WennSoft OWL Case Study

Background : WennSoft OWL Case Study

For over 60 years, Oscar W. Larson Company has served the Midwest as a leader in full service petroleum and fluid handling equipment contracting.

Founded in 1946 to serve the petroleum industry, the Clarkston, Mich. based company has since expanded into the automotive, airline, restaurant, convenience store and service industries.

With over 200 employees and annual revenues of nearly $50 million, Oscar W. Larson provides comprehensive solutions for customer project needs.

Factory-trained technicians and licensed mechanical, electrical, and HVAC contractors deliver “one-stop” shopping to meet design, construction, excavation, remodeling, installation, building maintenance, product consultation and sales needs.

The Oscar W. Larson Company that exists today is far different in many ways from the one that first opened its doors one year after World War II concluded. The company has since grown into a regional petroleum services company with locations in Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. As a result, they realized the importance of having a strong IT infrastructure and related business solutions to assist in tracking jobs and providing information on demand to company leaders and customers.

The Solution

Companies that succeed long term not only change with the times, they lead the way. Oscar W. Larson stepped forward in 1999 when they began implementation of WennSoft Job Cost and Service Management Series, along with Microsoft Dynamics GP.

“Before WennSoft, we were using two different software programs that we had to combine in order to get the needed information,” said Pete Wayne, Larson’s assistant controller. “Our controller, Bill O’Brien, determined we needed to upgrade our accounting system and pursue a cutting edge solution.”
