Case Study: Ferguson improves signage uptime and saves $300K with BrightSign and Four Winds Interactive

Ferguson saves $300,000 and improves uptime by 25% with BrightSign

Ferguson, a top-rated wholesale supplier of plumbing and other supplies, faced challenges with its legacy digital signage platform, which had unsatisfactory uptime and made deploying localized content difficult. Seeking a true enterprise-grade solution, Ferguson partnered with BrightSign and Four Winds Interactive (FWI) to update its 1,000-endpoint network, needing improved reliability, cost-effectiveness, and advanced scheduling functionality.

BrightSign players were implemented as a cost-effective hardware solution, saving over $300 per endpoint and improving network uptime by 25%. This resulted in a total savings of more than $300,000 and drastically reduced the number of downed screens. Partnering with FWI for software and managed services, Ferguson streamlined content management and gained the ability to easily expand its network into new locations and use cases.
