While all of us were obviously elated with our early accomplishments, it was very scary at the same time. After all, how were we to know if our growth was going to be sustainable and how aggressive we should be in our expansion plans? How does one manage rapid growth for a company with no real track record? How is inventory managed? As we expanded our operations to multiple locations, the challenges only increased. On the one hand, we didn't want to limit growth by being too conservative but we also didn't want to miss the opportunity by being too aggressive either.
The first step towards doing this was to put systems in place to help us manage our business. Right from the start, we knew that we needed an integrated business management software system to manage and make the most out of our resources. We needed a way to manage our inventory intelligently. We needed to get the most out of each dollar we had tied up in stock.
