Roofing Supply Group Selects DMSi’s Agility
To Maximize Profitability After Merger
Omaha, NE - After its
acquisition by the Sterling Group, a
Houston-based private equity firm, Roofing
Supply Group (RSG) plans to implement DMSi's
hosted Agility software throughout its 55
branches within the next 15 months. Cecelia
Davenport, RSG CFO explains, "We selected the
hosted environment to run Agility because we
want to concentrate our efforts in roofing
distribution, not IT infrastructure. With 450
users to migrate to Agility over the course of
15 months, the ease of rollout in the hosted
environment was the right choice for us."
Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, RSG is one of the largest wholesale distributors of roofing supplies and related materials in the United States. Through its network, RSG provides one-step distribution services from the roofing product manufacturers to roofing contractors, home builders, retailers, and other end users. With its industry specific focus, DMSi is designed to meet the unique needs of the roofing supply channel.
Prior to the merger, the companies which now make up RSG were running on three separate operating platforms and sharing data was very time consuming. For the past ten years, one company within RSG utilized the DMS+ software and found it to be reliable and accurate. “RSG looked at other solutions but our history with DMSi made them the clear cut choice. We knew DMSi’s attention to detail wouldn’t be lost in Agility and we’re excited about the conversion,” adds Davenport. “Agility’s ability to drill down into information in a moment’s notice and to provide consolidated reporting information on a timely basis was also a big plus.”
