The Company Information Technology Supplier to Major State Universities.
The Challenge The company was awarded contracts to supply computers, software, networking and related equipment to all departments, faculty and students at several major universities. Providing Web-based access to over 400,000 products with real-time availability and special pricing was beyond the capabilities of their existing system. The contract award required a system be up and running in a short timeframe.
The Solution Ingeniasoft's supply chain management system, FourChain™ was implemented with minor modifications. It has been integrated into multiple distributor extranet systems providing a pass-through of the real-time inventory data. The system allows them to provide specific pricing and product bundles to each university department, and acts as a single-source destination for those seeking technology products.
Business Value Ingeniasoft's FourChain solution enabled the company to get up and running quickly to respond to their contract award. The system integrated with the company's distributor sources seamlessly providing 'out-of-the-box' integration that would have cost them substantially more to develop for their existing system.
