The Bectran Credit Management Solution enables customers, including Michelin, Ben E.

How Leading Corporations Benefit from Bectran’s Credit, Collections, and Accounts Receivable Management Platform

Michelin

“Michelin sought to find a credit management solution that had full integration capabilities with our current CRM. We needed this integration to give our team instant access to the whole customer history, enabling them to make data driven credit decisions. With weekly implementation meetings and the full support of Bectran’s technical team, information from our CRM was seamlessly integrated into the Bectran application. The automated data aggregation and credit evaluation capabilities of Bectran’s IDM supported Michelin’s credit department in making quicker data driven credit decisions,” said Tim Murphy, senior information systems project manager at Michelin, the world-leading manufacturer and distributor of tires.

Ben E. Keith

“Prior to Ben E. Keith’s partnership with Bectran, our credit application process delivered customers with a less than ideal user experience. The process was entirely manual with multiple friction points that extended the sales cycle. Bectran’s Electronic Credit Application tool helped Ben E. Keith eliminate those friction points and shorten the approval process through automation. Our credit teams and customers adapted quickly to the Bectran platform, which is a testament to the implementation process and the support and resources that Bectran provided,” said Dan Harvick, vice president of credit at Ben E. Keith Company, the fifth largest food service distributor in the United States.

Floor and Decor

“Manual spreadsheet data entry and analysis no longer supported Floor and Decor’s increased credit application volume, and traditional methods of reporting provided few actionable insights. Bectran’s cloud-based credit management solution gave our credit teams the visibility and real-time data needed to develop a sustainable risk mitigation strategy. Automated workflows and process standardization allow the credit department to deliver accurate credit decisions faster, improving Floor and Decor’s total cashflow and putting the company in a healthy financial position to promote future expansion,” said Len Brown, director of commercial credit at Floor & Decor, a specialty retailer and wholesaler of hard surface flooring.
