VANCOUVER, B.C., Canada, June 11, 2008.
Progressive Solutions Inc., of Richmond,
BC, Canada announces today that the company posted record
sales for its fiscal year ending March 31st.
Len Williams, President & CEO, comments, “Despite
market slowdowns in the building materials and wood products
industries, we continue to see interest in our software products
because it satisfies two major concerns our customers have:
how to gain a competitive edge and how to maximize their return
on investment into the future.
“Our bisTrack™ software helps dealers and distributors
remain competitive in tough times, by giving them data with
which to make insightful decisions, trim costs, operate more
efficiently, and improve margins. No other software package
has the range of modern analytical and corrective capabilities
that bisTrack does,” said Williams. “And bisTrack
is best-in-class software on a platform with a tremendous
amount of head-room for future enhancement.
“Lumber Track™ continues strong growth in the
all wood products industry sectors: hardwood, softwood lumber
and panel products. With over 20% of the nation’s hardwood,
30% of softwood and 50% of OSB being processed using Lumber
Track, it is clearly the industry’s most preferred solution
in the marketplace today.”
“Progressive Solutions spends considerably more on advancing
and enhancing its software than any other software vendor
in the industry. Companies with the foresight to plan and
budget for a software upgrade during the downturn have turned
to us as the platform on which their operations will grow
and prosper when the market turns around,” he continues.
