Although the company had been monitoringinventory at the warehouse level, there was still a problem with loss. Once the parts left the warehouse, there was no accountability for installation and billing.

After reviewing several options, PM Swimming Pool Service went with ServiceCEO to manage scheduling, inventory and other functions of the business.
