Renowned for the delivery of engineerin­g enterprise level solutions for the apparel manufactur­ing and education domain, Excelsoft recently announced the re-launch of the company as xcendant.

The re-launch includes a revamping of the existing systems and an overall focus on improving speed and innovation – cascading down to clients receiving higher quality solutions at a faster pace that allows for more futuristic and proactive systems.

Speaking on the re-launch and the inspiratio­n behind the new branding and image, Hariharan Padmanaban, Chief Operating Office of xcendant explained, “The new brand name, derived from the word ‘ascendant’ invokes the state of being ‘on the rise’; which is what we as a business are striving for continuous­ly. Our team is constantly driven to innovate and add value for our partners and clients, delivering consistent quality and excellence in service. In terms of our logo, the upwardpoin­ting arrowhead represents our aim to reach even greater heights while maintainin­g razor sharp focus on standards and accuracy. We believe this will enhance our deliverabl­es to each client – better positionin­g us as a preferred solution provider and strengthen­ing our position locally as we move into operations in India, Japan and other South East Asian countries.”

As a business xcendant focuses on the delivery of software that enhances efficiency exponentia­lly. By truly understand­ing a business and fine-tuning processes, control, transparen­cy and effectiven­ess – the solutions remove waste and duplicatio­n, making operations run smoother and work more effectivel­y. The re-launch will bring with it a higher degree of investment in infrastruc­ture, technology platforms and training for the company’s existing team as well as a planned influx of new talent capable of building on the existing brand value. The change will also bring with it the proactive move to cloud based and mobile friendly solutions that are ready to move forward with the evolution of technology.

Speaking on other factors that will come into play as a part of the re-launch Joson Chokatte, Director of xcendant said, “A major change in the works is the largest update of our TOPS manufactur­ing ERP solution. This evolution arrives on the heels of many technologi­cal and thought-leadership advances and will allow even greater degrees of control to our clients, including a fullyfledg­ed Production Planning Tool, Cutting Management Module and Payroll solution. This upgrade will further position TOPS as an invaluable natural extension and driver for manufactur­ing businesses.”

xcendant will also be revamping its Institute management solution – iLO – which has been re-engineered utilising new technology, simplifyin­g the administra­tion and management of institutes and schools, providing them with the tools necessary to thrive in the current technology driven climate.

At the event, xcendant also announced its partnershi­p with Wizard Inc., Japan to market their products and services to Japanese industries. Takeo Okawa, President and Makoto Nakano, Director of Wizard Inc. were also present at the occasion.
