      1.    Sample Justification from electronic ordering benefits
Through easier, more efficient and accurate ordering using eTurns, it's proven that dealers yield higher average purchase order values from their customers.  You'll be able to view your end-using customer's inventory and replenishment needs for all suppliers daily in real-time. You will provide higher service levels and increased revenue.  Salespeople will be more efficient and knowledgeable about each customer's usage and processes.  Assume an end-user currently has an average purchase order of $500, and generates 2 purchase orders per week.  Through automatic electronic ordering, that end-user jumps to an average of $650 per purchase order, or alternatively, generates 4 purchase orders per week with an average PO value of $325.  You are essentially providing a virtual employee at each of your customer sites.

The eTurns solution will make your parts managers, order takers, and salespeople much more efficient, eliminating manual effort. Order-taking is now automatic from your customers. Your people can view at any time, in real time, the current inventory levels and reorder amounts of each customer. With each customer you can automatically receive orders daily, at designated times, or at any time. Eliminating faxed-in or called-in orders will dramatically improve your staff's productivity. Salespeople can spend more time in the field working with clients and generating sales. You can keep track of inventory without going to the site for a physical count. You will literally be able to grow your business without needing to add an employee.
