MERCHANT SOFTWARE
GENETIQ SOFTWARE IS BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR BUILDING MATERIALS SUPPLIERS TO LET YOU QUICKLY AND EASILY ADAPT DASHBOARDS, REPORTS AND WORKFLOWS… Modernise your merchant business
When your business software is no longer keeping up, you know it is time for a change. But replacing it does not have to mean replacing the knowledge, judgement and ways of working that have made your business successful to date. The right system will strengthen what already works and give you a better platform for growth. Here are five ways to upgrade without losing what makes you different: 1. Protect knowledge, not just processes Over the years, you’ve built valuable knowledge about your customers,
suppliers and operations. That’s something you want to protect.
The right partner and system can help you capture that knowledge and put it to work in your new system, so your business isn’t dependent on spreadsheets, workarounds or what’s stored in someone’s head. 2. Look for experience you can trust A partner who understands the building materials supply industry will recognise many of the challenges you’re facing and know how to address them. Just as importantly, they should listen, understand your goals and be invested in helping you succeed. Trust your instincts. Choose a partner who makes you feel confident about the move, not overwhelmed by it.
“The right partner will help you turn years of knowledge and experience into a stronger, more consistent way of working across your business.”
3. Challenge workarounds, not expertise You’ve probably developed manual processes to compensate for system limitations. Your expertise is valuable. Your workarounds often aren’t. A new software project is an opportunity to simplify how things get done, while protecting the knowledge behind them and drawing on consultants who understand best practice across your industry. 4. Ask the people who know your business best The people using your systems every day understand where the bottlenecks are, what’s working well and what could be improved. Their input can help you separate what’s essential from what’s simply familiar. 5. Choose software that builds on your strengths Start with business software built specifically for building materials suppliers. It will already reflect many of the processes, pressures and
requirements of your industry, giving you a stronger fit from day one. Then make sure it can grow with you. The best solutions let you quickly and easily adapt dashboards, reports and workflows as your business changes. Choose the right fit now, without limiting where you can go next. Making change work for you A new system should not force you to leave behind the things your business does best. The right partner will help you turn years of knowledge and experience into a stronger, more consistent way of working across your business. GenetiQ (formerly Intact) gets under the skin of how your business works, then helps you build those strengths into a system designed for your next stage of growth.
