Nick Coburn – Group Managing Director and Deputy Chairman for Ulster Carpets 

Regarding the selection of Sysco Software Solutions and Microsoft Dynamics 365 as their platform for continued growth in the industry, Group Managing Director and Deputy Chairman for Ulster Carpets, Nick Coburn commented, “Through our selection of Sysco Software Solutions and our investment in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for finance, supply chain management and project operations, we have continued to demonstrate our commitment to utilising the latest technological innovations and manufacturing advancements to maintain our position as the premier supplier of luxury Axminster and Wilton carpets to the world market.”

Kim Lucas, Director and Project Manager for Ulster Carpets continued, “At Ulster Carpets, we design for, deliver to and remain totally service-orientated to our clients internationally as well as domestically. To ensure that we continue to strengthen our position as a premium carpet brand in the industry, we needed a modern financial, logistics and project management platform. With that in mind, we chose Sysco Software and Microsoft Dynamics 365 as a modern, cloud-based platform to refine our financial controls and to automate business processes, which, due to aging legacy systems were being carried out manually.”

Kim continued, “With Microsoft Dynamics 365, we will have a scalable platform that will allow us to be even more responsive, not only to our clients, but in addressing the complexities and challenges of running an international manufacturing business. Whether that be in the form of cloud-based access with globally available state-of-business reporting, improved financial controls or the ability to quickly adapt to the changing needs of our business, our customers, and the markets that we do business in. The development roadmap that has been put in place by Microsoft and delivered by the team at Sysco Software, gives us the confidence that the strategic vision of the company will be supported now and in years to come.”
