A Global Software, Inc. Case Study
Unaka Corporation, a diversified manufacturer and supplier founded in 1950 and based in Greenville, Tennessee, struggled with manual, time‑consuming budgeting and reporting across multiple locations and databases. With seven users on MAPICS/XA 9.0 and decentralized operations, the company needed a secure, faster way to build, consolidate and distribute budgets and add calculations beyond standard Excel.
Global Software implemented its Budget Accelerator, Spreadsheet Server and Distribution Manager with a three‑day training and conversion of static spreadsheets. The solution automated data pulls, secure multi‑user input and report distribution, provided unlimited month‑end support, and enabled faster consolidation and decision‑making in a familiar Excel environment — freeing time for analysis and strategic planning.
