Your 6 selection criteriaTo guide you towards the right solution for your business

Functional CoverageThere is a wide variety of business software solutions but each company has different characteristics and needs. It is important to check that your Business Solutions partner meets your requirements through its industry solutions and industry know-how.

Technology Choosing the right platform is an important consideration. There are more choices than ever; Microsoft, Oracle, Apple and even Google/Linux. Considerations include familiarity, longevity, innovation and security.

InnovationCloud, mobility, collaborative portals and social networks have become essential to business productivity and market penetration. They allow you to communicate with customers, suppliers, partners and employees in a simple, intuitive, seamless and secure environment.

International availabilityOnly some ERP solutions are specifi cally designed with the requirements of international companies in mind. You should check that your geographical and linguistic needs are available in the packages you evaluate.

Application structure and dataApplication solutions vary technically in many respects. It is important to understand the principles and constraints if you want to fulfi l your requirements, for example: single instance, multi legislation, multi-company.

Project methodologyRecent surveys show that ERP and CRM projects generally fail; they are late, run over budget and do not achieve the users original vision. Understanding the main reasons behind the lack of success, and having a methodology that tackles those challenges head-on will ensure your project is one of the successful ones.

suite by prodwareThe ability to respond quickly to the changing environment is what gives a holiday park operator their competitive advantage. The Business Intelligence solution by Prodware gives organisational wide reporting and analysis to support the key decision making process.

Using the Business Intelligence and reporting suite, managers can access information such as rental occupancy reports and unit sales reports securely and in real-time. Notifications can be configured to alert management when margins and sales targets fall out of predetermined variables, allowing them to respond immediately to adverse trends.

Document ManagementThe traditional periodic invoicing of rates, site fees, utilities and insurance is one that has witnessed a steady increase in postage costs over recent years. The Prodware Document Management solution reduces this cost to a minimum, as it allows for these invoices to be created in a batch process and securely distributed electronically in a branded PDF document to each owner.

Access to customer related documents such as purchase agreements or signed site licenses is also improved with the ability to hold these documents in a secure centralised searchable location.

suite by prodwareOnce you have sound processes and systems in place, it is time to take advantage of Mobility to deliver those assets to your mobile workforce, whether they be park managers, sales managers or maintenance teams

Using industrial strength platforms (Windows Mobile, Android, iPhone etc.) capable of operating any number of devices, Prodware can configure a mobile solution to meet the needs of the remote workers, seamlessly integrating them with the core ERP and CRM systems, ensuring business efficiency and agility.

HR & PayrollThe fully integrated HR and Payroll suite from Prodware delivers an efficient and effective platform for all HR and Payroll requirements of a park operator. The solution has been HMRC recognised and HMRC accredited, providing extensive functionality which significantly reduces the administrative burden incumbent in running the payroll process for remote workers and employees in different pay cycles.

Full auto-enrolment functionality will take away the burden of administering your pension schemes, from the assessment procedure to the calculation and file submission to the production of letters, all aspects are catered for.

Electronic, password protected PDF payslips can be emailed to your employees, reducing or eliminating the cost of stationary, postage and people time allowing you to receive return on investment within a short period of time.

Customer PortalUtilising the feature rich portal solutions from Prodware, customers have direct access to their account information where they can reprint documents, pay invoices, make and amend bookings or request services such as drain downs, maintenance jobs or gas bottle delivery. All transactions completed within the portal are automatically transferred into the underlying application removing the need for employee intervention.

Unit Sales and Reservation OptimisationA feature developed to streamline the sales process is known internally as the ‘dealmaker’, which ensures that sales are performed as easily and profitably as possible. It is a wizard-driven sales module, guiding the salesperson through the necessary stages for a sale whilst providing flexibility for owner specific requirements. The dealmaker allows the salesperson to view the profit of a potential sale, and shows the implications of different owner choices on the profit of the deal. It even allows discounts to be made whilst ensuring that the deal meets an appropriate profit margin, in accordance to the operators dealing rules. All deal related documents can be printed and signed by the customer at point of sale.

The Reservation Management module has been designed to support the maximisation of revenue to the business. The ability to drive special offers, integrate to third party booking agents, automatically optimise the unit allocation and the functionally rich on-line booking portal are some key components that drive increased occupancy and customer spend.
