W. Bradley Electric
W Bradley Electric saw an increase in overall productivity with the introduction of Kojo for materials management.
The Story
Like most electrical contractors, W Bradley Electric didn’t have a single system to handle materials. Field requests for materials, POs, warehouse logs, delivery receipts, invoices, and the processes to handle them were all siloed. There was no easy way to facilitate communication and definitely no transparency into the status of materials. Field costs were climbing and their five purchasing agents spent 20% of their day manually entering purchase orders. Materials management was a clear area for improvement for their business.
The Solution
Kojo was the perfect solution for W Bradley Electric. Field teams could use the Kojo mobile app to order materials just like they order anything else online. Foremen could submit requisitions to purchasing agents digitally from the field. Purchasing agents could convert the digital requisition into POs and send them electronically to vendors with just a few clicks. Requisitions, RFQs, POs, invoices, and delivery receipts could now be tracked digitally and in real-time.
For WBE, this meant:
- Easily tracked purchase requests
- Payment their bills faster than ever since all ordering information lives within Kojo
- Record of all dollars spent on equipment and materials
- Accountability and control for Field teams to place orders
