Robert Bowden Selects Epicor BisTrack

AUSTIN, TX--(Marketwired - Jul 22, 2014) -  Epicor Software Corporation, a global leader in business software solutions for manufacturing, distribution, retail and services organizations, today announced that Robert Bowden Inc. has chosen the Epicor BisTrack™ business management software to run their operations. Company executives decided to switch to Epicor BisTrack to improve overall order accuracy, information flow and inventory management.

Established in 1983, Robert Bowden Inc. is a privately-held wholesale building material supply and manufacturing corporation headquartered in Marietta, Georgia. Serving construction professionals in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee, the company manufactures, assembles, sells, delivers, installs, and services a wide range of interior and exterior doors, windows, columns, moldings, siding and custom millwork.

Robert Bowden is growing significantly. The company was recently named a Top 100 Manufacturer by Window and Door Magazine, the 33^rd Fastest Growing Private Company in Atlanta by the Atlanta Business Chronicle, and one of the 2014 Georgia Fast 40 by The Association for Corporate Growth.

Robert Bowden had been using a proprietary enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to run its operations. The one-off software served the company well throughout its early years, but has recently struggled to keep up with the company's spectacular growth. After much research and numerous discussions with BisTrack users, Robert Bowden executives decided to make the switch to the proven Epicor BisTrack solution to tighten up operations.

"We are enjoying tremendous success and growth thanks to our steadfast commitment to fast service, high quality products and great value," said Greg Lucas, chief financial officer of Robert Bowden Inc. "When you are a small startup, you might be able to track your operations with spreadsheets, however when you reach a certain size it is important to have a system in place that will support, measure and report on your ability to maintain your core business values. BisTrack will give us the advanced controls and structure to make sure that we keep true to our principles."
