Leading Manufacturer, WeinigUSA, Expands Deployment of Cabinet NG Document Management Software


CNG-SAFE software now deployed corporate-wide to create central electronic repository for sales, service and support at WeinigUSA

Chicago, Manufacturing Week (Booth # 20020), March 20, 2006- Cabinet NG, Inc., the preeminent solution to the "paper cuts profit" problem in small and medium sized businesses (SMBs), today announced that WeinigUSA, a wholly owned subsidiary of leading German machine tool manufacturer Michael Weinig AG, is expanding its use of Cabinet NG's Shared Access Filing Environment (CNG-SAFE) document management software across its U.S. operations. WeinigUSA is using CNG-SAFE as its electronic 'cabinet' repository of the entire sales and service history for thousands of Weinig machine tools in use throughout the United States. CNG-SAFE allows WeinigUSA personnel to get instant access to vital customer information, making its sales and service organization more productive and responsive to customers' needs.

WeinigUSA initially became a Cabinet NG customer four years ago when the company grew dissatisfied with its existing electronic document management system it was using in customer service. The booming business in construction and related industries in the U.S. placed Weinig machine tools in high demand, and a more powerful document management solution was needed to support the increased productivity and customer service requirements. Cabinet NG introduced WeinigUSA to its document management solution that went far beyond merely digitalizing paper documents. CNG-SAFE transformed WeinigUSA's paper trail into an automated electronic document workflow platform that added significantly to its productivity and responsiveness.

Today, CNG-SAFE is also automating electronic document workflow by providing a standardized naming system and central sales quote repository. This enhances WeinigUSA's entire sales and service business processes. Dennis Hargan, WeinigUSA's IT Manager, noted, "The ability of our sales and customer service personnel to respond quickly to customers with the right information is critical to the success of our business. By organizing all customer and product information into intuitive electronic filing cabinets, containing file folders and documents, Cabinet NG is helping WeinigUSA be more responsive to its customers while saving us time and money chasing down an individual machine tool's history and other details."

CNG-SAFE also manages the specific documentation related to servicing these individual machines and gives instant access to WeinigUSA personnel who have proper authority. This results in: 1. Faster diagnostic support for phone-in customers. 2. Automated online updates of repairs and specifications on individual machines across the county for the entire field sales and service organization. 3. Remote electronic filing of service history for over twenty field technicians.

"WeinigUSA is an excellent example of how businesses are taking their initial deployment of CNG-SAFE to the next level by leveraging the benefits across an entire organization. As WeinigUSA experienced, the efficiency gained using a multi-departmental implementation of CNG-SAFE is exponential," said Andrew Bailey, President, Cabinet NG.
