To implement his far reaching vision of Fotosource's future, John Crewson, its President and COO needed a partner to help carry out the redesign of their business process. Amisource worked with him in the planning process to :

• Review and map out the existing business process
  
• Re-engineer the entire work flow and business process
  
• Prepare the documentation and plan to convert the company from a traditional paper based system to a completely automated ecommerce/EDI/internet enabled system.

Fotosource later implemented the plan and as a result, has been able to achieve year on year double digit growth with only marginal cost increases! Their fotosomart© application forms the backbone of their system eliminating human intervention, automating inventory, purchasing and payment systems. The redesign was carried out at savings as much as 80% compared to conventional costs.
