Gamestop, a customer of K3 was recently honoured by Microsoft® with a 2007 Customer Excellence Award for outstanding business achievements. Gamestop received recognition for its Customer Excellence Award for Retail Industry Leadership at Convergence 2007 Copenhagen, an annual Microsoft customer conference.
The Customer Excellence Awards, established in 1997, are presented yearly and recognize Microsoft Dynamics customers that have achieved notable accomplishments with their Microsoft Dynamics applications. Microsoft Dynamics customers, partners and team members contributed Customer Excellence Award nominations.
The 2007 Customer Excellence Awards were presented in 12 categories: Education, Environmental Sustainability, Evangelism, Innovation, International Implementation, Microsoft Technologies, Distribution Industry Leadership, Manufacturing Industry Leadership, Public Sector Industry Leadership, Retail Industry Leadership, Services Industry Leadership and Overall Excellence.
Gamestop was selected for the Customer Excellence Award for Retail Industry Leadership because of its innovative use of Microsoft technologies to deliver measurable benefits to its organization and customers.
GameStop Europe, part of GameStop, the largest specialist retailer of video games in the world, selected K3’s retail management system to manage all stores in Europe, Canada and Australia.
The £2 million contract was awarded against stiff competition from a number of US and Global IT vendors, but GameStop chose K3 following the success of the solution in its Irish stores, where Microsoft Dynamics NAV manages the whole product sales cycle, from purchasing to store allocation.
K3 are installing a Microsoft Dynamics NAV central system covering Inventory Management, Merchandising, Replenishment, Warehousing & Distribution, and Financial Management for these regions and managing the data from thousands of stores.
Paul Makin, Sales Director, K3 said, "We are delighted to be part of an award winning team. Gamestop selected K3 because they were impressed by our team, insights and the depth of our experience in large scale and complex implementations and this award more than proves that we have lived up to their expectations".
