Springfield, MA - September 3, 2003 - Solutions by Computer, Inc., the North American market leader in rental business computerization, has integrated its CounterPro software with e-FleetPro - the online parts ordering and product support system Powered by SmartEquip .
Solutions users can now order parts and obtain service information over the Internet using Solutions work order and purchase order programs.
SmartEquip's online system provides a single source for manufacturer service documentation - from an intelligent and interactive electronic parts catalog to easily accessed operator manuals, troubleshooting guides, safety notices, and equipment specifications. It simplifies ordering as well - users just select the parts they need, and the system generates the order directly through the Solutions program.
"Fleet maintenance is fundamentally important to preserving a rental owner's investment in inventory," said Solutions president Jack Shea. "SmartEquip's program allows the rental owner to order parts directly from manufacturers over the web, and facilitates equipment maintenance by connecting the parts ordering and service management operations in a rental store. SmartEquip's technology is of direct importance to rental dealers because of their focus on integration with major manufacturers of equipment rental products. We anticipate that our partnership will deliver significant benefits to Solutions customers in the form of efficiency, utilization, productivity and cost savings."
Alex Schuessler, SmartEquip's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Solutions by Computer is committed to extend the value of CounterPro to its users by having a single transaction created in e-FleetPro power a "closed-loop" transaction with the parts manufacturer. SmartEquip's philosophy is to provide a straightforward, easy-to-use, up-to-date, and comprehensive conduit for pricing, service and support documentation, and accurate parts selection and ordering. We look forward to bringing value to the Solutions community with e-FleetPro."
