It is an interesting move since Collins' organization acquired the Sage 300 CRE and Sage 100 clients of Coast Software on April 1 and a few days later, Coast announced its move to selling D+C' Spectrum Construction Software. D+C has been busy. It named Eric Newton as SVP of sales and marketing, on September 29, and Brian Rice as CFO on August 20. Rice replaced John Ulacia, who retired after 20 years with the Strategies Group, which is selling Spectrum in Georgia, South Carolina, northern Florida, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama and Louisiana.
