Accredited Supported Living Services Selects Altus to Implement a New Business Management Solution Toronto, ON, March 10, 2009- Accredited Supported Living Services Ltd (ASLS), an emerging supported and assisted living nonprofit in Alberta has selected Altus Dynamics, a leading provider of Enterprise Solutions for Nonprofit, Education and Governmental organizations, as their partner to implement the Altus Dynamics Supported & Assisted Living (SAL) solution suite. ASLS was established in 1969, and provides support to individuals with a variety of disabilities through many important services such as independent living services, residential services and family support. The agency offers services throughout the Northwest region of Alberta. ASLS will be implementing the Altus Dynamics SAL solution suite powered by Microsoft Dynamics® NAV, in the areas of financial management, human resources and payroll, web portals for financial reporting and inquiries, and training management. "It was becoming apparent that our existing system was problematic in several areas," says Terry Websdale, Finance Manager at ASLS. "It was not user intuitive in the way that Altus Dynamics is to a Microsoft Office user. It was difficult to drill into transaction details, and to track to the highly detailed program level that our government funders are increasingly asking for. Payroll was becoming labour intensive for our accounting staff and further detail tracking was out of the question. With many employees performing a multitude of roles with provincial and federal government funders we had to find a system that could handle our complex payroll and human resources requirements. We chose Altus Dynamics SAL because we were impressed by the user friendly interface, the tremendous flexibility which allows for customizations to help us keep pace with our changing industry, and the capability to track so much more than just financial transactions. Bottom line, we believe that this software will improve our operations." "The Altus Dynamics SAL solution suite has been specifically designed for supported living type organizations such as ASLS that work on a distributed model," says Nicola Dickinson, Founding Partner at Altus Dynamics. "User-friendly web-based portals for handling training and human resources will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of ASLS operations by giving senior staff quick and easy access to critical business information from employees out in the field. We're looking forward to working with ASLS, and are confident that we can deliver the depth of functionality that they require." About Altus Dynamics
