Chenab Group's director, Mian Muhammad Naeem said: "We saw a business opportunity in partnering with ACCPAC and we were quick to grab it." Chenab Group will deploy ACCPAC's enterprise resource planning modules in its textile business first and use the implementation to build a business case for its potential customers. "We will be able to present a viable business case to Pakistan's small to medium businesses that revolves around a fast recovery of investments through cost cutting, efficient day to day operations, intelligent decision making, and unlimited scaling capabilities."
Chenab Group owns one of the largest textile unit in Pakistan, located in Faisal Abad , a city that is 300 km away from Islamabad and considered to be the textile hub in Pakistan, and the biggest yarn market in this part of the world. "Our first client is our own textile mills where we are in the process of replacing our old systems with a state of the art ERP based on the various modules that ACCPAC presents," said Naeem. Chenab group expects to realize return on its investment in the new ERP in less than a year after implementation. The group will use the system as a case study to market to neighboring textile businesses and gradually roll out marketing activities to cover other various vertical markets in Pakistan. The group also owns the ChenOne retail stores in Pakistan, UAE and Saudi Arabia and has been using ACCPAC in their UAE operations for the last 18 months.
A team of 25 technology experts is currently handing the system design, customization and implementation at Chenab's textile factory. Naeem explains "We consider that to be a powerful on-the-job training for our experts, giving them enough knowledge to handle future ACCPAC projects in Pakistan."
Marc Van der Ven, regional manager for ACCPAC ends saying: "We are pleased our customers are seeing the enormous value of our integrated e-business solutions and this confirms our strategy of offering customizable solutions which can fit in any industry and in any country. Chenab Group is a good example of a large organization that studied the products in the market and decided to go for superior technology and strong local support."
