McCormick adopts Supplier Xchange

McCormick Systems, Chandler, Ariz., maker of contractor estimating software, has incorporated Trade Service’s Supplier Xchange into its software package. Supplier Xchange is an Internet-based solution that connects contractors with their preferred suppliers to receive, in real time, customer-specific pricing that may be instantly imported into the contractor’s job estimate. The integration gives all McCormick Systems users the ability to streamline their bidding and estimating process by nearly eliminating the amount of time it can take to contact their supplier, request a quote on a list of materials, wait for the supplier to respond by fax, phone, or email, and finally enter the new information into the job estimate which may be down to the wire, needing immediate submittal.
