TRG Industry Solutions
Wholesale Distribution
The Rand Group understands the challenges facing wholesale
distribution companies. Microsoft Business Solutions allows
distributors to focus on the business with a single-source
solution for enterprise management. Today's wholesalers are
in pursuit of customer service and organizational efficiency.
Leading distributors turn to technology solutions which can
provide the edge to not only compete, but to dominate in
an industry where profit margins are constantly being squeezed
by an increasingly competitive landscape. No matter the size
of the company, precise inventory control and accurate inventory
information must be available, any time, all the time.
Inventory control is a direct link to increased profitability. By reducing customer walkouts, additional sales are captured and contribute to customer satisfaction. With Microsoft solutions, inventory can be moved through all distribution channels, protecting margins and maximizing sell-thru. The system enables supply chain excellence, from the front office through the warehouse. Companies can gain control over customer's service levels, warehousing costs and order turnaround time. With functionality such as order processing, sales analysis, customer service, application integration, eCommerce and portals, customer relationship management, warehouse logistics, supply chain integration, and strategic business analysis, Microsoft solutions integrate these features with complete inventory management capabilities.
Among the features available with a Microsoft software solution:
- Use of radio frequency and barcoding technologies for increased productivity in high volume distribution environments
- Inventory control functions to improve inventory accuracy and labor productivity
- Reduce cost of distribution management through effective carrier selections and optimization
- Access to information for your workforce through integration with portals
Current technology makes it possible to gain a strong position as a low-cost supplier and create additional revenue in the form of supply-chain services. Portals provide visibility into product availability and delivery data, increasing the response time and the accuracy of commitments made.
