"We conducted an extensive research and review of a number of enterprise solutions, ultimately choosing Epicor for its ability to address our specific needs," said Francis Yam, chief financial officer for Contempo. "We expect that Epicor Financials will provide Contempo with tighter transactional controls and the scalability for our vertical and horizontal growth.
