Medical supply and device distributor drives growth with Epicor solution
Epicor Software Corporation, a global provider of industry-specific enterprise software to promote business growth, today announced United Medical Supply Company has chosen the award-winning Epicor® Prophet 21® software as its new enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution to better source and track inventory and provide value to customers.
United Medical Supply provides medical supplies, equipment, furnishings, housekeeping, laundry, linen, and textiles solutions for the post-acute care community. The company was founded on the principles of delivering high-quality products, competitive pricing, and unmatched service that can only be expected from a local supplier.
United Medical Supply prides itself on its service and providing value to its customers. The company’s previous ERP system was not meeting their business needs, and they began searching for a new solution that could better source goods, track products, create quotes, and provide value to new and existing customers.
Driving private label growth with industry-specific software
United Medical Supply’s previous system involved many manual processes, required third party applications, and had invoicing issues. With Prophet 21 software, processes are automated and everything will be included under one solution. The Prophet 21 solution will help better track and supply the company’s private label of chemical and paper supplies. “We will now be able to better focus on vertical growth and market growth,” said Fidram. “We have our own private label, and Prophet 21 software will allow us to better track inventory, look at trends to see how product growth is occurring, and improve fill rates—resulting in more satisfied customers. We’re going to benefit much more than the average user right out of the gate and be able to see a lot of quick gains.”
“The Epicor Prophet 21 solution is a proven success for distributors of all sizes, and the software is becoming more powerful and valuable to companies that need a one-stop shop for their services,” said Tony Corley, senior product marketing manager, Epicor. “Prophet 21 software offers a combination of features and functionality that can accurately streamline processes. Pricing, inventory and even quoting becomes automated reducing time consumption.”
