What's New at CB Software Systems - September
We are pleased to announce the start of scheduling a new e-commerce / e-business project for Berk Enterprise. Berk has implemented our Distribution software at the beginning of this year and will soon start the implementation of this new business Internet project. The Great Lakes Group, the largest US flag tugboat company, has been a great client for many years, using our financial software to run their business. We are also pleased with the completion and launch of their new site www.thegreatlakesgroup.com. We have integrated the design of an outside firm with our in-house web development team. We coded the site, the database integration and content management system to enable The Great Lakes Group to easily update their web content.
