Dealers
and distributors “hungering” for bisTrack’s
“quantum leap”
Steve Littlefield, Vice President of Progressive Solutions,
is enthusiastic about the contribution Randy will make to
the company’s goal of being the dominant supplier of
business software and services to the wood products and building
materials supply chain. “I have worked with Randy for
over 20 years, and know him to be capable, sincere and highly
effective,” says Steve.
“Randy has already helped transform one software company
from a small regional player to a national concern,”
Steve continues. “He knows the building materials supply
business inside and out, and has indepth understanding of
the needs of small independent dealers as well as large scale
wholesale/distribution businesses – and everything in
between. There’s no better person to head Progressive
Solutions’ growth initiatives in the LBM industry.”
“I see a huge opportunity for Progressive Solutions,”
Randy Faris responds when asked his reasons for joining the
company. “I think dealers and distributors are hungering
for a new business software system that represents a significant
leap forward in technology and functionality,” Randy
continues. “bisTrack is a quantum leap forward, endorsed
by known and trusted individuals like Steve and myself, and
backed by a company that really cares about the businesses
we help. It’s a perfect storm about to descend on the
industry.”
A “perfect storm”
will transform LBM software landscape
Len Williams, President and CEO of Progressive
Solutions, is confident of the inroads to be made by the new
team focused on the bisTrack product. “Steve Littlefield
brings with him from ODS Software a skilled team of developers
and support personnel with tremendous industry experience
to augment Progressive Solutions’ existing team of professionals
supporting our growing North American customer base,”
Len Williams comments.
“We’re gaining traction as we complete more and
more successful bisTrack implementations, and we’re
building momentum with our technology partners,” say
Len Williams. “Add to that Randy’s “prefect
storm” metaphor of an industry ready for change. We’re
going to transform the software landscape in the LBM industry,
modernize the technology being used in the supply chain, and
bring collaboration back into its business partnerships.”
