Les Messageries Dynamiques, a Quebecor division, has chosen the sales force automation solution from CIS Group
St-Jérôme, Québec, May 11, 2006
After a long selection process, Les Messageries Dynamiques has picked CIS Group to manage and implement its delivery route computerization project. This leading distributor of newspapers, magazines and other products acquires the Companion Suite cutting-edge software package to automate its 300 routes across Québec and the Maritimes.
With Companion Suite, Les Messageries Dynamiques replaces its current manual invoicing system with a flexible point of sale invoicing system including Intermec 740 handheld computers with integrated bar code readers and portable 4-inch Intermec PW40 printers. From now on all the distributors are equipped with handheld computers. They are able to carry out data entry in the field, invoicing, account collection, as well as price, credit, sample and inventory management. For Les Messageries Dynamiques, the launching of the Companion Suite gives a boost to productivity in terms of administrative workload.
“It’s much more than simple automation of operations”, says Jacques Tessier, CEO of CIS Group. “It embodies a new work approach that eliminates time loss, errors and duplicate data entry, besides projecting a professional image of the distributors.”
“In keeping with its reputation in innovation, CIS Group took up the challenge. Its professional team and the quality of its product enabled us to take a gigantic step forward”, argues Mr. Paul Sauvé, IT Director at Les Messageries Dynamiques. “We are very satisfied with our new business partner. They rolled up their sleeves and delivered a solution that today satisfies our needs. We consider it as a testimony of accuracy and professionalism. Our customers are enchanted.”
