Case Study: Conklin Metal Industries boosts rebate visibility and efficiency with Enable

Conklin Metal Industries saves 12 hours a month and claims 95% of rebates owed with Enable

Conklin Metal Industries, a long-standing distributor in the HVAC sheet metal industry, faced significant challenges in managing its complex vendor rebate programs. Their manual, spreadsheet-based processes led to missed earnings, a lack of visibility into rebate targets, and inefficient allocation of rebates across their multiple branches. These disorganized financial processes created a major blind spot for the company and required a heavy lift from their accounting team.

By implementing Enable's rebate management platform, Conklin gained the tools needed to automate calculations and accruals, track progress toward targets, and uncover missed opportunities. The solution from Enable provided critical visibility, saving the accounting team 10-12 hours per month and allowing for more strategic purchasing and vendor negotiations. This resulted in Conklin confidently claiming an estimated 95% of rebates owed, which amounted to approximately $6 million in rebate profit, fundamentally improving their vendor relationships and financial processes.
