October Almost Slipped Away

Howdy from Texas,

October almost slipped away from me without a single blog posting!  Apologies to one and all.  No excuse, except that the entire Synchro ERP team has been as busy as a one armed paper hanger!  It has been a whirlwind of a month, but a good month at that as we have continued to add new customers to the fold!  Customers come first at Synchro ERP!  I've actually got writers cramp from signing so many quotes as the software only for metalcasters is that good.

At this years show, our MD/CEO demonstrated the future of metalcasting software with Google Glasses for "Shop Floor Vision".




This is a a picture of Leland and his lovely wife.



The team met up at the ICI 2014 Expo where we said goodbye to Leland Martin as he is entering into the wonderful world of retirement.


I really enjoy the ICI as so many of our investment casting customers stop by for a visit and tell us all of the good "stuff" they are doing with the software and how it has really helped move their business along.   


I have a new camera and got to play with the panoramic feature which I really like!





As per usual, some people see fire hydrants, Corvettes, and man hole covers, being a foundryman, I see CASTINGS.






It is always good to catch up with our MD/CEO Chris Collins and Global Implementation Manager Simon Adlington.  We make quite a team!


I myself am a man of many talents as I hoover the floor....  Reminds me of a chimney sweep.


After the ICI, Simon and I hustled over to Palm Springs California for the NFFS show, and boy what a time we had.  Jared and his folks know how to put on a spread.



The Synchro booth, as usual, per the hard work of our Sales & Marketing Director Barbara Nolan Collins and her right hand Bianca Catherall, the booth looked great.


A good time was had by all, and we did sign yet another contract as a result of the show!

Of course, while Simon and I were sipping wine and eating posh steak, the support crew of Lee Mahon, Jon Mapp, and everyone else were doing the "per standard" bang up job of keeping the support desk humming along.  Without their tireless dedication and vast knowledge, none of this would be possible.  And of course, while all of this was going on, Jean-Marie was in the Oceanic region for the AFI! 

Well, I will leave you with just a smidgen more of some pictures from Palm Springs and until next time, see you down the road in November.
