Case Study: Tightwads Discount Building Supply boosts sales and profits with Paladin Data Corporation

Tightwads Discount Building Supply - Customer Case Study

Tightwads Discount Building Supply, a growing building supply store in Prineville, Oregon, needed to move beyond handwritten quotes and receipts as it expanded from a small, four-day-a-week operation into a full-service hardware, lumber, and building materials business. The company chose Paladin Data Corporation and its lumber- and hardware-focused retail technology to better manage inventory, pricing, and sales across a fast-growing SKU base.

Paladin Data Corporation implemented a modern retail platform with tools such as thousand board-foot conversion, Market Driven Inventory Management™, and Mobile2 for sales and delivery tracking. The results were strong: sales increased 114%, the store more than doubled in size, Tightwads now carries more than 10,000 SKUs, and it achieves a 34.5% GMROI versus an industry standard of 20%, while beating big-box pricing on 95% of its inventory.
