Case Study: Brookwells achieves faster order processing and smarter stock control with Kerridge Commercial Systems' K8

Brookwells - Customer Case Study

Brookwells, a family-run business and the largest independent Land Rover parts supplier in the South West, faced a legacy IT system that no longer met its needs—lacking functionality and a development strategy—and bespoke development was not an option. After evaluating options, Brookwells selected K8 from Kerridge Commercial Systems and, with Kerridge Commercial Systems’ guidance and support, moved from server arrival to go‑live in around three months.

Kerridge Commercial Systems implemented K8, delivering a modern GUI, sales order processing and search tools, complete parts supercession records, access to the full Land Rover database (86,000 parts) and flexible purchasing features with tailored screens. The result was fast user acceptance, improved customer service, better control of old stock, time savings and stock optimisation, maximised sales opportunities and up‑to‑the‑minute visibility of orders and profitability—achieved without any bespoke development.
