About Us

Unlike most IT companies we look to harness information technology within a customer's existing environment wherever possible, specialising in providing value added services as extensions to systems, allowing customers to benefit without major upheavals and cost. Of course we are delighted to implement brand new fully integrated applications, complete with data migration, but we don't 'hard sell' our systems when a customer is happy with their current implementation but is looking for additional facilities to enhance it rather than wholesale changes.

Formed in 1997 and based in the Midlands, Systems and Software provide a wide range of information technology services to businesses regardless of size, offering solutions from procurement and support, through software
development and implementation, to fully managed system provision and web interfaces. Our managed payroll, direct marketing, and business consultancy services further
enhance our ability to provide your business with the specialist resources it needs, allowing you and your staff
to concentrate on running the business.

Our philosophy is always to develop harmonious working relationships with each and every customer - the more successful your business is the happier we are !!

Our Internet applications are designed to seamlessly integrate the power and scope of
the web with business processes and systems, providing your users and customers
with a unified application environment. By employing this approach at the design stage,
we ensure the interactions between processes and services are developed alongside
the solutions, removing the necessity to implement unreliable and time consuming data interchange mechanisms to force disparate systems 'talk' to each other. By integrating
web and business systems, we enable your customers to access any information you
wish to make available in a secure web environment under your control. Facilities such
as order tracking or stock availability are good examples of this integration, where
allowing customers to view their own information frees the resources within your
own business which were previously dedicated to providing this service.

Our BACS audited payroll services have been designed to suit your needs, based on many years of experience in the field. Providing cost effective managed payroll facilities to companies of any size, we pride ourselves on tailoring the service to meet the individual requirements of each and every customer. With a wide range of data acquisition and accounting routines, along with an extremely flexible payroll processing system itself, we adapt quickly and easily to any and all demands your payroll imposes.

Using both our own in-house expertise and the resources of our business partners we offer a full help and support service covering virtually any hardware, networking and software installation. From a simple user request for advice through to a major hardware issue, we treat all support functions with the same degree of importance, working with the customer to quickly analyse the impact of the situation and agreeing a schedule of support to achieve resolution. Available on a 24/7 basis if required, we adopt a 'problem ownership' philosophy, where we take ownership of each and every issue regardless of the resolution path. No more being passed from pillar to post because your various providers deny responsibility or won't work together !!

Direct Marketing can be an extremely successful mechanism for increasing the customer base of any business. Implemented wrongly it can alienate potential customers and quickly absorb vast resources and funds with very little return on investment. By working with specialists in each area of direct marketing we can integrate any direct marketing campaign. Utilising fax, email, SMS, mail, telesales and internet solutions, we aim to ensure you achieve the best possible results from your campaign.

Business Consultancy often acquires a poor results to cost return and can very
easily soak up company funds better devoted to other activities. With many years experience 'at the coal face', we offer cost-effective consultancy specifically
targeted to improve your business processes. Whether it be accelerating order to despatch times, improving warehouse put-away and retrieval cycles, analysing production utilisation, or providing key financial statistics, we work to agreed
terms of reference and time scales to deliver and implement effective solutions.
Equally at home on the shop floor or in the board room, our results presentations
are geared to the audience for whom they are intended.

Information technology should be driven by the needs of the business, providing the platform for continuous improvement in a company's activities. To meet these needs, implementing and maintaining ever more complex IT structures, platforms, and user requirements is a continual headache and resource drain for all companies. SAS provide fully managed implementations to enable companies to reap the benefits of IT without
the associated problems. Whether running on our own fail-safe Windows servers, a customer's own platform, or on a dedicated platform specifically for the purpose,
utilising our managed services can significantly reduce the capital and revenue
costs linked to IT, freeing the company from the continual burden of managing and supporting the infrastructure.

More than just another CRM package, SASCrm provides an integrated relationships environment for both internal and external customers. Designed to bind seamlessly with virtually any business system, the modular application is extremely flexible and intuitive giving rise to rapid implementation. With true client/server methodology and inbuilt remote connectivity, SASCrm is the ideal solution for both office-based and on-the-road users. Among the highlights featured in the package are distributed delivery of documents by fax/email/SMS, true centralised diary processing, detailed call analysis, incoming call detection, comprehensive classification hierarchies, multi-level security structure, and powerful selection/extraction utilities.

Recognising that the central business system acts as a transaction handler but that reporting requirements are sometimes best served by exporting core data to local routines, our applications software runs on a wide range of hardware platforms and enables full data interchange. The modules
span the full gamut of business activity and come complete with user developed data export and
reporting routines. Fully integrated with our CRM applications and a host of delivery mechanisms
via fax, email or SMS, the applications hold powerful web enablement processes to easily provide
internet access by customers and field personnel to core data under password security or through
remote access.

IT applications are at the heart of virtually every company, being integral to every
area of a company's business. Poor systems and implementations often lead to
excessive resource utilisation to compensate for shortcomings, with a wealth of
'satellite' processing and databases springing up. Our applications packages are
deliberately designed to provide comprehensive and reliable systems to companies
of all sizes, the modular structure allowing customers to tailor implementations to
suit their own needs. By adopting a multi-language application environment, we
retain complete flexibility in rapid development whilst preserving a fully integrated
database structure.
