New Capabilities Simplify Visibility into Retail Performance and Administrative Functions
Raleigh, NC—July 25, 2007 - Intervolve, Inc., the pioneer in providing supply chain software and
services for the beverage industry that leverage web and mobile technologies, today announced reporting
and system administration enhancements to its DistributionSuite™ sales and distribution solution for
beverage wholesalers. The new capabilities expand on the robust capabilities of DistributionSuite to
further simplify visibility into performance at retail and administrative functions, helping beverage
wholesalers sell and manage more effectively.
Chris Newton, Intervolve Chairman and EVP, said, “One of our key company attributes is to make
technology simple and easy to use. This major release is filled with new features that deliver on this
promise and continues to raise the bar on what we deliver to wholesalers. With these new capabilities,
wholesalers will continue to have the best tools available to help them execute at retail.”
DistributionSuite is a set of retail execution applications that integrates transactional data from
wholesalers’ current route accounting system with non-transactional data collected on mobile devices. It
provides real-time data to help distributors plan, execute, measure, and adjust to dynamic market
conditions and gain competitive advantage.
As distributors continue to consolidate, they are faced with much more complex operations, especially
with managing product portfolios both in the warehouse and at retail. With the addition of reports like
gain/loss reports, distributors will know with a click of the mouse every account that has gained or lost
distribution in the time period they wish to measure. The new DistributionSuite release includes many
other new reports and features that combine to provide better visibility into company performance, helping
managers make better, more timely decisions. Also available in the new release is a secure download
site for all mobile software installation packages that further simplifies system activities.
Chip Mims, General Manager of Mims Distributing Company in Raleigh, NC, commented, “At Mims, we
rely on the robust reporting capabilities and ease-of-use of DistributionSuite every day. The new features
give us additional ways to see how we are performing and help us to more quickly take advantage of
improvement opportunities. Intervolve continues to impress us with its product innovations.”
