Suffolk Designer Lighting Selected DDI System Showroom Software to Manage its Retail and To-The-Trade Lighting Showroom

Sandy Hook, CT (February, 2005) - DDI System, LLC, the leading provider of software solutions that power the business needs of mid-size and smaller hard-goods distributors, today announced that a distributor of high-quality, has selected its Distribution Management Software to improve profit margins, streamline operations and manage inventory levels.

Suffolk Designer Lighting had outgrown its paper-based / QuickBooks system, and needed a showroom management system to streamline and integrate front and back office operations. Employing new special order management, inventory management and workflow tools, the system is improving service levels and workflow communications, while enhancing the showroom experience for clients.

Client quotations are generated on the system and complex orders tracked on the sales floor, a new level of business efficiency that will allow sales personnel to manage client accounts directly, eliminate back office paper processing and shorten sales cycles. Special order products are received and immediately generate on-screen task messages for showroom floor personnel, keeping them up-to-date on client projects, without time delays or paper reports.

Suffolk Designer Lighting joins Kraft Hardware, Valley Lighting, Creative Bath, RIM Supply, and dozens of other Lighting, Kitchen and Decorative Bath showrooms using the DDI System for a complete, end-to-end business management solution.
