and in that time we have learned a great deal about their business and understand how they want to use K8. We welcome Nicholls & Clarke as a customer and look forward to supporting them during the implementation and beyond.”

The Key to Integrated and Streamlined Supply Chain Management Proccesses

The supply chain process has always been the cornerstone of any successful distribution organisation - effective supply chain management can set a company apart from its competitors. In today's market, it's vitally important that this process also improves efficiency and reduces costs across the business and the right IT platform makes this possible. The market-leading K8 software solution from Kerridge Commercial Systems is the key to integrated and streamlined Supply Chain Management.

Streamline the supply chain for success

The need for a competitive advantage has never been greater and for distributors this means enhanced supply chain management. That's because logistics and the supply chain is the lifeblood of a distribution business, running through manufacturing, packaging, warehousing, stock management, sales order processing and, ultimately, customer fulfilment. The challenge for all distribution businesses is how to streamline these disparate functions in order to enhance the operational processes overall and ensure customer satisfaction, thereby gaining that competitive edge. The answer is integration.

K8: integration through innovation

Viewing the supply chain as a single integrated operation is essential if organisations are to use international best practice processes. Given that the benefit of adopting 'best practice' is greater cost control, improved efficiency and therefore increased profitability, finding an integrated IT solution lies at the heart of effective supply chain management.

K8 is a fully integrated, functionally-rich trading, marketing, financial and business management system which operates at each and every stage of the supply chain process. K8 offers the key to both the integration and the streamlining of logistics in one single IT solution. This highly advanced and innovative system, powered by Oracle and provided on the most powerful, secure and reliable database in the world, Oracle 11g, is simple to adapt to any business, of any size, and is intuitive to use.

Future-proofing supply chain management

While the importance of supply chain management is common to all distributors, each organisation faces its own specific challenges in logistics, hence the need for a flexible IT system which can deliver where its needed most. The K8 platform is fully scalable and adaptable, offering solutions to small, one-site businesses as well as multi-site, multi-national corporations. Its specific functionality can be honed to address operational issues as they arise, allowing organisations to future-proof their supply chain management. K8 delivers solutions which work today and which prepare for tomorrow.

Trademarks

We are making excellent progress with the integration of TIS and Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS) - Kerridge Commercial Systems signs are now in place at the Bourne End office. A key milestone was reached on the 15th December, with the announcement of the new organisation structure for the integrated business. Many staff from Bourne End recently spent a day at Hungerford to meet with their KCS colleagues.

Across the company there is clearly a growing understanding of each business’s products and services and how the benefits of the acquisition will start to accrue in the coming weeks.

Probably the most significant aspect of the integration process to date has been the formulation and announcement of the new, post-acquisition, product strategy. All customers are in process of being briefed individually on the programme for new and existing products and will be guided according to needs. Again, we stress that customer’s long term interests remain paramount.

Another important project from a customer service point of view is in progress to integrate TIS into the KCS call-logging systems. This will result in us having a single management and control process to monitor call activity and response performance. A dedicated team of analysts with the requisite knowledge and experience will continue to be based at Bourne End.

As you will appreciate, the project will continue for some months yet, but everyone is very confident that by mid-year, we will be working as one organisation and our customers will increasingly be able to take advantage of the benefits.
