Summit new wins
RedSky IT, the largest specialist software provider to the construction, contracting and professional services markets has won a raft of new contracts as customers sign up for Summit financial software.
 | Contractor Carmac Building & Civil Engineering Ltd is a new customer for RedSky IT. The Northamptonshire-based civil engineering contractor wanted a construction specific software package and has opted for a five user Summit 3000 system. Robin Chappell, Finance Controller said: “I have previously worked with RedSky IT in a former job and I knew they would have exactly what we require.” |
 | Colburn Developments, a housebuilder based in Cirencester, has been a RedSky IT customer since 1999. It has recently upgraded to the Summit 3000 system for six users and aims to increase its turnover to £10m using the system. Finance Manager Mark Chambers said: “We’ve been really pleased with the Summit 2000 system and we want to continue improving on efficiency and our ability to get even more from the system in terms of cost management. An added draw is that Summit 3000 has an improved user interface and is delivered upon the Oracle Database 10g Express Edition – a powerful combination that helps future proof our investment.” |
 | Inspire Contracts Ltd is based in Cambridgeshire and is a general contractor with a focus on refurbishment and domestic extensions. The company has invested in a 2 user Summit 1000 system. Inspire is a recently set up business and had no software in place for accounts and contract costing. Their founder had previously used a RedSky IT system and knew that the system would work and be easy to use. |
 | Essex building contractor Bolt & Heeks Ltd has invested in a 3 user Summit system. The SME contractor used a generic financial system and needed the additional functionality that a construction specific system would give them. |
