Since 1985, NDS Systems has been setting the standard for enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions. The NDS ERP Oracle software application is specifically designed for small to mid-sized companies in the manufacturing, fulfillment and distribution industries. In May of 2009 NDS Systems announced a partnership with Virginia-based IT services firm Idexcel (www.idexcel.com). By combining strengths, NDS and Idexcel seek to help NDS customers improve their operational efficiencies and lower costs with their expanded set of services. In November 2010 NDS released a new product line called Cync. The Cync Application Suite was developed for the financial services industry, primarily for those in the commercial and asset-based lending markets. Cync is an innovative loan monitoring application that allows banks, asset-based lenders or other capital providers to view borrowers' loan-supporting financial records 24/7 from anywhere via a secured internet connection.
