Polymorph Limited won the Best SME Software Solution Award 2013 at
the European IT & Software Excellence Awards in London on 13th March
2013.
Our award submission focused on our work on Tactical Solutions DRIVE
project, using bespoke software tablet technology. Tactical Solutions
approached Polymorph to help radically transform its primarily paper-based
field sales processes, mainly handled in-store, with the use of cutting edge
technology; in order to revamp the way its staff in the field reported
information and solved problems for the brands Tactical Solutions
represents.
The solution was the DRIVE tablet software, enabling real-time updates as soon as they enter a store. In addition, it also shows how a brand should be displayed within the context of what had been agreed with that store, so that the sales manager can address any issues directly with the supermarket manager. All of this information is then sent directly to Tactical Solutions headquarters for analysis.
The DRIVE tablet software was initially rolled out to over 120 field sales users, who carry out over 2,700 in-store visits every week. The easy-to-use software has significantly helped to increase reporting and reduce manual inputting, allowing Tactical Solutions to focus on its core business.
"Winning this award is a significant step for Polymorph to be acknowledged as a first class IT services company and for our work with bespoke software and tablet and mobile solutions. We have built on our success of the DRIVE project by rolling out similar projects for businesses and we hope to add many more projects to our portfolio, as well as awards in the future" Stephen Harris, Managing Director, Polymorph.
The European IT & Software Excellence Awards are the only
pan-European awards which recognise the crucial role that ISVs, Solution
Providers and Systems Integrators play in the delivery of real world solutions,
and attracted entries from 25 countries. Entries were submitted by the ISV or
solution provider themselves describing the solution provided and each had to
be supported by an endorsement by the client. 64 companies from 15 countries
made the finals. The winners were selected by an independent panel of
consultants and editors.
