DPSciences Extends Deployment of Vertical Solutions' Technology -- New modules and integration with back-office software streamline sales workflow process and dramatically enhance productivity
 


Cincinnati, OH - October 22, 2009 - Vertical Solutions, Inc. (VSI), an award-winning developer of Contact Center and Service Management Solutions, announces that DPSciences (DPS), a Cincinnati, OH-based value-added reseller, has implemented new modules of PowerHelp CRM Relevant Products/Services software to manage and track its entire sales process. In addition, the company has integrated its PowerHelp platform with its back-office software to eliminate manual re-keying of data Relevant Products/Services and to streamline its sales workflow, invoicing, and maintenance management processes. DPS estimates that deploying the new modules, combined with the back-office software integration Relevant Products/Services, will result in productivity gains of approximately 25 percent.

DPS specializes in building, deploying, and supporting network Relevant Products/Services and communications Relevant Products/Services solutions from major manufacturers. It deployed PowerHelp CRM in 2003 to streamline its warranty processes, which enabled DPS to triple its manufacturer maintenance revenues. The company has now installed the Time Keeping and Expense Reporting modules of PowerHelp. When DPS decided to revamp its back-office processes, it turned to PowerHelp from Vertical Solutions.

"We made the decision that PowerHelp is the application that drives our business," says Tim Shelton, CFO, DPS. "When we chose a back-office software solution, one of our major criteria was how well its underlying architecture was suited to PowerHelp."

DPS sales reps now manage their entire sales funnel using PowerHelp, and information they enter automatically populates sales orders in its back-office software for fulfillment and invoicing. The tight integration between PowerHelp and the back-office software enables DPS to eliminate manual re-keying of sales orders, invoices, and serial numbers used to manage maintenance contracts. The two systems are synchronized, which provides sales reps with accurate dashboards detailing sales for month and year to date, profit, and other pertinent information.

The systems also integrate with those at the third-party finance company that purchases sales invoices from DPS's manufacturer partners, a process known as a "floor plan" in the computer reseller market. This integration further streamlines the sales and revenue receipt workflow for DPS, eliminating manual re-keying and enabling invoicing and payments via electronic data interchange (EDI).

"Everything is in synch; everything is accurate; everything is streamlined," says Shelton, who anticipates that productivity gains will exceed 25 percent. (continued...)
