Administrators were appointed this week to voice-and-data integrator, Touchbase Australia.
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission has confirmed that external administrators were appointed to Emodite Pty Ltd (formerly Touchbase Australia) on Wednesday.
Touchbase and the administrators did not return CRN's calls for comment.
Riad Tayeh and David Solomons from chartered accountants deVriesTayeh were appointed administrators to keep the company trading "for the time being", the accountants wrote in a circular to creditors.
In the document seen by CRN, the administrator told creditors "Its first role as administrator is to take immediate control of the company's assets and undertakings".
The administrators advised suppliers not to extend credit to the business "without an order signed personally" by the administrators. Suppliers should close their accounts with the business and open a new account: "Emodite Pty Ltd (Administrators Appointed)"; they said.
"If any orders were placed with you by the company prior to our appointment and have not yet been completed, these orders should not be completed until a new order from [sic] is received confirming the goods and/or services are still required by the administrators," they wrote.
And administrators warned suppliers to keep their hands off products already supplied without first gaining their written consent or leave of the court.
Touchbase Australia, which was registered on 20 January, 2001 changed its company name to Emodite last week, ASIC said.
Touchbase managing director Magnus Maynard registered Touchbase Asia Pacific on 12 July this year.
