Leading Medical Equipment and Supply Distributors Help Steer Solution Direction

YARDLEY, PA, March 24, 2005 - Distributors know best what will help them in their day-to-day operations. Understanding this, Prophet 21 regularly asks distribution leaders to serve on industry advisory councils. These councils meet regularly with Prophet 21 staffers and suggest different features and functionality that will help increase sales, improve customer service, and reduce operating costs.

"The best way to develop the tools distributors need to improve their businesses is to listen and learn from them," said Chuck Boyle, Prophet 21 president and CEO. "Prophet 21 developed CommerceCenter, the leading enterprise software solutions, based on our years of experience working with distributors, and we plan to continue to increase the functionality of CommerceCenter based on our distributors' changing needs."

The Medical Advisory Council recently held its kick-off meeting at Prophet 21's corporate headquarters in Yardley, PA. In addition to discussing industry trends and business processes, the council will offer feedback and guidance to help Prophet 21 develop stronger solutions and services for the medical industry.

Andy Wright, COO of Florida-based Mercedes Medical, Inc., attended the meeting. "Prophet 21 is definitely interested in hearing what we have to say," he said. "I'm optimistic that our suggestions will definitely allow CommerceCenter to stay the leading solution for medical distributors."

Other members of the Prophet 21 Medical Advisory Council include: Kent Nagel, general manager, Metro Medical Supply, and Craig Miller, vice president, operations, Turenne Pharmedco, Inc., Mark Ferguson, vice president, marketing, Sentry Surgical Supply, Inc., and Keith Luneberg, president, Direct Care Corporation.
