FP McCann Case Study

Case Study

FP McCann

FP McCann is the UK’s largest manufacturer of precast concrete solutions. When the company needed a more powerful business management solution, we implemented Sage 200 along with Eque2 Construct and other bespoke developments.

Investing in Sage 200 and additional software meant FP McCann gained improved insights, with high quality reports that were invaluable to management. It boosted their efficiency by streamlining accounting and job costing processes and by enabling direct uploading of invoices, and ultimately gave the company greater visibility and improved financial control.
