Avaap announced today that Destination XL Group, Inc., the largest specialty retailer of men’s big and tall apparel, selected Avaap to upgrade its legacy version of Infor Lawson® to the Infor 10x version of Infor Lawson Enterprise Financial Management.

Avaap will leverage its industry experience in the retail vertical to enable integration and help Destination XL Group achieve a more cost-effective infrastructure while utilizing the Infor technology to its fullest advantage.
Destination XL Group, like other retail organizations, relies on its financial systems to support growth goals and respond to business change. Infor Lawson Enterprise Financial Management implemented by Avaap is expected to help Destination XL Group modernize its infrastructure, consolidate information across the enterprise and deliver reliable financing data to decision-makers.
“Avaap came strongly recommended, had solid references and demonstrated deep understanding of our business needs, Infor solutions and the underlying technology,” said Anne Bark, vice president of Application Development, Destination XL Group. “We like their methodology and approach, which will enable us to upgrade quickly, efficiently and securely to meet our year-end deadline and gain faster access to the latest Infor technology.”
