Existing ERP Prevents Modernization

For over four decades, CME has helped thousands of projects nationwide open on time and within budget. As industry leaders, they understand the critical importance of finding a modern and innovative ERP solution. For CFO, William Malo, the vision was always to move to the cloud. With experience in various ERP solutions, including previously hosting other Infor products, he recognized that migrating to a cloud-based solution would allow the company to focus on its value proposition. “Aktion provided top-notch support and was instrumental in the success of parsing out the data and moving to the cloud,” William said.

Aktion provided top-notch support and was instrumental in our company’s success.

Why Make the Transition?

CME Corp. has two corporate headquarters, 35+ service centers and were in the need for a solution to handle many of the demands of their business needs and the needs of their customers. CME knew of Aktion’s experience in partnering with industry leaders to provide customers with the best server, storage, and system solutions to optimize their business processes would lead them into the future.

Working with Aktion was the right choice. They were responsive. Handing off all hardware was the correct choice and helped us to build a cohesive, customer-focused business.

A Partnership for Success

CME was previously using the licenses of their sister companies of A+ for over a decade and soon realized they required the ease of the cloud hosting that Aktion provides. Aktion understood the need for cloud services to focus on the capabilities required to accommodate specific hardware packages. 

It’s been a positive relationship – it’s been a game changer for us. The CIO handles the day-to-day relationship with Aktion—their IT partner.
