DEERFIELD, IL, (November 28, 2005) – Friedman Corporation, provider of state of the art dealer software, announced today their newest release, QMIS (Quote Management Information Systems). Designed specifically for construction-related products, QMIS offers dealers and sub-contractors the flexibility to add products to a central database for quoting; establish definitions for measurements, product categories and discounts; in return, improving order accuracy, office efficiency and lead-times.
Finding a solution that is flexible and easy to use, but yet geared specifically for the dealer and contracting industry can be difficult. “There is nothing out there that compares to QMIS,” said Michael Bates, owner of Michael’s Enterprise Glass in Farmington, NM. “Not only is QMIS the only program I’ve found that is truly designed for my residential and commercial glazing business, but there is nothing I have seen that is easier or faster to use, period.”
Warren Andrews, Door Division Manager, from South Shore Glass & Door located in S. Lake Tahoe, CA, agrees saying, “At South Shore Glass & Door we provide a quality product along with knowledgeable service. We want a program that will strengthen our ability to stay ahead of the competition. With QMIS, we have products, pricing, ordering and a whole lot more at our fingertips. This ease of use means faster response times and more complete information than our competitors can provide.”
QMIS facilitates the entire sales process. Product images and documentation can be displayed during the quote process with a simple mouse click and inventory of stocked items can be easily verified. Options can be attached to any product and all products can be organized into categories and subcategories.
“QMIS is more than just a quoting tool,” says Alan Russell, product manager for Friedman Corporation's Dealer Solutions Division. “It manages the entire sales process from quotation to final invoice, including alternate quotes, purchase orders, work orders, packing lists, inventory
tracking and final invoice, with the capability to integrate seamlessly to Intuit’s QuickBooks Pro.”
