Cargas Announces Strategic Reorganization to Support Business Growth
Lancaster, Pennsylvania – July 1, 2020 – Cargas is pleased to announce a strategic reorganization of its company into four business units.
- ERP—dedicated to the resale, implementation, and support of accounting and ERP products from Sage and Microsoft and future ERP products.
- CRM—dedicated to the resale, implementation, and support of Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM and future CRM and marketing automation products.
- Development Solutions—dedicated to the development of fully custom solutions, as well as custom integrations between applications for the company’s resale products.
- Cargas Energy—dedicated to the development, sale, implementation, and support of Cargas Energy, proprietary software for fuel delivery and HVAC service companies.
Cargas was previously organized into three business units based on product brand: Sage Intacct (representing Sage products), Business Solutions (representing Microsoft products and custom solutions), and Cargas Energy (representing the company’s proprietary software for the energy industry).
The reorganization centralizes the Sage and Microsoft ERP products under one business unit and launches separate business units with focused leadership for CRM products and custom development services.
The new structure better fits Cargas’ current product offerings and growth strategies, is more scalable, and allows for a more unified, consultative sales and services strategy, which will lead to a better customer experience.
“We are positioning our business for the future, creating a more effective framework to grow and serve our customers,” said Nate Scott, President & CEO. “Since Cargas started selling software in 1993, we’ve added multiple resale products, developed proprietary software for the energy industry, created custom solutions ranging from integrations to full-fledged operational software, and built partnerships with a network of add-on software providers. Reorganizing our team around product and industry categories (ERP, CRM, etc.) will give us dedicated focus in each area and make it easier to add new products in the future. Representing multiple products in a category allows our sales team to adopt a more consultative strategy, working with customers to understand their needs and recommending the best solution from our offerings.”
