Tacony Corporation of St. Louis, Missouri has selected the "next-generation" enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution to increase business efficiency and streamline processes for overall performance: the Epicor ERP version 10, from Epicor Software Corporation, a provider of software solutions for manufacturing, distribution, retail and services organizations. 

Founded in 1946 by Nick Tacony, Tacony Corporation is a privately held manufacturing and distribution company operating in four strategic business units: sewing, home floor care, ceiling fans and commercial floor care. The company has 13 offices worldwide and nine distribution centers. In addition, Tacony Corporation manufactures vacuum cleaners, sewing furniture and commercial cleaning products in several facilities: Ft. Worth, Texas; St. James, Missouri; West Chicago, Illinois; and Southampton, England.

The newest release of Epicor ERP, launched at Insights 2014, will provide 500 users at Tacony Corporation with a scalable business management system. Based on the principles of collaboration, choice, responsiveness, simplicity and mobility, Epicor ERP is designed to help organizations work better, both internally and externally, leveraging the knowledge and experience of the people and systems connected together throughout the supply chain.

With a streamlined experience across multiple devices and expanded deployment choices — on premises, cloud or managed service — Epicor ERP delivers a consistent experience, in a single solution. The new touch-enabled, intuitive user interface (UI) is designed from the ground up to work with touch screen devices — empowering users to work the way they want.

“Tacony is looking forward to all the benefits that Epicor ERP will bring to our business,” said Kristi Tacony Humes, executive vice president for Tacony. “We were impressed by its 100 percent .NET environment, data migration tools, and the social and mobile aspects, as well as the fully featured single solution and the robust training that was available. Epicor made sense for our business today and as we grow in the future.”

“We are pleased that Tacony Corporation has selected Epicor ERP version 10 to take their business to the next level of success,” added Donna Troy, executive vice president and general manager, ERP Americas for Epicor. “With Epicor ERP, companies gain a technology platform that will support them as they conduct business today and in the future — on any device, anytime, anywhere in the world.”
