CHICAGO & FRANKFURT--(Business Wire)--
BigMachines, Inc., the leading provider of on-demand configuration and proposal
software, announced today that CCS, Inc. has selected BigMachines to provide
on-demand software to streamline quote and order processes for its sales of
industrial computers and enclosures. CCS will also be using BigMachines for its
subsidiary, Qualtrax, Inc. that provides compliance management software. 

CCS manufactures computers, environmental enclosures and rugged monitors for
demanding industrial applications. Qualtrax provides document and process
control software to industries who must comply with stringent regulatory
standards, such as ISO and FDA. The company has been integrating best-of-breed
systems to support their growing business, including Microsoft Dynamics CRM and
Microsoft Dynamics GP. After evaluating several applications for their front-end
implementation, they selected BigMachines. 

"BigMachines is a very flexible solution that can be integrated to leverage the
existing architecture between our Microsoft CRM and ERP systems," said Tim
Lawson, CFO, CCS. "We looked at other products, but we were impressed with the
capabilities of the BigMachines application and its tight integration with our
existing systems. With BigMachines, our sales team will be able to streamline
the quoting process." 

BigMachines announced complete integration with Microsoft Dynamics CRM earlier
this year. This extends BigMachines` integration options to include three of the
fastest-growing CRM vendors: salesforce.com, Oracle and Microsoft. BigMachines
will be demonstrating its SaaS-based selling platform at the Microsoft Worldwide
Partner Conference in New Orleans, July 13-16, in Booth 1100. 

"We are delighted that CCS has selected BigMachines to streamline their sales
processes," said Godard Abel, CEO and co-founder of BigMachines. "In adding
BigMachines software to its portfolio, CCS will enhance its own sales
efficiencies and create even greater value for its business. We pride ourselves
on the great relationships we have with our customers and look forward to
working with CCS through a swift implementation and delivering rapid ROI."
