Cost: Complimentary
Presenter: Tom Atkins, Senior Engineer — Distribution
In this webinar, we'll review what experienced distributors say they need specifically for the electrical, HVAC, plumbing and industrial wholesale distribution market.
Your wholesale distribution company will be concerned with software functionality that focuses on maintaining optimal inventory levels, facilitating quick movement of goods, providing strong "front office" functionality for customer service personnel, and delivery flexible reporting for management. During your ERP selection process, you'll want to look beyond simple features and expand into validating if the distribution software functionality offers advanced features such as fully-integrated CRM functionality, warehouse management, strong financial management, and kitting and assembly capabilities for light manufacturing.
Selecting the right ERP system with the appropriate distribution software functionality will help you improve sales performance and organizational efficiencies while reducing costs and improving order and line item fill rates. It will help distribution companies succeed in any business environment.
