The Hand-held System:
DMS Office Coffee Manager has been designed to employ state-of-the-art hand held computer technology to provide a completely automated route sales and inventory control system. A recent article in the New York Times cites Frito Lay Inc. as saving over 40 million dollars during the first year that they deployed a hand held system to their 10,000 route sales employees, at an average time savings of approximately $ 4,000.00 per route. Here are a few reasons why you should look into the hand-held solution for your company.
Hand-helds Provide:
Increased customer service levels: Your customers will enjoy better service with fewer out-of-product calls and decreased staff complaints.
Increased new Account Productivity: New accounts are the life's blood of any service company. Your route sales personnel will be able to spend more time prospecting and less time with bulky paper work, for a more productive staff.
Paperless operation: Record orders, maintain truck inventory, record payments made in the field, omit manual route slips, and pass information to and from the field, all without paper.
Manage the transaction where it occurs... In the field. You can update and print invoices in the field, print delivery slips as they occur without handwritten changes, manage truck inventory and eliminate the repetitive data entry tasks . Go Mobile... Go Hand-held.
