4CS, the leading warranty and service lifecycle management software
provider, announced today that Dixie Chopper, manufacturer of the
world’s fastest lawn mowers, has selected 4CS iWarranty and iParts
software to streamline warranty and service parts ordering processes.
Dixie Chopper will implement the 4CS software to be able to
automate and validate all the warranty processes, including product
registration, notifications of campaign and service bulletins, warranty
claims, parts returns and supplier recovery. 4CS iWarranty will enable
Dixie Chopper dealers to submit claims and create registrations using a
web interface while the data is validated using extensive business
rules. Parts returns, inspection data and supplier recovery will be
tracked and managed better through the 4CS system. Better reporting will
help address the product and vendor issues in a timely fashion.
Parke Lucas, North American Service Manager for Dixie Chopper,
is excited about the possibilities.
"Dixie Chopper builds the most productive and reliable mowers
in the industry," Lucas said. "We wanted to provide an easy-to-use
system for our dealers to submit warranty claims and parts orders while
allowing Dixie Chopper to audit warranty data and capture problems
quickly. Today, it is very inefficient and hard to track supplier
recovery and compile warranty data. The 4CS solution will enable us to
streamline all processes and improve returns tracking, supplier recovery
and warranty analysis. The solution capabilities, integration with MS
Dynamics and the value we can quickly realize are the important factors
in our selection of 4CS software."
"We are delighted to support Dixie Chopper’s commitment to
customer service and quality products," said Ashok Kartham, 4CS
President and CEO. "Dixie Chopper will benefit from our proven warranty
lifecycle management solution for the industry to save warranty costs,
increase service parts sales and improve service to their dealers and
customers."
"iWarranty and iParts software addresses the service business
needs of the outdoor power equipment industry very well," added Sarah
Studnicka, 4CS Account Manager. "We are proud to have Dixie Chopper as
our customer. 4CS software meets Dixie Chopper’s business needs
out-of-the-box, leading to a faster implementation."
