Maintenance management technical wholesalers
From sales opportunity to the management of the service organisation, Centix supports the entire process. For example, Centix is used to manage modifications and customer requirements during the sales process. This can include assembly, inspection, certification, and specific customer requirements such as registering machines and tools in a customer system. If the product needs to be installed, a technician can be dispatched using Centix Work Order. After delivery has taken place, Centix can generate a service sales opportunity.
In general, it is common that margins are under pressure at technical wholesalers. The ordering online era also has its downsides in some respects. Through an excellent service organisation and additional services, the relationship with the customer can lead to a partnership in which the sales margin on new products becomes less important. Recurring business and service can your increase revenue and margin. By registering the customer’s delivered product with a QR code, you can automatically send the customer a message for maintenance, inspection or calibration. By cleverly linking service forms and consumables, etc. to a QR code, you stay close to the customer and you have recurring business!
Tip from Centix: have you ever thought about leasing, full service or rental? Centix is happy to help you on your way with appropriate automation.
Using Centix makes technical wholesalers successful!
Reporting faults and ordering consumables can be made easier for customers by placing a QR code and creating service forms or a well-designed product page. These types of flexible forms and details can be fully fine-tuned for your environment using widgets.
For managing field service technicians, Centix provides a planning board, work orders, and a powerful app: Centix Work Order. For the workshop, there are options covering the entire process, from registering maintenance and faults, receiving equipment, and managing follow-up processes such as purchasing and receiving parts, through to invoicing the customer. Centix offers complete solutions that can also be easily integrated with, for example, accounting software.
Of course, all this is transparent to all stakeholders in a portal where, for example, the customer can effortlessly request manuals, instruction videos and certificates and your technicians can carry out inspections and maintenance.
Easily manage your sales and service processes
In the sales and service process, registration, management, maintenance, information and service are important aspects to be able to work safely and to deliver maximum quality to your customers. The Centix Online Basis, sales– and workflowmanagement modules allow you to easily organise the entire process from orders, workshop to service execution.
Easily get a complete overview of what is where, with whom and what the condition of the tools or equipment is.
Easily create a quote request and convert it into orders. After the order, you create the pick list for the warehouse.
No more paper pick lists, but digital pick lists. Complete overview of the stock and the possibility to inspect equipment immediately upon return.
With Centix Work Order, work orders can be managed, materials and hours can be recorded, navigation to the next customer is supported, and inspections can be carried out.
The digital work order is leading for the service notification, planning and execution by the technician. For recording hours, material or even conversations with the customer.
Increase your productivity through real-time insight into the dispatch planning and project planning linked to the inspectors in the field.
Hour registration
The apps think along with your inspector to quickly and easily register direct and indirect hours based on start/stop times.
Parts and inventory management
Register the parts per object and manage the stock in your warehouses and the vans of your service technicians.
Tired of emailing lists and documents to customers? Give them access to their own part of your environment and don’t have to worry about it anymore.
Order ready and equipment returned? Invoice the orders easily by linking with your own accounting software. We have standard plug-ins available.
Using the QR code stickers on the object, your customers can easily submit a service report. A work order “to be scheduled” is automatically created.
