How We can help you

B&D’s mission is the same as it was when they opened for business in 1984 – to provide customers with service that is of real value.    Service that continually improves customers’ facilities, increases equipment dependability and efficiency. B&D Controlled Air works to create real savings and more efficient HVAC systems and building controls.

Business has rapidly increased since 1984.  The company saw that in order to keep up with the demand, and continue to deliver the kind of quality and experience their customers expect, they would have to harness technology to assist.

So B&D made the decision to work with Salesforce and BlackIron Group.  BlackIron Group initially helped B&D deploy Sales Cloud and Quoting.  B&D’s customers expect a quick turnaround, a reliable quotation and the ability to work with their rep until the quote is acceptable.  BlackIron Group implemented Salesforce Sales Cloud and Opportunity Management.   These tools gave the internal team the ability to quickly create, modify and manage quotes for their customers.

We also integrated this data with QuickBooks.  Allowing data to easily flow from Salesforce to QuickBooks reduced data entry, and resulting data entry mistakes.  This integration has helped streamline the sales process and increased efficiencies with the team, giving them more time to work with their customers.

Using Field Service Lightning, B&D can quickly respond to critical customer issues in the field with the right resources, quickly.

Next, they re-imagined their Customer Support process, enabling Salesforce’s revolutionary Field Service Lightning app (FSL).   This allowed a relatively small Service team people to handle up to 100 cases a day, troubleshooting issues, assigning Field Techs to the right service appointment, and, by using the Salesforce Workflow Engine, communicating an “I’m on my way” message to the next service appointment in the queue, whenever a service appointment is completed  on the Mobile App.

Solving Customer problems quickly is key to B&D’s mission, and FSL has certainly helps to manage the Work Order Assignment and tracking process. And, by using the data that results from the FSL function, B&D can analyze service appointments for trends and exceptions.  This allows them to anticipate customer needs and continually exceed their customers’ expectations.

In the wine business, understanding real time sales and inventory information is Vital to the Sales team, who uses the data to manage pricing, promotions and product features. Our team built a sophisticated integration to their ERP, SAP, integrating product data, Sales Data, Invoice Data, Pricing data & On Hand and On Order Inventory. But bringing this data into Salesforce was only the first step.  Once the data is present, Massanois users must be able to make sense of it.  BIG helped to make sense of the data by building out targeted reports and Dashboards that are available to the team, and refreshed hourly.
