Company
Profile
Advantage
Systems (AS) was founded in May of
1986 by Mr. Brian D. Lynch. The Company
was formed to better distribute the
CONTRACK™
accounting and project management
software. Since it was formed, the
Company’s business-focus has
matured to include development, marketing,
distribution and support of additional
vertical market applications.
Impressed with
CONTRACK’s
on-line transaction processing capabilities,
the Company was approached by a
local Mortgage Banker in 1991, to
provide the capability to manage
their “Trust Accounting”
to comply with California law. In
meeting that requirement, the Company
saw an opportunity to expand its
markets and provide a much needed
accounting solution to the Mortgage
Banking Industry.
The development
of the AMB (Accounting for Mortgage
Bankers) software has given the
Company a broader base of clients
and minimized the Company’s
exposure to the economy of one industry.
In addition to developing superior
accounting solutions for the industries
served, Advantage Systems has sought
to provide an unparalleled level
of support. Support calls are promptly
addressed and the Company has, from
it’s inception, used products
like PC-ANYWHERE and GOTOMYPC.COM
to provide on-line support of its
clients.
The Company
is small but growing. Support personnel
have been, and are expected to remain
at the level of one per hundred
clients. There are currently four
programmers on staff with a full
time tester.
Mr. Lynch
is a California CPA (inactive) and
has an extensive background in accounting
systems, financial analysis, project
management and software sales. Mr.
Lynch’s accounting background
has been extremely useful in the
development and sales of the Company’s
products. In addition to defining
the firm’s objectives and
developing its business strategies,
Mr. Lynch also manages the Company’s
day to day operations.
