Construction businesses used to be notorious laggards when it comes to technology. That is, until the Cloud and Covid collided. Lack of workers and on-site challenges made this vertical adapt rather quickly – and every new application is in the cloud. However, there may be reasons (like the cost, the implementation time, or security policies), why some organizations are hesitant or unable to migrate their operations fully to the cloud. This is where Anterra’s suite of solutions comes into play — ADC + ABI offers the full benefit of the cloud without migrating.
ADC: SQL Replication for Sage 300 CRE
Anterra Data Center (ADC) is a game-changer for companies using Sage 300 CRE. ADC performs as a SQL Replicator, allowing reports to run in seconds instead of hours or days, effectively handling large datasets with unprecedented speed. This means that construction finance professionals can unlock hidden insights and make better-informed, strategic decisions without the need for a full cloud migration.
ABI: The BI in the CPM Platform
Complementing ADC is Anterra’s Corporate Performance Management (CPM) platform, which converts ERP accounting data into construction-specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). This platform applies the CPM processes and methodology, as defined by Gartner, to the unique needs of the construction sector, creating a suite of BI analytical applications that draw data from the ERP system of record. The result is a powerful business intelligence layer that revitalizes data with advanced analytics, dashboards, and reporting tools.
