New Sutton Studio lets shop-floor and operations staff create tools on live production data without a development queue

ATLANTA, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Every operation has questions its software can’t answer – a bespoke quality check, an unusual way of batching jobs, a report shaped around one plant’s process. Manufacturers and distributors have long handled those gaps the same few ways: change the process to fit the software, pay for customization, wait for the vendor to build it, or keep the work in spreadsheets that live outside the system of record.

Sutton, the ERP and operations platform formerly known as Digit, is aiming squarely at that gap. Alongside a rename to Sutton (heysutton.com), the company has launched Sutton Studio, which lets an operator describe a tool they need and have it built on their live operational data inside the existing system. The company says accounts, data and functionality carry over from Digit unchanged.

Sutton’s core modules cover inventory management, manufacturing and MRP, production scheduling, purchasing, order management, warehouse and shop-floor operations, multi-location inventory, traceability, bills of materials and fulfillment, with integrations to ecommerce, accounting and business systems. Studio sits alongside that functionality rather than replacing any of it. Early builds cited by the company include production-floor dashboards, delivery boards split by fulfillment source, supplier scorecards, receiving inspection forms and yield trackers.

“I type out my problem, summarize what I’d like to see, and everything is created for me. It’s like an engineer building a custom app for you in a couple of minutes,” said Andrew Pedersen of Pac Basic, an early user.

The company frames the approach as software adapting to the operation rather than the operation adapting to the software — closing the gap between identifying a requirement and having software that supports it. “Instead, we built the layer an operator can create and edit themselves, using their business’s data and workflows within Sutton,” said Dan Koukol, co-founder and CEO, who ran a plastic injection molding company before founding the business.

For operations that move physical inventory and schedule production, the reportable questions are reliability and control: how changes to live data are governed, and what review, permissions and audit trail sit behind a tool an operator builds.

SYDNEY, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TMGM is strengthening its support for para sport in Vanuatu through a three-year partnership with the Vanuatu Paralympic Committee (VPC), supporting initiatives that expand participation and create development pathways for people with disabilities.

The partnership was recently marked at the Vanuatu National Games para-sport awards ceremony on 9 September, where Prime Minister Jotham Napat joined the sporting community in recognising the achievements of participating athletes. The occasion also provided an opportunity for TMGM to reaffirm its commitment to VPC while joining the presentation of awards to athletes.

Running from 2026 to 2028, the partnership provides annual support for VPC’s programmed initiatives, with a focus on sustained development beyond individual competitions. The collaboration comes as Vanuatu continues to build its presence in international para sport, including its recent representation in Para Powerlifting at the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games.

Across Vanuatu’s geographically dispersed communities, VPC has worked to expand access through initiatives including its Hub & Spoke programme. Recognised by the International Paralympic Committee, the model develops local coaching capacity and connects athletes across four provinces with training, classification and competition opportunities.

“Our partnership with VPC reflects our belief that meaningful progress is built over time. International competition is an important milestone, but developing para sport requires sustained access to coaching, participation and opportunities to progress. We are proud to support VPC as it continues building these pathways,” said TMGM.

The partnership reflects TMGM’s broader commitment to supporting locally relevant initiatives across Asia-Pacific.

Joint Venture Consolidates CRM, Planning, Portfolio, Tax and Reporting into One System of Record and One View of Every Client

NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Verapath and GenTrust today announced a joint venture and the general availability of VIRA, an AI-native wealth management platform that consolidates the fragmented collection of traditional wealth stack applications used by wealth advisors. By embedding AI throughout one internally consistent platform, VIRA gives firms the ability to operate more efficiently, make better decisions and deliver a superior client experience.

Advisory firms today typically run on a wealth stack of point solutions — a separate CRM, portfolio accounting system, performance reporting tool, rebalancer, tax-loss harvesting engine and data warehouse — each with its own data model, integration burden and vendor relationship. The result is duplicated data entry, reconciliation work that consumes operations staff, and a client picture assembled by hand from multiple systems.

VIRA unifies those capabilities into a single, intelligent operating system. Because the platform was designed AI-native rather than retrofitted, intelligence runs through every workflow instead of sitting beside it as an add-on: data flows through one system of record, routine operational work is automated, and advisors get a complete view of every client in one place.

“This joint venture is the next step not only for Verapath, but for the wealth management industry,” said Alec Crawford, CEO of Verapath. “Our AI-native platform is built for everyone at an RIA, not only financial advisors, and it improves the client experience as much as it transforms the advisor’s. When you see ‘Powered by Verapath,’ you know you can trust us to deliver the quality, safety, governance and regulatory compliance you need to take your business into the future.”

“We are humbled to introduce VIRA to the world: the first AI-native, all-in-one wealthtech platform built inside an advisory firm for the way advisors actually work,” said Jim Besaw, CIO of GenTrust. “GenTrust has run its own advisory business on VIRA’s predecessor for the past decade, making the platform both purpose-built and battle-tested — and putting an end to the days of stitching together a multitude of systems that don’t talk to one another. Our partnership with Verapath, the industry leader in AI governance and security, has taken VIRA to an entirely new level. Security has always been advisors’ number one priority, and with VIRA they can own and control their client data within a secure system tailored to their needs.”

VIRA is available now to RIAs and wealth management firms. To request a demo, visit virawealth.ai.
