At the heart of DMSi's Agility software is a unique lumber inventory architecture that allows for a single item (e.g. 2X6 Redwood) to be connected to multiple branches, yard locations, lots, units/tags, widths, and lengths. Since the unique requirements of lumber are so pervasive in the business, only specific lumber software can truly do it right. Every window, transaction, logic component, and applications in the Agiity system functions seamlessly to deliver product visibility, control, and ease of use. This translates into superior customer service and sales efficiency.
