Fresh from their Gold Medal success in the World Scotch Pie Championships, Thomas Auld & Sons Ltd have carried off yet another prestigious award.
In this, the firm’s centenary year, they have just been pronounced the winners of Renfrewshire Enterprise’s Technical Excellence Award for their foresight in introducing hand held computers to their wholesale van sales division.
Considerable time and effort was spent in searching the market for a suitable solution. Once a software partner; DCS had been selected, Aulds I. T. team jointly tailored the VanTrak system to meet the needs of the company and its customers.
Previously, customers’ deliveries were accompanied by hand written delivery notes which then had to be laboriously transferred to the sales ledger and van reconciliation systems.
These notes have been replaced by crisply printed receipts and the transfer of information is automatically carried out when the handheld terminal is slotted into a holster on return to base.
Further benefits are being gained from better customer and product sales data which the system provides.
