Independent Timber Merchants (ITM)

ITM required a solution that would produce company branded price cards of different shapes and sizes. It needed to be flexible enough to accept different custom made templates, be user friendly and intuitive to the end user.

The price card templates are prepared and stored independently from the price card application. The user can produce any type of the template, given that they follow the guidelines of development.

We recommended using MS Office 97 suite, especially MS Word, VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) in the system implementation.

The main reason for this choice was that most users were familiar with MS Office and it utilised existing hardware and software.

This project is a good example of reducing total cost by using this existing platform satisfying the client's exact needs.

ITM has gained three ways: by saving on purchasing of new software and hardware as well as on staff training.

The solution has been developed and deployed on time and within the budget. During the implementation of this project, we maintained close contact with the client - the end users, management and even client's customers ensuring the success of this project.

Soft Light competed with an Australian company who presented a more complex and expensive solution for a similar product.

The main reasons the contract bid was successful was by providing

• cost effective solutions
• flexible answers to all the client's needs
• fast and efficient local support.

Currently ITM is using version 4.2 of the Price Cards product
