Packhouse software specialists ABC Software have created a comprehensive packhouse software solution called ABC Pack.
The software encompasses Bin Delivery, Grading Batch/Run, Palletising, Inventory Management, Sales Orders, Despatch and Invoicing.
Each of these modules can be customised to your needs, and additionally new modules can be developed, such as Grower Payments.
“It’s packing software made to fit your processes and unique business requirements,” says Business Development Manager, Chris Shakeshaft.
“Our team has spent the last 18 months perfecting ABC Pack. The end result is a comprehensive solution that can then be customised to suit each individual packing operation no matter what they’re packing.”
Working with horticulture
ABC Software has been working alongside large horticultural organisations for many years.
A well-established respected technology company, ABC Software specialises in providing efficient, quality solutions in both Australia and New Zealand.
Sharon Chapman and Julie Gillies, co-owners of the company, are both IT professionals with many years experience in designing and building tailor made solutions.
Their aim is to make a real and positive difference to their customers’ businesses through software excellence and outstanding customer relations.
Relationship with Mr Apple NZ
“The relationship Mr Apple has with ABC Software is a type of business relationship a company is always looking for,” says Andrew van Workum, General Manager Mr Apple NZ Ltd.
“They work with us to find a solution rather than trying to tell us what we need.”
Four keys of success
All ABC Software’s solutions are designed with four keys of success in mind:
Efficiency—improved profitability and positioning for growth
Accuracy—having confidence in your data
Traceability—giving your customers confidence in your product
Visibility—real-time controls.
Working with One Harvest
“The efficiencies ABC’s software has created are game changers,” said Andrew Beard, IT Manager, One Harvest.
“At the completion of a day’s packing we can have the end-of-day process—including all reporting—done in ten to fifteen minutes.
“Prior to ABC’s software it would have taken hours.”
Understanding client requirements
“Understanding the diverse requirements of our clients and then developing solutions for them is what we do best,” says Ms Chapman.
A mantra of ABC Software is to deliver quality-centric business solutions. This means taking clients through a step-by-step process of their requirements to ensure the solution will meet their required outcomes.
ABC Software’s clients fully participate in the development process giving them confidence the solution is fit for purpose.
No obligation demonstration
At no obligation, ABC Pack can be demonstrated to allow a prospective client to see how the software functions and visualise/discuss how it may work in their organisation.
Once the unique requirements of the client have been identified, ABC Pack is tailored to suit, and delivered to the client.
ABC Software provides ongoing support and will continue to develop ABC Pack to meet the evolving needs of the client.
Working with Fruitpackers Co-op
“We have found the ABC Software team to be extremely adaptable to our changing needs and responsive to any changes we require during the season,” says Chris Dillon, General Manger, Fruitpackers (HB) Co-Operative Ltd.
