Our websites are available 24/7 and have the features our customers need to make their jobs easier. Whether it's checking on a price, placing an order for will call or next day delivery, or getting product specifications and viewing invoices, our websites are there when you need them – anytime, anywhere.
We have tailored our sites to how our customers search for products – they can search by keyword or part number, and filter by personalized catalogs or product categories. Finding exactly what they need has never been easier. Customers can also view their invoices online to see their order status and signature confirmation.
Through our mobile app, customers can search, browse and order products, anywhere their job takes them. Customers can find products they need in just a few clicks with easy navigation and product selection, and they can also get pricing and availability for next day delivery or same day will call. Once they are ready, customers can checkout quickly and easily. Customers can also access branch information, including hours and contacts, and can find the closest branch from their current location using turn-by-turn navigation.
Our eFill feature allows our customers to quickly reorder products, scan in various settings, and eliminates manual order entry. Customers can print individual labels to place on bins, or a page of labels to place in a booklet on their desk for easy access. They are able to scan in various locations, including storerooms, jobsites, service vans and more, for increased flexibility. To finalize the process, customers can easily order the scanned products to eliminate manual entry and avoid data entry errors.
Through our integration solutions, customers are able to operate more efficiently by centralizing their product data and creating a more efficient workflow.
With electronic data interchange (EDI), the transfer of data is completed from our customer’s computer system to ours by standardized message formatting, without human intervention. This eliminates the potential for order entry errors, and improves the efficiency of order processing. Our punchout functionality allows our customers to purchase from our businesses through a hosted eProcurement system or an internal procurement application. With our eLink solution, customers can request a quote for an order using their existing estimating, purchasing or accounting system by simply sending an email attachment to our eLink order entry system.
