The growth Redmond & Associates witnessed over the years came as a double-edged sword. While it pointed to an increase in revenue and market trust, it also revealed the glaring inefficiencies of their legacy system. Basic tasks such as creating quotes, managing client details, and scheduling moves started becoming painful chores riddled with issues including duplicated efforts and data silos. As a result, the company experienced slower response times coupled with increased risk of errors in pricing.
To address these challenges, Vestra Inet developed a suite of custom software for Redmond & Associates that was fully tailored to their unique needs. This included a mix of an automated, error-free custom quotation system, a robust order tracking system, and a dynamic scheduling system - each replete with an intuitive interface for ease of use.
To begin with, our quotation making software allowed Redmond & Associates to generate highly personalized and accurate estimates tailored to the clients and industries they serve including aerospace, metal working, wood working, healthcare and hospitals, colleges and universities, and more. Our comprehensive solution also factored in minute details such as number of equipment, weight, destination, timing, special requests, and any other parameters to ensure every quote was automatically generated with zero errors and consistent pricing across the board.
Furthermore, our centralized online ordering system made it easy for the company to create new assignments, track them, assign resources, and update their status in real-time, thus ensuring complete visibility and seamless job fulfillment. The system also allowed the company to filter their existing orders by project status, location and client name, thus guaranteeing clarity and accountability at every step of the journey. Syncing with our quoting system, it simplified the entire process of job creation and order fulfilment for the company.
Next, our robust appointment and scheduling software improved logistics and dispatch by leaps and bounds. It made it easier for the company to schedule each job without causing any overlaps or errors in timing. Offering deep integrations with the company’s existing systems, each approved quote reflected directly in the calendar as a job so managers and crews could keep tabs on their schedule and ensure timely transit services.
Finally, our location assessment database kept a detailed log of all of Redmond & Associates’ previous work orders so the data could be used to model similar job requests and quotes in the future with minimal guesswork and errors. It contained crucial site-specific details such as ceiling heights, door sizes, stair access, elevator availability and dimensions, and other key parameters that the company’s transit crews could use to prepare for every move.
Vestra Inet’s custom quotation solution and associated software helped Redmond & Associates experience a tremendous boost in their overall operational efficiency. Manual errors dropped to an all-time low while client communication improved thanks to the generation of faster, accurate quotes, real-time updates, and reliable scheduling.
Scalable by nature, our solutions allowed the company to tap into new markets without overwhelming their internal resources. The result? Sustained growth for Redmond & Associates along with higher customer satisfaction.
