When B.J.Waters learned that the finance module of their transport management system was reaching end of support, they started looking for a replacement which could level up the organisation.
They decided that Sage Intacct was the best solution, as it’s fully cloud-based and easily accessible anywhere, anytime. It also offers advanced features to help with managing their entities and locations.
B.J.Waters Transport is a group of 2 companies comprising B.J.Waters (Transport) Limited and Geo.Siddall (Transport) Limited. They’re a family run haulage company with depots in Matlock and Ripley, providing transportation services throughout the UK and Europe.
B.J.Waters Transport chose to work with us as we’re a local Sage Partner and offered a flexible approach to delivering the project. From the outset, we took the time to get to know their business’ needs and clearly define the project milestones and deliverables.
As their existing system would continue to be used for day-to-day operations, reliable integration between the two systems was essential to ensure everything would continue to run smoothly.
Our Sage Intacct Consultants, Haris Naeem and Ian Barbour worked closely with B.J.Waters Transport to ensure the system fit their exact requirements. The team also worked with their transport management system provider to ensure seamless integration with Sage Intacct.
Chris Woodhouse (Company Accountant) rated this project as “Overall a very positive experience.”
As a result, we successfully replaced their ageing finance solution with Sage Intacct, which Chris described as “highly intuitive and easy to use.”
Their new system allows them to work from anywhere, automate manual tasks and build detailed reports across the organisation at Group, Company and Depot level.
Chris also added: “Sage Intacct will offer opportunities to refocus finance staff away from routine accounting tasks to value-added financial management activity.”
[We were] allocated an implementation consultant who had excellent product knowledge and a good understanding of business processes[…] Despite a remote implementation model there was regular access to the implementation consultant to track project progress, discuss issues/problems and identify resolutions.
