The UK’s leading professional electrical distributor, Newey & Eyre, has launched a brand new professional software system which takes the hassle out of estimating and costing for contractors and installers.
Called Simplest, the system will allow users to create and send quotation requests and purchase orders back to any of Newey & Eyre’s national network of 175 branches. The system also includes a fully comprehensive professional estimating system.
Simplest has been designed by industry-trained estimating engineers and comprises easy to use software modules to help customers quickly locate, cost and order products from Newey & Eyre’s extensive product portfolio. Users can pick and order from a range of 36,000 stocked items with guaranteed same-day or next-day delivery.
The software is simple to use, and is suitable for companies large and small, which need to quickly order products and provide estimates for projects. The system includes four modules that can be used as a complete programme, or independently, to estimate, manage, quote and order materials against both small works and larger long term projects.
Available by special arrangement with Newey & Eyre, the software will be supplied to customers free of charge. A small monthly fee is payable for support services, which includes on-going help and assistance together with regular updates and upgrades to the entire software system.
A free 30-day trial demonstration copy of the software on CD is available on request. For further information on this unique system or to request a trial copy, contact the Newey & Eyre Estimating Support Line on 0800 052 6129.
