RHC/Spacemaster GoldSite
When your clients are major retail chains spread across North America
and you have seventeen manufacturing locations across the country communication
between all parties can be difficult.
RHC/Spacemaster
sells store fixtures to some of the largest retail chains in the country.
They produce everything from small bolts to customized shelving units
and ship to stores throughout North America. The entire process is complex
and must adhere to the business rules specific to each of their many
customers.
AlphaZeta applied their AZ1TM Content Management
System and created a client extranet that solved this complex problem.
This solution differentiated RHC/Spacemaster from their competitors
and resulted in a $13 million contract.
