DM2 Earns Sage President's Circle Award

Also forms paperless partnership

VANCOUVER Wash. -- DM2 Software, which provides accounting and other business-management software to petroleum distributors nationwide, has been named to Sage Software's President's Circle for the eighth straight year. The designation honors Sage business partners that generate the highest revenue on the sale, installation and support of Sage's MAS 90 ERP and MAS 200 ERP accounting software programs for the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 2006.

Fewer than 75 Sage business partners earned the President's Circle designation in the annual competition [image-nocss] among more than 5,000 companies throughout North America. DM2 Petroleum Insights is DM2's petroleum-distribution industry-specific ERP system based on MAS 90 and MAS 200 ERP. DM2 placed among the top 10 in MAS 90 ERP revenues for the eighth straight year.

Vancouver, Wash.-based DM2 has been a Sage business partner since DM2's founding in 1989.

In other company news, DM2 Software and Fort Mills, S.C.-based SMARTLogix recently entered a joint technology partnership to integrate the DM2 Petroleum Insights ERP software with the SMARTruck dispatch and onboard truck management system from SMARTLogix. The partnership provides a fully integrated, all-digital (paperless) system that seamlessly links the order-management and delivery sides of a petroleum distributor's business.

Integration of the companies' products provides an end-to-end solution that simplifies the petroleum distribution process from order through delivery and invoicing. It streamlines organization, tracking and control of delivery transactions; eliminates paper flow; and provides accurate and timely invoicing. It also makes it easier for distributors to expand geographically with little or no need to add office space or staff.

The combined solution is already in place at several sites, and continued development will further reduce the number of human touchpoints' involved for all types of deliveries, said Scott Burkard, DM2 Software's president. With other automation components from DM2, such as the Supplier Pricing and Invoices modules, and electronic funds transfer for both purchase and sales transactions, the petroleum distributor really can pursue a people-less' and paper-less' operation.

Anywhere a person has to touch the transaction is something we view as a gap, he added. SMARTLogix helps us close a significant gap.
