Mark Hughes, Epicor Regional Vice President, UK & Ireland said:
“We were excited to be able to hold our UK customer event in person this year, showcasing some of our customers’ wonderful successes in driving growth and profitability through technology adoption and innovation. Congratulations to all our worthy Excellence Award winners.”
Epicor’s UK Customer Excellence Award winners included:
Tech Leader of the Year (Manufacturing) Award - Richard Kelley of Variohm Holdings for embracing the latest technologies in Epicor Kinetic deployed in the cloud, such as active homepages, dashboards, and Epicor Data Discovery, to improve collaboration throughout the organisation for data-driven decision-making.
Tech Leader of the Year (Distribution) Award - Jonathan Chard of Bradfords Building Supplies was awarded for the implementation of Bradford’s pioneering, completely digital, online credit application service which integrates with Epicor BisTrack.
Tech Innovator of the Year Award - Jos Greeve from Boers and Co.

Using Epicor IoT, Jos has integrated applications to create a single data vision for the organisation.
Finance Leader of the Year Award - Dan Wilson of SandpiperCi, and the Sandpiper finance team, were recognised for their Accounts Payable (AP) Automation initiatives using Epicor Kinetic deployed in the cloud, and Epicor Enterprise Content Management (ECM). The team has achieved AP Automation for more than 1,000 suppliers.
Journey to the Cloud Award – Hacel Lighting was awarded for its cloud adoption approach.
