Community Living Thunder Bay Selects Altus Canada

Toronto, ON, August 25, 2009- Altus Dynamics, a top provider of enterprise solutions for Nonprofit, Education and Governmental organizations, is pleased to announce the addition of Community Living Thunder Bay to its growing list of clients in the nonprofit sector.

Community Living Thunder Bay (CLTB) operates under a chapter issued on October 22nd, 1954 in response to parents brought together by their concern about lack of educational opportunities for their children. Their efforts during the next two decades contributed to the production of a landmark commitment on the part of the Ontario government to community-based services in 1974. Since then, CLTB has moved from a program model to one which endeavors to be responsive to individuals with developmental disabilities, and to further enhance their inter-dependence and quality of life. The range of services CLTB offers today for children, adults and their families include integrated day care services, community living and social opportunities support. CLTB strives to ensure that services are designated for the individual and focus on his or her strengths, needs and choices.

CLTB will be implementing Microsoft Dynamics NAV in the areas of financial management, budgeting, job/project costing and scheduling, with additional functionality in human resources and payroll.

“We chose Altus Dynamics’s solution because we required a single fully integrated application to help us run our operations seamlessly from end to end; furthermore, we required a true solution for our organization which is scalable, secure and flexible enough to cope with our future requirements easily and cost effectively. Altus’s solution exceeded our expectations,” explains Sandra Buosi, Director of Finance at CLTB. “However, the solution itself was not enough; we wanted to align ourselves with a true partner and an organization that clearly understood and could address our requirements. Altus’s focus and experience in the not-for-profit market was evident in our discussions with them, and the satisfaction levels of similar organizations to ours highly impressed us.”

“Community living and regional residential organisations need a cost-effective option that can cope with business changes on the fly without losing any of its stability, robustness or system wide security features,” says Nicola Dickinson, Partner at Altus Dynamics. “By fulfilling the needs of Community Living Thunder Bay with one integrated system, Altus can help ensure that the end result streamlines their operation and empowers their staff to fulfill their mission.”
