Panorama Consulting Group, an independent ERP consulting firm, today announced record growth for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Panorama’s service revenue increased 68% in 2009 from the previous year ended December 31, 2008. This revenue spike supported a corresponding increase in profits of 233%. In addition to the record revenue and profits, Panorama was able to increase overall headcount by over 100%.
“Our strong 2009 results are attributed to particular growth and strength in our ERP implementation and organizational change management practice areas. While we grew across many sectors and industries, collaborations with mid-size clients contributed to most of our growth,” states Eric Kimberling, Founder and President of Panorama. “Strong growth in a weak economy is a testament to the value and objectivity we bring to our clients. More than ever, clients are turning to us to help them manage business risk, control costs, and optimize business benefits of their investments in ERP and enterprise software. In many cases, companies with challenged ERP implementations are turning to Panorama to get their initiatives back on track. ”
Panorama’s growth was facilitated by the addition of a number of new clients. These new client engagements included Champion Window, Maxon Lift Corporation, dpiX, Bioness, and Penworthy for ERP software selection and Nufarm and Focus on the Family for ERP implementation. In addition to the ERP selection and implementation projects, Panorama also led Focus on the Family through an organizational change management project and Alliance Laundry Systems through an organizational readiness assessment.
Panorama’s sales pipeline is strong, and Kimberling expects growth to continue throughout the 2010 fiscal year. It is estimated that 2010 will bring an additional year-to-year growth of 135%, and there is the potential for this figure to increase even further.
Panorama Consulting Group’s service offering includes independent ERP software selection, ERP implementation and execution, and organizational change management consulting.

Panorama Consulting Group Helps Maxon Select a New ERP Software System With Their PERFECT Fit Software Selection Methodology
Denver, Colorado – Panorama Consulting Group, an independent ERP consulting firm, today announced the successful completion of an ERP selection project for Maxon Lift Corporation, a leading manufacturer of lift gates, headquartered in Santa Fe Springs, California.

The company offers its products through its distributor network, including leasing companies, private fleets, OEMs, and distributors in the Americas.
“Maxon had had very poor experiences with consultants in the past. I believe that Panorama went a long way to improving the image of consultants everywhere. The big difference that I saw was the usefulness of the team’s deliverables. The Board saw that the deliverables were actionable, which is something they were missing from other consultants,” states Bill Moore, Vice President of Enterprise Improvement at Maxon Lift Corporation. “I appreciate the integrity that Panorama showed. Panorama stayed impartial throughout the process and made sure we were looking at the right data and in the right way.”
Khalid Morris, Senior ERP Consultant at Panorama Consulting Group led Maxon’s ERP selection project. Mr. Morris is a senior member of Panorama’s software selection team and has expertise in a variety of ERP software packages.
