Case Study: Burnt Oak achieves better stock control and cash flow with Kerridge Commercial Systems (K8)

Burnt Oak - Customer Case Study

Burnt Oak Builders Merchants, a family-run business in North London with a main yard in Burnt Oak and two Harrow warehouses, sold several thousand product lines but relied on manual systems that caused poor stock control, inconsistent pricing, errors and disputes, limited management information and slow debtor settlements. The company was introduced to K8-SBE from Kerridge Commercial Systems and went live with K8 in October 2008 to address these issues.

Kerridge Commercial Systems implemented K8 to provide integrated trading and accounts, real-time pricing and stock information, and streamlined processes. As a result Burnt Oak achieved faster sales processing, improved customer service, better stock control with less unnecessary inventory, quicker pricing and discount decisions, improved cash flow through integrated accounts, easier inter-branch trading and stronger oversight of sales, profitability and debt.
