Our specialist bakery software has been developed to run exclusively on IBM AS/400 (iSeries) The iSeries is a true business machine, capable of supporting many (10s-100s-1000s) of concurrent users. Computer hardware and our software being priced accordingly has meant that we market mainly to larger bakeries. With advent of ADSL Broadband has provided us with the possibility of widen our marketing to encompass smaller businesses who could benefit from the more comprehensive type of software we provide.

Our CERES application covers the main areas of business control (see attached list of modules) the notable exceptions being Payroll and Human Resources which we believe are best handled by specialist software.

The CERES software is provided on as an all inclusive rental “As Used” service. There is an initial “Set Up” charge which would cover initial on site training and implementation of the Sales Order Processing / Sales ledger and possibly Nominal Ledger and Purchase Ledger. Ongoing Rental would be calculated on a weekly basis per active customer delivery address, therefore as the business increases or decreases this would be reflected in the cost.

We believe that charging in this way enables our users to benefit from the increased control which our software provides, using their existing PCs and Broadband, without the need for a large capital outlay. Charges will be known in advance and can therefore be budgeted for out of revenue. Another advantage in using our central host server is that we look after system tasks such as Backups. At our base we have multiple machines and although we cannot guarantee we will never get a breakdown we at least have a spare machine always available. With regard to the broadband connection here again we cannot give a 100% guarantee of connection but over the past 18 months using this method we have not had any significant outages.

Please bear the following points in mind when comparing this solution to your present hardware, software and software support costs.

1. There is no initial software outlay
2. The scope of the software
3. We provide Host server
4. We undertake all system tasks including backups
5. Telephone support included
6. You provide and pay for your Broadband connection.
7. You provide PCs & compatible Printers
