CENTRAL ACCESS CORPORATION

Founded in 1954 by L.B. “Foots” Martin, Central Access Corporation (CAC) has transitioned from a school supply and equipment company into a software development and support company serving the majority of Mississippi’s public schools. CEO, Jim Milam, says the company now serves 134 of the 150 school districts with either one or both of its software solutions for accounting and student information. Over 320,000 students in MS are enrolled in CAC’s SAM Student Information System that keeps daily attendance, gradebook, and all student history until the student graduates.
