Client Briefings

In May we concluded another successful round of Client Briefings throughout New Zealand. This is the second year we have conducted these briefings and feedback suggests we should continue to invest resources into these valuable sessions.

Consequently, our thanks go to the 200+ clients we saw from Kaitaia to Invercargill and everywhere in between!

For us at APS it is another great excuse to meet our clients in their local environment and provide a high level overview of some key activities and software development for the coming year. For clients it is another opportunity to connect with the APS team, ask questions, provide ideas and ensure that we are both “on the same page” with our forward planning.

Key topics covered at this year’s briefings include:

• APS International Update – All regions growing 20%+
• 2007 Client Conference Feedback – Sessions for Partners/Directors proved very popular
• 2008 Client Conference Details – More specialised sessions for Partners/Directors planned & some high profile celebrity speakers/entertainers
• APS Product Development RoadMap
• PM 9.1 – exciting new features
• Advance Document & Email Management – another DM option
• CRM 9.1 – new wizard driven navigation and new event management
• Tax 2008 – high level changes for Prov Tax / GST alignment
• XPA – extended sheets development & “Workpapers Management” prototype
• Capacity Planning – ability to plan resourcing
• Networking – popular mid session break to chat and share ideas
