"The reports we produce in OpenHR are key to making informed management decisions. Producing them manually would be a highly time consuming and painstaking process. The system enables us to extract and manipulate information very easily and provide it in a manager’s required format, saving many hours each week since it was implemented."

“With intelligence about our products and their associated costs at our fingertips, we can investigate why one surgeon may be using products that are more expensive than another surgeon. We have the insight to ask questions and find answers so that we can make cost-conscious decisions.”

"A customer might tell us that they have not received an invoice and in the past, this would have meant that we would have spent time looking for it. V1 enables us to find the missing documents in seconds and send an electronic copy via email. The system and documents can be accessed by different teams within RCN and this means they are no longer as reliant on us as they were in the past."

"We chose Advanced for this complex and demanding migration as it had both the technical expertise to convert our OpenVMS applications to Windows and also its wellestablished migration methodology. They delivered on time and on budget."

"Advanced has enabled us to obtain the best value for money from its technology investment. As a charity it is critical that every ‘£’ spent on IT offers more than a ‘£’ back in benefit. The Advanced approach, that begins with aligning IT to business goals, has created the strategy and infrastructure to allow us to achieve this."

"We were also impressed by Advanced presence in the care market. This translated into a good understanding of our requirements, particularly in the key area of income processing."

"We knew that these features would increase the load on the OpenVMS Alpha systems and scalability was not going to be possible without a change of platform. Given the rich functionality of our MIDAS system, there was no viable package replacement. Migration, therefore, offered us a fast, costeffective, and low-risk solution."

"The use of Advanced Business Solutions eBIS functionality not only provides electronic access but is workflowenabled which increases productivity."

"With our migration to Windows we were able to deploy the application on a far more costeffective platform, while ensuring we could maintain the competitive advantage we gained from this bespoke system."
