The solution also executes critical tasks such as request initiation, purchase order placement, bid analysis, invoice approval and final payment. The primary objective of procurement solutions is to manage and ease all interactions between the stakeholders, such as originator, buyer, category manager, approver, vendor and receiver, at every transactional step. The ideal solution enables organizations to control budgets, cut costs and enhance transparency in the approvals and spending process. “Monroe and Walker traditionally have been very aggressive in reaching out to vehicle owners on behalf of our trade partners and we’re continuing this tradition through Expert Plus.Procurement software solutions vary in terms of functionality, pricing and core technology. “Our members tell us that the consumer promotions really help attract new customers and increase awareness of the importance of ride control and exhaust services,” said Sheryl Bomia, North American Aftermarket programs manager for Tenneco Automotive.
The Monroe brand, for example, is offering the “Safe All Around,” ride control promotion this spring, which offers consumers up to $80 service comeback certificates for the purchase of qualifying Sensa-Trac or Monroe Reflex products. In addition, shop owners, technicians and other Expert Plus members receive exclusive point-of-sale kits and other materials supporting Monroe and Walker programs. Products supported under the program include Monroe shocks and struts, Walker exhaust systems and components, Rancho suspensions and shocks, DynoMax performance exhaust products and DNX performance parts.Īmong the program elements for 2005 are an innovative Monroe “shock absorber” counter stool, metal shop sign, posters, wall charts and appointment calendar. The 2005 program, which is expected to be utilized at more than 20,000 service locations, features several new member benefits, including an enhanced rewards package with higher redemption point values for qualifying sales of Tenneco Automotive products.
Now in its eighth year, Expert Plus provides member shops with exclusive marketing and merchandising tools and national promotions designed to drive sales within the ride control and exhaust categories.
