New York, NY – January 26, 2015 — CGS, a leading global provider of business applications, enterprise learning and outsourcing services announces that after an extensive evaluation and due diligence process, Dan Post Boot Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of McRae Industries, Inc., selected CGS’s BlueCherry® Enterprise Suite to replace the company’s existing software to maximize efficiency, enhance the accuracy of decision-making data and gain around-the-clock system support.
As Dan Post Boot Company operations began to extend beyond the traditional 9-to-5 business framework, the footwear company realized it needed a system with the capacity to scale up its functionality as it continued to grow. To achieve this goal, Dan Post Boot Company selected the best-in-class BlueCherry enterprise suite of solutions including: omnichannel merchandise planning (OCMP), product lifecycle management (PLM), collaborative supply chain (CSC), advanced warehouse management (AWS), business intelligence (BI), electronic data interchange (EDI) capabilities and Microsoft® Dynamics® AX Accounts Payable and General Ledger for fully-integrated corporate financials. The company also selected the BlueCherry Threadvine wholesale solution to enhance sales capabilities and accelerate the wholesale sales and buying process.
“BlueCherry gives us the tools to accelerate our growth without worrying that our business systems can’t keep up the pace,” says Gary McRae, Chief Executive Officer, McRae Industries, Inc. “BlueCherry will deliver real-time business visibility that will enable us to improve strategic decision making and become more agile. After an extensive selection and due diligence process, we decided to select CGS based on their ability to deliver a comprehensive solution that meets all of our long term technology needs for Dan Post Boot Company as well as McRae Footwear, which is our division dedicated to the manufacture and distribution of military and tactical footwear.”
“We are excited to partner with Dan Post Boot Company and McRae Industries as they continue to innovate and grow,” said Paul Magel, President of the Application Solutions Group at CGS. “We look forward to delivering a scalable integrated business solution that will allow them to streamline their entire operation and help meet and exceed their business challenges well into the future.”
