JAMS Manufacturing for Acumatica delivers Advanced Manufacturing Software on the Microsoft Windows Azure Cloud

JAAS Systems migrates its leading mid-market manufacturing solution to the Acumatica Cloud so companies can access fully integrated accounting, distribution, and manufacturing

BETHESDA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Acumatica and JAAS Systems, providers of Cloud ERP software, today announced the availability of a fully integrated manufacturing, distribution, and accounting solution on the Windows Azure Cloud. Mid-sized manufacturing companies can use the solution to manage sales, inventory, material planning, master production schedules, and much more from a web-browser no matter where they are located.

“Several customers that were using our software to manage distribution wanted to extend the benefits of Cloud ERP to their manufacturing processes”

JAAS Systems developed JAMS Manufacturing for Acumatica using Acumatica’s web-based software development kit and Microsoft Visual Studio. The integration delivers a seamless user experience with a common user interface, integrated menus, and shared database elements.

“We took over 100 years of manufacturing software expertise and used Acumatica’s tools to move it to the Cloud in a few months,” said Fred Szumlic, General Manager at JAAS Systems. “Acumatica’s platform allowed us to inexpensively develop a web-based solution with fully integrated accounting and distribution. Windows Azure allowed us to meet customer demand by quickly launching a SaaS solution on the Cloud without the expense of building and managing a datacenter.”

JAMS Manufacturing for Acumatica integrates with the Acumatica Financial Suite, Distribution Suite, and Customer Management Suite to deliver a complete solution for make-to-stock, make-to-order, job-shop, and repetitive manufacturing companies. The entire solution can be run on a customer’s premise or deployed as a service in the Cloud to save money on initial deployment costs and ongoing maintenance.

“Windows Azure allows software companies to utilize their existing skills to develop Cloud applications without needing to worry about infrastructure, data replication, and scalability,” said Kim Akers, general manager for global ISV partners at Microsoft Corp. “Collaboration between Cloud ISVs such as Acumatica and JAAS Systems allows businesses to gain the benefits of the Cloud as well as the ability to integrate applications.”

“Several customers that were using our software to manage distribution wanted to extend the benefits of Cloud ERP to their manufacturing processes,” said Ezequiel Steiner, CEO of Acumatica. “By partnering with JAAS Systems we are able to deliver a complete manufacturing solution with access from anywhere, scalability, reduced maintenance, and deployment options.”
