Kerridge Commercial Systems, a global provider of ERP solutions, welcomed over 85 delegates to its Konnect Ireland customer conference in May. The event was attended by companies from the Distributive Trades, Automotive and Rental markets and demonstrated the enthusiasm users of its software have for learning and updating themselves on current versions and options in the KCS software portfolio. 


The keynote presentation by James Mitchell, highlighted the acceleration of digital transformation as key to improving performance and customer service and to creating sustainable working practices. ERP Workflow has traditionally been controlled by paper, with the introduction of its mobile apps reducing internal waste of paper and customer paper trails, KCS are providing its customers with the tools to take the technology to the job, not the job to the technology. “Printing 1 page generates 6 grams of CO2, and at a cost of £0.06 per sheet this all adds up, by digitising processes from picking through to invoicing we are helping our customers stay ahead of the competition, be more profitable and embrace becoming more sustainable.”

KCS have been offering Cloud solutions for over 20 years, with more than 7000 customers in K-Cloud worldwide, the service is offered with up to 99.99% availability and built on a partnership with selected industry leading service provider. Neil Abraham, Director of Cloud and IT Operations, expanded on KCS’s cloud offering and its impact on sustainability, “The impact on sustainability and the environment in general is huge, millions of individual servers are now no longer situated on-site in their own air-conditioned room, consuming vast amounts of energy, using outdated and inefficient equipment. For one moment forget the obvious Cloud benefits of data security, resilience, business continuity etc. The ecological reasons are strong enough themselves. No server on site, no carbon footprint of the person who travelled to site to install it and maintain it, inefficient use of power for air-conditioning, just for a machine ... the ecological arguments for the Cloud go on and on.”

James Mitchell commented on the day, “The feedback we have had from our customers during the event has been really positive. It has been great to welcome our RNH customer base into our family and see so many of them at this event. What a great customer base – very, very happy with the product, really engaged with the brand, and wanting to make sure we have a great product going forward for the Irish Automotive market.”
