JK Bathrooms upgrade to Sharp-aX

JK Bathrooms has been running for seven years.  Director Paul Vallis used to work on the ‘Tools’ as a plumber and he decided to invest in the business.

His counter staff are either behind the counter, dealing with goods in and out, or delivering customer orders.

JK Bathrooms had a bespoke Stock and Ordering system and used Sage separately for the accounting.

They were looking for a new combined software package, which would reduce the hours of administrative work that Paul was doing during weekends.

They chose Sharp-aX as they were impressed with the functionality of the system.  They are looking to expand the business this year by selling tiles and can see that Sharp-aX  is ideal for their expansion.

Their premises are beautiful, spacious and well laid out with a showroom displaying the products in made up bathroom settings.  The side of the building and first floor hold stock in racking.

They have their own delivery vans but do not charge delivery as part of their service.

JK Bathrooms are currently using the Signature Capture and VAT Tax Accounting package and may look at Document scanning in the future. They are using Bin Locations for the first time and the Stock Control and Picking Lists are already assisting with efficiency.

Their next phase is to set up related items on screen at point of entry and to start using product images. JK Bathrooms use Direct Sales and Cash on Delivery occasionally, however Counter and Account Customers are their main source of income.
