Solution Will Help Manufacturer Increase Sales, Improve
Customer Satisfaction and Streamline Operations
MILWAUKEE — ARI Network Services
(OTCBB:ARIS), a leading provider of website, software, and data
solutions that help dealers, distributors, and manufacturers Sell More
Stuff!(TM), announced today that a leading manufacturer in the
powersports industry has selected ARI to build a web-based dealer and
distributor portal.
“ARI’s solution will allow this manufacturer of high performance
aftermarket parts to more effectively manage its distribution channel
while improving customer satisfaction and increasing sales,” said Roy
W. Olivier, President and Chief Executive Officer of ARI.
The manufacturer was seeking a web-based solution to facilitate dealer
and distributor order management worldwide. ARI will provide the
manufacturer, its dealers, and distributors with self-service order
entry, status reports and message boards. The solution will be
integrated with their ERP so users will have access to real-time
product availability. Prior to choosing ARI, the manufacturer depended
on multiple on-premise solutions that would not scale to meet its
growth objectives.
“ARI has proven industry knowledge, breadth of experience and expertise
in deploying integrated eCommerce and order fulfillment systems. This
solution will scale to meet the manufacturer’s future needs and allow
it to efficiently conduct business globally,” added Olivier.
