Armstrong International Steams Ahead with Configure One
Market Leader Selects Best-in-Class Product Configurator and E-Catalog Solutions

OAK BROOK, IL, March 14, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Configure One a leading provider of web-based product configurator and electronic catalog software, today announced that Armstrong International—a world leader in intelligent system solutions for steam, air, and hot water utility applications—selected Configure One's Concept Enterprise Product Configurator and Concept E-Catalog after a comprehensive evaluation process.

Founded in 1900, Armstrong International is a family-owned company that provides intelligent system solutions that improve utility performance, lower energy consumption, and reduce environmental emissions.

As part of a major software systems upgrade, Armstrong International took the opportunity to evaluate new product configurator solutions. "We had replaced our old ERP system, and our existing configurator software didn't work with the new system," said Kurt Armstrong, chief information officer. "In addition, there were some limitations with our existing system that we needed to address. We initially evaluated five vendors, but quickly reduced the list to three. In the end, we selected Configure One as they were the best fit to our requirements."

Configure One will enable Armstrong International to streamline its entire quote-to-order process, and dramatically reduce the time needed to produce a quotation.

According to Armstrong, Configure One's ability to integrate with CAD drawings was a key factor. "Our products are complex, so it is difficult to visualize how the product will look when you are going through the configuration process. With Configure One, the end-user will have the ability to see the product being configured in real-time."

"Armstrong International is another market leader that selected Configure One to replace an existing product configurator," said Chris DiEllo, Configure One's director of eastern region. "Our vast experience in replacing legacy configurator applications, together with our integration to leading CAD and ERP systems, makes Configure One the right choice."
