CFO
Kayla Flores believes that dealers will not adopt the new online system unless Northern
Gas provides financial assistance to help them purchase or upgrade their computer network.
Flores estimates this one-time cost at $745,000.
Northern Gas will also have to invest $165,000
in upgrading its own computer hardware. The cost of the software and the consulting fee for installing the system will be $225,000.
The online system will enable Northern
Gas to eliminate 25 clerical positions.
Flores estimates that the benefits of the new system's lower labor costs will have saved the company $1,420,000.
