C.A.R.E MOVES FORWARD WITH INVENTORY MATCHING SYSTEM

The IMS Committee was organized to promote the continued development and use of the Inventory Matching System that has been provided by the Merlin group. We are well past BETA testing and many C.A.R.E. member companies have enrolled in and have completed introductory training online. While improvements are still being made and functionalities are being fine tuned, stimulating participation among all C.A.R.E. is our next mission.

It should also be noted that C.A.R.E.’s IMS has been a stimulus for companies who were once C.A.R.E. members to revisit C.A.R.E. Additionally, as mentioned in earlier reports, it proved to be an excellent tool to solicit new members at ARDA.

All attendees at the New Orleans Conference were given the opportunity to attend training sessions.

Following the conference Merlin will continue to provide training sessions. Tuesdays are dedicated as an introduction to the system and Thursdays are designed for continuous review.

To schedule a training session for your organization you may contact Alain Carr at (630) 396-2878, Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 5pm CST.
