, Senior CRM Consultant at Concentrix, commented "We're really excited about the LSIS project. It's not just about implementing a new CRM system; we're combining two Microsoft Dynamics CRM systems where the original aims, the way they were set up and the way they currently work are very different."

"Concentrix is very good at the technical stuff, but on top of this, and I think what sets us apart, are our soft-skills and partnership approach. For example, we'll be providing practical support for LSIS at every stage of the project. We'll have Concentrix staff on-site and we'll be taking steps to drive user adoption throughout the deployment."

The new CRM system is a transformational project for LSIS which will have far-reaching benefits throughout the organisation. As well as realising the full potential of Microsoft Dynamics CRM functionality and their current data, the system will help LSIS become fully responsive to developing and changing requirements, increase productivity through process automation and support ongoing process improvement.
