ASSOCIATED COMPUTER SOLUTIONS (PTY) LTD
Computer in Sandton

Our core focus has remained the development, implementation and support of ACS-Embrace, a comprehensive, locally developed end-to-end ERP business solution. Backed by over 30 years of on-going research and development, consulting and expert experience, the Embrace software solution has grown and evolved into an established, all embracing solution with the ability and flexibility to meet clients’ unique and specific requirements. Catering for all the needs of corporations with multiple companies, branches, manufacturing plants and warehouses, Embrace provides the agility of structure and control required by today's diverse organisations. ACS-Embrace has been delivering world class business solutions to some of our continent’s leading companies, across a broad, diverse spectrum of industries, which include the financial, pharmaceutical, automotive, service, supply chain, rental, electronics and trading sectors, covering all aspects of the business environment. This is all backed by a comprehensive in-house support and client service team. We have dedicated experienced and expert teams to assist with every phase of the project, from the ERP investigation and purchasing cycle, the development of the project plan, through needs analysis, training and implementation to on-going system support and development. Our knowledgeable business and system consultants meet with you to establish, define and understand your business processes. All the data is collected, collated and a model of the proposed solution is built. An experienced Project Manager is assigned to the Project and a comprehensive Project Plan drawn up. The plan includes everything from an in-depth Needs and Gap analysis, data conversions, data entry, through to verifying hardware and network requirements, as well as resource and timeline management. Proven methodologies ensure successful, on-time project delivery. Once assured that the system is bedded down and successfully working as planned, ownership passes from the project team to the Embrace Customer Services Team. A comprehensive support infrastructure ensures that all the services required to keep your Embrace ERP Solution running smoothly, efficiently and optimally are readily available as and when you need them. Additional Embrace Modules are available to meet most of these requirements. Alternatively, our Professional Services Team will meet with you to further tailor or customise the solution, ensuring that all current and future needs are met. Client needs and customisations are constantly evaluated in the product development cycle, encouraging active participation in the process. Because we recognise that change is the only constant, our flexible structures ensure that your software solution can grow and adapt, protecting your investment well into the future. Exploring the world of ERP Business Solutions can be a daunting adventure. Drawing up and finalising a short list for evaluation can be quite a challenge. Our professional Projects Team is the driving force behind the successful implementation of our ACS-Embrace Business Solution. Our dedicated team consists of Project Managers, Business Analysts, Industry Specialists, Programmers and Trainers. They have a wealth of experience and expertise and are responsible for new user (first time) Embrace Business Solution Implementations, as well as new Embrace module implementations, upgrades and business re-engineering projects at existing sites. Our track record shows that we understand best business practice in terms of delivery and implementation of solutions. The ACS-Embrace Research and Development Team is both custodian of the existing ACS-Embrace versions, and the visionaries for the future developments.
