ALLENTOWN, Pa., Nov. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- MAM Software Inc. - a subsidiary of Aftersoft Group Inc. and a leading provider of business management software solutions - today announced that its Autopart management software is being hailed as the saviour of the recession by Michigan-based parts chain, Performance Automotive Inc.

Performance Automotive Inc. is a five-store automotive parts and accessories chain serving Adrian, Albion, Jackson, and Tecumseh. The company, a Parts Plus distributor, has been using MAM Software's Autopart business management solution since 2006 to control its sales, inventory and accounting.

"By utilizing Autopart's powerful reporting tools, we are able to rapidly extract the data we need, and perform solid analysis to tweak our order points and determine current market trends for our customers," Tim Stone explained. "This has allowed us to capitalize on the opportunities in the market. While the economy has soured, we've been able to make solid, calculated decisions that have increased our market share while increasing our profit margin and posting consistent month over month gains."

"Due to the ability to rapidly analyze a product offering and determine with great accuracy the appropriate order points and margins possible from the lines, we have been able to make solid decisions to switch suppliers in key lines, keep the lines that make sense, and build solid inventories. We've created a situation that benefits us, our suppliers, and our customers," he added.

"The net result has been an increased inventory in line with sales expansion, increased inventory turns, increased profit margins, and increased sales volumes. According to our sales data, the recession never happened," Tim Stone concluded.
