PolyDyne Press Conference – SupplyWin™ Enterprise Allows Suppliers and Distributors To Communicate With All Trading Partners
Austin, TX – August 26, 1998 – The power of a comprehensive ultimate quotation processing system for electronics distributors and manufactures is now available with PolyDyne Development Corporation’s introduction of SupplyWin™ Enterprise – a software solution facilitating quote retrieval and response in email, EDI, Internet, flat file and softcopy formats throughout the industry.
Historically, SupplyWin™ – a companion product of QuoteWin® quote management software for contract manufacturers – has facilitated transmission of quote data between suppliers operating SupplyWin and contract manufacturers operating QuoteWin. SupplyWin Enterprise opens up communication and data transmission in a supplier’s organization – offering a complete solution to receive quotes in virtually any format (email, Internet, EDI, flat file, softcopy), process them according to a comprehensive pricing database, and then respond to them in the format preferred by the customer. SupplyWin Enterprise opens up the possibility for suppliers to use this powerful quoting tool and improve their business processes with all their trading partners.
“Currently there is no other commercially available product that is addressing the quoting needs of suppliers and manufacturers in the contract manufacturing industry,” said David Tabb, president of PolyDyne Development Corp. “We recognized suppliers’ need to manage their data and quoting processes and SupplyWin Enterprise is our answer to that need.”
Along with comprehensive connectivity capabilities, SupplyWin Enterprise also features:
• Immediate data mapping – allowing suppliers to receive requests for quotes generated in QuoteWin® format,
as well as softcopy data, data received via Internet or data received through email.
• Immediate export/import functionality – allowing suppliers to export pricing data to an MRP, ERP or legacy
pricing system, and re-import it back into their SupplyWin data base.
• Full Email/Fax Return – allowing suppliers to return priced requests for quotes in the same softcopy format
they were received.
• Tiered and Customer Specific Price Matrices – giving suppliers the ability to maintain separate customer-specific
pricing tables and detailed pricing structures.
SupplyWin contains a relational database for organizing and preparing bids and also functions as a quote management system by recording a history of previous quotes. Additionally, SupplyWin has the capability to generate comprehensive, analytical reports.
