Epicor Software Corporation, a global provider of industry-specific enterprise software to promote business growth, today announced Dakota Supply Group has selected the Epicor Eclipse solution to power world-class customer experience. All 33 branches of Dakota Supply Group will deploy the Epicor Eclipse enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution to fit growing business demand and better service customers.

Epicor Eclipse connects various systems and customer touchpoints, and for Dakota Supply Group, understanding their customers data is priority for enhancing their customer experience. Founded in 1898, Dakota Supply Group (DSG) has been dedicated to providing all the right connections to their customers in electrical, plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration, communications, utility, automation, waterworks, on-site sewer, water and well, filtration and metering technology industries.


Enhancing efficiency and customer experience with fit-for-purpose solution
Dakota Supply Group had outgrown its existing ERP solution and sought out a solution that would increase the efficiency of processes and responsiveness. Epicor Eclipse will help allow Dakota Supply Group to optimize processes and experiences, both with customers and internal, and enable greater capacity. Dakota Supply Group will be able to look at their operations, including warehouse management, order writing and purchasing in one view.

The "Amazon Effect" has shifted customer expectations of shopping experiences. Customers want to search and discover their options with a multitude of products all in one place before seamlessly placing an order online, that is trackable up until the moment it is received. By transforming their business with Epicor Eclipse, Dakota Supply Group will be able to better meet customer expectations and continue to deliver on ever-evolving customer expectations.

"Dakota Supply Group has a goal to provide amazing customer service and we're honored they chose Epicor Eclipse to help meet that goal," said Tony Corley, senior product marketing manager at Epicor. "As a fit-for-purpose solution for electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and PVF distributors, Epicor Eclipse will enable Dakota Supply Group to optimize processes, improve efficiency, and simplify transactions while enhancing communication across the organization."

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.
