SportsJam take delivery of Alpha Five system "Tracker 2"

SportsJam (http://www.sportsjamkits.co.uk/) are one of the UK's leading sportswear suppliers, providing clothing and equipment to sports clubs, schools and other organisations.

SportsJam HQ in Shrewsbury

A busy business like SportsJam needs a fast and flexible system to process customer and supplier orders and they have been using a Start Software bespoke Microsoft Access system - Tracker - for the last 12 months or so.

Tracker has worked well but their growth has been such that they decided to replace Tracker with a new system which would automate many of the aspects of their business process, including:


  • automatic placing of supplier orders
  • quotation management, and
  • stock processing.
SportsJam management discussed their requirements with us and we decided to use Alpha Five v11 as the development platform with a Microsoft SQL Server database.

Alpha Five enables us to build bespoke database systems incredibly quickly with the resulting system working entirely within a web browser making it easy to deploy and accessible from any Internet-connected PC, smartphone or tablet.

    "Great to see innovative solutions like Alpha Five being embraced by businesses like SportsJam. It’s amazing how technology can streamline operations and improve customer experience. As a shorts manufacturer, I find such tools inspiring for managing inventory and fulfilling orders more efficiently.
