Ross is boss

CDC Software division Ross Systems today announced that BioConvergence LLC, a contract service provider for the life sciences industries, has deployed Ross’ ERP solution as its operational system of record. Ross was also happy to state that the implementation came through on time and – believe it or not – 15 percent under budget.

Ross ERP seeks to assist BioConvergence in streamlining inventory management, managing financial areas and processing transactional data. Interestingly enough, it was another bit of high tech that had BioConvergence looking to upgrade its ERP system. With the addition of a new storage facility for frozen, refrigerated and room temperature Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient product and raw materials, BioConvergence suddenly found a need for a properly focused ERP solution. BioConvergence is a contract service provider that manufactures and stores products for other life sciences companies.

BioConvergence representatives also confidently stated that they are expecting rapid growth in the near future, always a popular reason to deploy a new system. BioConvergence is a private business that partners with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to supply services such as cGMP-compliant storage and logistics, cGMP parenteral product development and consulting services to move new drugs from discovery to commercialization.

Company PR also wishes it known that BioConvergence is an all woman-owned firm. I like it already.
