Sunrise Technologies, a worldwide provider of ERP and BI consulting services, announced today that longtime customer, Hooker Furniture, had completed the final phase of its Microsoft Dynamics AX implementation. This final go-live marks the end of a successful effort to consolidate multiple divisional ERP systems into a single Tier 1 ERP so that the organization could provide ‘one face to the customer.’
“We are pleased to have realized our vision of One Company, now that Hooker and it’s upholstery divisions are running on a single platform,” said Charlene Bowling, CIO of Hooker Furniture, “Our partnership with Sunrise was instrumental in achieving this vision while disrupting the business as little as possible. As an organization, we believe we now have a core system which will serve us well for many years to come.”
Over the course of the project, Hooker Furniture implemented full financials and supply chain functionality with Microsoft Dynamics AX, including manufacturing, shop floor control, warehousing, product configurations, and eCommerce integrations across its brands. Several key business processes, including Hooker’s Cover Plant and Customer Service Team, were able to see success the first day after go-live.
“Charlene, Paul [Toms, Chairman and CEO of Hooker Furniture] and their entire team have been a pleasure to work with. I know we look forward to supporting their implementation and any further initiatives,” said John Pence, President of Sunrise Technologies.
