IBM Platform Integration Dramatically Increases the Power of VAI’s S2K Enterprise Resource Planning Software Suite
IBM Power Systems unifies the System i and the System p to enhance performance
RONKONKOMA, N.Y.--VAI (Vormittag Associates, Inc.) (http://www.vai.net), a leader in enterprise solutions for the distribution, manufacturing, retail and service industries, and an IBM Premier Business Partner, today announced that IBM’s integration of the System i and System p enterprise platforms into the Power Systems product portfolio gives VAI’s S2K Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Software Suite a significant power boosting benefit.
The IBM Power™ Systems unifies the IBM System i, with the UNIX operating system platform, IBM System p. Customers that previously operated the System i can now enhance performance and energy efficiency, by transferring essential data to the new systems, while continuing to run operating systems to which they have become accustomed.
For VAI, the Power Systems launch enhances the processing power of its S2K product line. In particular, the company’s e-Commerce and analysis applications will benefit from the increased speed and precision of the unified platforms. VAI’s S2K Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Software Suite maximizes productivity and profitability by centralizing company data and helping businesses make well-informed decisions — crucial to successfully competing on the international market. With the integration of the System i and the System p, VAI’s already robust software package will offer customers the flexibility to add features and functions at a competitive price.
“The System i and System p unification is a logical decision by IBM that reflects the growing needs businesses have for accurate information that is available quickly and reliably,” said Kevin Beasley, CIO, VAI. “VAI is excited to offer our customers the additional capabilities secured with the Power Systems integration. This move fits perfectly with VAI’s corporate vision, where addressing the full spectrum of customer needs is our number one concern.”
