OpsTechnology™ Marks Its Tenth Anniversary as the Multifamily Property Management Industry's Leading Spend Management Solution

Integration, efficiency, and cost savings drive growth

CARROLLTON, Texas (November 3, 2009) OpsTechnology (www.opstechnology.com),the only on-demand solution that fully integrates with all leading property management software and accounting solutions, is celebrating its tenth anniversary at the forefront of expense management in the multifamily industry. Originating as an eProcurement solution, OpsTechnology has grown to become the industry standard for expense management in multifamily.

“When we started the company in 1999, our goal was to provide property management companies with applications to control expenses related to the management, maintenance, and operations of their properties,” said Sukhi Singh, president and co-founder of OpsTechnology, whose background includes managing a portfolio of properties in Texas. “We wanted to increase visibility, knowledge and control around the procurement, approvals budgets and invoice processing functions in order to deliver operational efficiency and cost savings. The rapid evolution of the product and the tremendous growth of our customer base are indicative of the real value that the solution delivers to the bottom line.”

“OpsTechnology has exceeded our expectations,” said Michael Manelis, senior vice president property operations, Equity Residential, which has used the solution for four years. “Not only with the adoption rate in our organization, but also in our ability to measure savings and negotiate harder with vendors based on the information we see coming out of the application. It's really been a powerful tool for us and has become a proactive spend management solution.”

Through its integrated online community, OpsTechnology has partnered with more than 900 regional and national suppliers to process millions of orders across thousands of goods and services every year.

“OpsTechnology is clearly among the best established applications for online purchasing in multifamily property management,” said Robin Soehl, vice president marketing and business development, HD Supply Facilities Maintenance. “We have seen a marked increase in compliance with our customers on the Ops system, and the payment cycle is shorter due to electronic invoicing. We look forward to working with Ops over the next 10 years as it continues to bring innovation to the multifamily industry.”
