PUMP-FLO Solutions Reveals New Product at Power-Gen 2010
LACEY, Washington- December 9, 2010-PUMP-FLO™ Solutions
(An Engineered Software Business), announced it will be revealing
the next generation of its PUMP-FLO product line while exhibiting
at the 2010 Power-Gen
International Expo. Under the corporate owner Engineered
Software, the PUMP-FLO Solutions brand will give a sneak peak at
its new PUMP-FLO Insight product.
PUMP-FLO Insight is a completely integrated solution that offers
not only PUMP-FLO's industry standard pump selection tool, but also
fully customizable configuration, pricing, and quoting
capabilities. An interactive demo of the new configuration software
will be shown and trial subscriptions of the newly launched PUMP-FLO Premium service
will also be offered.
The annual exhibition begins Tuesday, December
14th and runs until Thursday, December
16th. Engineered Software, Inc. will be exhibiting their
entire product line including the latest releases of PIPE-FLO
Professional 2009 and PUMP-FLO Premium at Booth
2162.
"Any time you develop a new product, like we did with PUMP-FLO
Premium, you invariably create another 10 viable product
possibilities," said Carolyn Popp, President and Chief Technical
Officer for Engineered Software, Inc. "Our customers wanted a full
process solution that could utilize the powerful selection tool
PUMP-FLO provides. Creating a fully integrated configuration
product was the next logical step for us. Our customers have come
to rely on our pump selection software as a key component to
running their businesses. Now, with the Insight product, pump
manufacturers can have a complete solution from the time their
customer begins pump selection until the product is shipped from
the manufacturing floor. "
PUMP-FLO Insight will provide a tool that pump sellers, and
distributors can use from the preliminary stages of pump selection
to the quote, sale and finally the support and maintenance
tracking. Insight is a web-based product configurator that
dramatically reduces the time it takes to go from a customer's
initial request for a quote to when the product is actually
shipped. By streamlining and automating much of the
pre-manufacturing process, Insight helps users
reduce their order-shipping cycle times.
PUMP-FLO Premium is a subscription-based service meeting the
needs of pump users, specifying engineers, pump resellers, and
manufacturers for sizing and selection, showing dynamic pump curves
and aiding purchasers and suppliers in the quotation process. Over
80 pump manufacturers support the PUMP-FLO Premium program by
making their pump performance catalogs available in electronic
format. The program searches from over 135,000 digitized pump
curves, making PUMP-FLO the largest pump performance database in
the world.
