BMS systems are “full service” where one price includes all equipment, installation, training, conversion of information and hand holding along the way.  We are your experts in the computer system so you are free to work on your business.  BMS was designed to give you exception reporting so you are not subject to “information poisoning”, getting more information from your system that you can realistically process.  It gives you reports that laser focus on what you need to see, yet the full detail is available if you want it.  BMS systems can be “paperless” providing digital images of documents rather than shuffling copies of invoices, statements, reports, etc.  The BMS provides complete inventory management so you have more of what you need and less dead stock.  The BMS will pay for itself the first month by plugging the leaks where you lose profit that you didn’t even know about.

 

 

Hardware stores- BMS was designed to meet the idiosynchracies of the Retail Hardware Stores.  Particularly high item count, high item number low price transactions requiring on account sales as well as cash and carry transactions.  The system is designed around exception reporting rather than detail reporting.  This provides the information that the store manager needs to focus on rather than providing mass amounts of data for them to have to wade through.  Some examples are the suggested ordering module that will suggest and build an order for replenishing the stock each week.  The manager simply reviews the suggested order to complete the process.  BMS interfaces electronically with all the major hardware distributors for merchandise ordering, pricing and new item information loading.  Bar code scanning and label printing help make the check out process as quick and painless as possible.  Signature capturing means no expensive special forms to buy, print and sort; just print the customer a copy and their transaction shows up with their statement including their signature!
