Company Growth
• The Version One products have enabled growth of the centre without large increases in staff numbers• In April this year Johnston Press purchased Regional
Independent Media, who publish over 50 titles. This meant a substantial increase in all areas of our business, but particularly in the quantity of purchase ledger invoices we needed to process. The methods used within JP were implemented in 10 major sites within RIM. Within 2 months of the takeover we were processing an additional 5000 documents per month with the addition of only 2 staff at JAC.

New Projects
• We currently have 4 new projects in progress involving DbForm and DbArchive.• Laser Cheques

The EndOr is it.
So far we have not found anything that Version One cannot do in their software and we have given them plenty to work on. I’m sure there will be more ideas in the future.
