Professional Advantage and Infor FMS SunSystems have an enviable track record of Financial Management Solutions (FMS) for the public sector. Over the last 14 years we have gained extensive experience with Federal, State and Local government clients.
Infor FMS SunSystems software is the only approved mid-market FMS approved by NSW government (GSAS period contract 2322). Our selection was based on an exhaustive two year evaluation of all leading FMS solutions available in Australia.
(Note: This contract and related software discounts are available to most non-profit organisations and government departments throughout Australia, by application to the NSW Department of Commerce).
Infor FMS SunSystems is also the largest provider of FMS solutions to the British public sector.
Through our experience, Professional Advantage has developed a strong understanding of the issues facing government agencies and statutory authorities. This experience is also reflected in the functionality incorporated within Infor FMS SunSystems software.
