Case Study: KIE Supply streamlines operations and prepares for growth with Advantive Inform ERP

Kie supply uses erp technology to prepare for future growth

KIE Supply, a distributor of irrigation, plumbing, electrical, and lighting supplies, faced challenges with its unreliable, home-grown ERP system that was dependent on a single internal programmer. To prepare for future growth and ensure operational stability, they sought a new, intuitive technology partner. Based on recommendations, they selected the Inform ERP software from vendor Advantive.

Advantive implemented its Inform ERP system, which provided KIE Supply with user-friendly, industry-specific tools that enabled cross-training and streamlined paperless workflows. The results were significant, including a smooth transition, reclaimed office space from eliminated file cabinets, and major time savings through automation. Specifically, a purchasing task that once took over four hours was reduced to an automated process. KIE Supply also gained the dependable support and mobile technology needed to improve service and performance across the company.
