Client Need

Palm Australasia required a company to manage, warehouse and distribute their merchandising materials.

The Solution

BCP developed an online database for both Palm and BCP staff to manage stock control and shipment of merchandising materials, including everything from product brochures to large, in-store display units. Retail account managers can place orders wherever they are from their Palm Handhelds. The materials are shipped from BCP’s warehouse to anywhere in Australia. The system also accurately provides current stock levels in real time.

BCP offers a sophisticated warehouse system and expertise in the handling, packing and shipping of goods. Excellent relationships with major courier companies allow BCP to offer extremely reasonable shipping costs. BCP’s experience puts them in a unique position to be able to advise on the best and most cost effective shipping methods.

Also managed under this system are all the materials for Palm’s media releases, trade shows and product launches. This includes the compilation of kits and organisation of shipment of items such as large screens and banners to venues around Australia. The kits may be as simple as a few brochures in a folder or as complicated as large bags holding over 20 items. For any one event, thousands of kits may be prepared, with varying contents. BCP liaise with Palm staff and suppliers to ensure that kits are packed to client specification, and all items arrive on time.

Conclusion

What Palm values about BCP is the attention to detail and the ability to work within tight deadlines and still get the job done. This has lead to a 6 year relationship with Palm Australasia.
