The ERP leader looks to expand on innovative capabilities and customer success in the new year
VAI, a leading ERP software developer, announced a new brand vision for 2023, helping enterprises across the hardgoods, food, and pharmaceutical markets expand their business with its flagship ERP solution, S2K Enterprise, and cloud subsidiary, VAI Cloud. For the past two years, VAI achieved significant year-over-year growth in its customer base, with revenue of approximately 50 million USD and a significant number of new customers selecting S2K Enterprise to run in VAI Cloud to gain security and scalability for their ERP needs.
VAI’s new vision for 2023 will focus on expanding sales and marketing capabilities to target enterprise-level distributors who want to scale operations with ERP technology and automate S2K applications in a secure, cloud-based environment. Some of these enterprise-level distributors include Vets Purchasing, G.W. Berkenheimer, and Drogueria Betances, who implemented S2K Enterprise in 2022. To support organizations of this size, VAI plans to roll out version 6.3 of S2K Enterprise for its hardgoods solution in 2023, with applications such as mobile order entry, analytics with business intelligence, supply and demand planning, WMS, and Smart Center with seamless integration from one pane of glass.
