Stamper Upgrades Online-RFQ Capabilities
Tuesday, March 08, 2005
Bettcher Amherst Metal Stamping, Brook Park, OH, has updated its website with a more accessible online quotation system. The upgrade promises to shorten the firm’s response time to customers, according to president Jerry Lynch. The quality-approval process has been streamlined, since each department has independent log-in ability to review quotes on their own time. Quotes can be accessed and modified from any computer in or out of the office. The system pulls dynamic material, labor and press rates, updated in real time, then delivers quotes as PDFs via e-mail. Bettcher is online at
