West Coast building materials suppliers select bisTrack
  business software

RICHMOND, B.C., June 18, 2004

Progressive Solutions Inc. of Richmond, BC, Canada is pleased to announce that two West Coast building materials supply companies have purchased bisTrack business software from Progressive Solutions.

Plywood Supply Inc. of Kenmore, WA, outside of Seattle, has ordered a 45-user bisTrack system, plus Great Plains accounting software that will be tied to bisTrack to handle all sales, inventory, purchasing and accounting functions in an integrated software environment. Plywood Supply sells building materials and services to custom homebuilders in the greater Seattle area.

Stockton Wholesale Lumber Company of Stockton, CA has purchased a 13-user bisTrack system, also tied to a Great Plains accounting system. Stockton specializes in quality engineered wood serving California and the Southwest states.

“We’re delighted with these two new orders,” states Geoff Douglas, Progressive Solutions’ VP Sales & Marketing. “They re-affirm that we have something new to offer building materials dealers.”

“Since we introduced bisTrack in North America just a short time ago, it has stirred up quite a bit of interest,” Geoff continues. He elaborates, “We’re being told bisTrack is a lot easier to use than what’s out there. bisTrack’s Windows-based screens are intuitive to learn and make it quick to process orders. Each person’s ‘Home’ screen gives them a status of their work and reminds them of things to be done. In short, bisTrack simplifies the tasks they do everyday.”
