The Fin Machine Company is a market-leading manufacturer of special-purpose capital equipment used within the global automotive industry. According to current estimations, two out of three car radiators are built on the company’s machines.

Since its formation in the mid-eighties, The Fin Machine Company has steadily expanded its capabilities and today offers a full in-house design and manufacturing service, staffed by a team of mechanical, electrical and software engineers.

In looking for a more powerful business solution, The Fin Machine Company thoroughly researched the market, reviewing major and bespoke providers. After consultations with Pinnacle Computing, The Fin Machine Company purchased Sage 200 Commercials running under Windows 2003 and using a SQL Server database.

Over a year since the implementation, The Fin Machine Company can now gather information at a number of different levels and react very quickly. Visibility of timely data has been extended across the organisation; it has become much easier to open up information to the departments at summary level, for managers to interrogate further in the detail they require.
