Epicor ups builders’ cloud power
Epicor, a global software firm that promotes business growth, based in Austin, Texas, announced two new strategic independent software vendor (ISV) partnerships with Geotab and Buildxact.
These direct integrations with Epicor’s BisTrack platform, built specifically to help with the unique needs of building suppliers, will deliver powerful cloud capabilities, the firm said.
Geotab’s telematics platform will integrate with BisTrack to help maintain safety and compliance while also boosting productivity and efficiency. The software will help increase vehicle uptime, lower operating costs, and optimize route and dispatch management.
Buildxact delivers a cloud-based estimating and construction management platform for home builders and contractors to perform takeoffs, manage estimates, and place orders with lumber and building suppliers.
“In today’s unpredictable supply chain environment, building suppliers need ways to stand out from their competition in quality, responsiveness, availability and pricing. That means finding ways to pivot quickly – to adopt new technologies and business models, and optimize work environments and practices,” said Himanshu Palsule, Epicor president and CTO.
The company also introduced new Epicor BisTrack integration with the Epicor Enterprise Content Management (ECM) module.
This gives building suppliers the content management and intelligent data capture to digitize and automate paper-based processes – such as sales order entry and invoicing – to save time and increase efficiency, said the company.
“The Geotab and Buildxact partnerships, along with Epicor ECM integration, give Epicor BisTrack customers an end-to-end solution for even greater real-time visibility, operational insights, and process automation to help make smarter decisions for business growth,” said Palsule.
The two partnerships, the firm said, will address challenges, including cloud-based functionality to manage fleets and protect assets, streamline estimating, ordering, and job management, and automate data capture for greater efficiencies and accuracy.
Epicor Software Corporation said it equips hardworking businesses with enterprise solutions that keep the world turning.
