Helping businesses make better credit decisions for generations.
NACM South Atlantic is a member-owned organization serving the commercial credit community with practical information, professional resources, and services designed to help businesses extend credit with greater confidence.
Our work brings together something increasingly valuable in modern business: current credit information, experienced people, useful technology, and a community of professionals willing to share knowledge and experience.
A credit organization built around its members.
NACM South Atlantic is part of the National Association of Credit Management network, but our relationship with the businesses we serve is local and personal.
We work every day with credit managers, controllers, accounts receivable professionals, business owners, contractors, suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, and service companies that sell to other businesses on credit.
Unlike an organization built around a single product, NACM brings together credit information, professional services, education, networking, and decades of institutional knowledge. That combination allows us to help businesses throughout the credit lifecycle—from evaluating a new customer to monitoring an existing account, protecting lien rights, and collecting an account when payment problems arise.
1926
Nearly a century of commitment to the commercial credit profession.
The tools have changed. The values have not.
Our organizational roots can be traced to 1926. The credit profession looked very different then, but the principles that brought credit professionals together remain relevant today.
NACM was built around the exchange of legitimate credit information, ethical business practices, professional education, cooperation among members, and the responsible management and collection of commercial accounts.
Today we use electronic data, online credit reports, automated monitoring, digital document processing, electronic recording, and other modern technology. But technology serves the mission—it does not replace it.
Supporting the entire commercial credit process.
Credit management involves much more than pulling a credit report. Our services are designed around the real work performed by credit departments every day.
Commercial Credit Reporting
Evaluate customers and prospects using commercial credit information, trade payment experience, public records, and reports from established credit information providers.
Industry Credit Groups
Connect with professionals serving the same industries, exchange permissible credit information, discuss trends, and learn from the experience of your peers.
Florida Notice to Owner
Help protect construction payment rights with Notice to Owner preparation, research, processing, and related construction notice services.
RecordingFast™
Electronically submit documents such as Claims of Lien, Satisfactions of Claim of Lien, and Notices of Commencement for recording with the appropriate public office.
Commercial Collections
When an account moves beyond normal collection efforts, professional commercial collection services can help pursue payment while allowing your staff to focus on current accounts.
Credit Management Tools
Account monitoring, portfolio analysis, automated credit references, electronic data contribution, and other tools help credit departments work more efficiently.
Credit information becomes more valuable when there is a community behind it.
NACM has always been built around the idea that businesses make better decisions when credit professionals have access to useful information and can learn from one another.
Working for the credit community
Our organization exists to provide useful services and resources to its members and customers—not simply to sell another database.
Information from real business relationships
Member-contributed accounts receivable information helps build the NACM National Trade Credit Report and provides insight into how businesses are actually paying suppliers.
People who understand commercial credit
Our team works with credit reporting, construction notices, public records, collections, data contribution, and credit groups every day.
Technology designed to save work
We use automation and electronic services where they improve speed and efficiency while retaining the professional support businesses need when a situation is not routine.
Part of the National Association of Credit Management.
Membership with NACM South Atlantic connects credit professionals with resources extending well beyond our local office.
NACM National provides extensive professional education, certification programs, publications, industry resources, networking opportunities, and the annual Credit Congress & Expo—bringing together credit professionals from across the country.
That means members can combine the accessibility and service of a local NACM organization with the educational and professional resources of a national network.
Service still matters.
Good credit management combines information, technology, experience, and judgment. Our goal is to make each of those things easier for the businesses we serve.
Accurate
We believe business information should be handled carefully, responsibly, and with attention to detail.
Practical
Our services should solve real problems for real credit departments—not create additional work.
Responsive
Technology is useful, but sometimes you need a knowledgeable person who can help.
Ethical
Confidentiality, appropriate information exchange, and fair business practices remain fundamental to the credit profession.
Put better credit resources behind your business.
Whether you manage a large credit department or simply need help with a difficult credit, construction, or collection issue, our team is here to help.
