K8 from
Kerridge Commercial Systems (http://www.kerridgecs.com/)
is the distributor software which
serves wholesalers, merchants, distributors, trade and retail businesses.
Builders, plumbers and timber merchants find particular operational benefits in
the K8 system. Here, one timber merchant provides a useful snapshot case study
about how K8 brought mobile technology to its business, improving processes and
maximising profitability.
K8 is finding great success as market-leading timber merchant software, assisting in the streamlining of the IT processes of timber merchants of varying sizes. Snows Timber is one such timber merchant to harness the power of K8 to improve a wide range of operational processes, from stock management and warehouse management to order processing and overall business enhancement.
In particular, Snows Timber felt that the company relied too heavily on manual paperwork which was leading to poor stock control, cashflow problems and inefficiency across the board. The company needed timber merchant software that would bring it into the 21st century. K8 did this by providing access to the impressive functionality of the K8 web trading platform through mobile technology in the form of hand-held PDAs. This way, all staff members of Snows Timber had full access to the improved back-office system wherever they were in the performing of their duties. Distributor software has to be fully functional as mobile technology to ensure that all operational processes in the distribution cycle are streamlined and carried out accurately and efficiently.
Accessing the K8 system on PDAs meant that the team at Snows Timber could effectively handle account enquiries, gain access to customer details, ensure accurate stock management, order processing and indeed any operation or process required wherever they were on company premises. John Maddocks, Group IT Manager, is clear about the way this timber merchant software has helped Snows Timber: “By implementing K8-Small Business Edition, we’ve thoroughly improved our business processes, enhanced customer service, and significantly reduced debtor days."
