Case Study: Barr Limited achieves automated quoting, invoicing and delivery workflows with ChristianSteven Software SQL‑RD

SQL-RD Builds Better Business for Barr

Barr Limited’s Quarries division faced a costly, manual quoting and dispatch process that generated tens of thousands of quotes and re-quotes each year and was difficult to track or audit. While building a new Sales Order & Dispatch System on Microsoft SQL Server, Barr selected ChristianSteven Software’s SQL-RD to automate report generation and distribution and to avoid bespoke coding that would have delayed delivery.

ChristianSteven Software’s SQL-RD was integrated into the live system to automate immediate dispatch of quotations by email or fax, queue invoices for overnight delivery, personalize customer emails, and produce daily haulier reports for outstanding signed delivery notes. The solution delivered faster, more accurate core processes, a full electronic audit trail that cuts time resolving queries, ensured on-time haulier payments, reduced costs versus a custom build, and delivered significant ROI across the group.
