The Answer Company & Sage 300

    VANCOUVER, BC, August 12, 2020 /24-7PressRelease/ -- We at The Answer Company are happy to announce that we have worked with long-time partner Flying Dust First Nation on the implementation of a new ERP that will help support their growth.

The Flying Dust First Nation is a Cree First Nation band government located in Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan. Over its long history, Flying Dust Nation has developed a reputation as a progressive and strong community, with a school, health clinic, bank, radio station, hockey arena and more. In addition, they have entered various strategic partnerships, growing their portfolios to include property development, farming, and a sand & gravel operation.

It's Worked So Well For So Long

With such diversified operations, Flying Dust First Nation requires a highly flexible, broad, and robust business management solution. For many years, that solution has been Sage 300, backed by the professional consulting team at The Answer Company.

"We actually started with the predecessors to Sage 300 back around 1980," recalls Gerald Durocher, Finance Manager for Flying Dust First Nation. "We've stayed with it for the simple reason that it continues to work for us."

Over the years, The Answer Company has helped Flying Dust First Nation improve their efficiency with technology, one of which is Electronic Funds Transfer, or EFT. EFT processing transfers payments electronically to vendors through the transfer functionality of the organization's banking software.

Another feature that proved extremely helpful was Sage 300's ability to download bank statements directly into the Bank Reconciliation module. "We have many bank accounts so this feature is a huge time saver for us," Durocher says. "It also allows us to have a daily picture of our accounts and cash flow, which is very important to our operations."

The brand loyalty continues to the organization's business partner. "We've been with The Answer Company the whole time," Durocher notes. "Sure, the personnel have changed along the way, but through consistent leadership they still provide valuable support to us."
