K3 appoints new SYSPRO dealer for Ireland

K3 Business Technology Group has appointed Redflite Limited as a dedicated distributor of SYSPRO manufacturing, financial and distribution ERP business systems for the Irish marketplace.

Based near Belfast, Redflite have successfully grown over the past decade and are specialists in implementing and tailoring Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), HR and financial software solutions for medium sized manufacturing and distribution  companies.

The company previously worked with K3 in implementing the Equator based Human Resources suite of software of Payroll, Personnel, Time & Attendance and Shop Floor Data Collection, which is now part of the overall SYSPRO system offering.

This appointment means K3 will work more closely with Redflite in providing highly popular and fully integrated SYSPRO ERP based systems, including Equator HR, to firms in both the Irish Republic and Northern Ireland.

SYSPRO's advanced technology has gained further worldwide acclaim in recent months by receiving a premier business award, a ‘Stevie'. Plus, SYSPRO has been recognised as one of top five ERP systems recommended by research firm Inside-ERP, who highlighted the utility of SYSPRO for a broad range of industries.

Denis O'Hara, managing director of Redflite, said of the latest move: "K3 have consistently provided software of the highest quality that is both functionally rich yet easy to use for organisations in the private sector.  Also,  we have always found from past experience that K3 have the most efficient support service that always puts the customer first both in  the initial response  and in their continued support."

Andy Latham managing director of K3 Business Technology Group, welcomed Redflite's appointment and commented: "Despite the recent downturn, the Irish manufacturing sector continues to grow and will provide more opportunities for K3 manufacturing and distribution based solutions to increase its presence."

Redflite Limited will be showcasing SYSPRO at a specialised event in Dublin in February, where nine leading ERP products will be pitted against each other over two days. This aims to allow for a true like-for-like comparison for finance and IT executives.
