Today at the ITEX 2015 National Conference and Expo taking place in Fort Lauderdale, FL, OKI Data Americas and MWA Intelligence (MWAi®) will introduce and demonstrate the integration of the FORZA solution with select OKI open platform multifunction devices (MFPs). With this announcement, OKI becomes a preferred hardware vendor of the FORZA solution for office automation and imaging channel resellers.
FORZA with SAP Business One is a comprehensive and integrated software solution built to meet the enterprise relationship planning needs of imaging channel dealers. The single sign-on, single database business management platform offers dealers an alternative to their current business system and third-party software programs by capturing all critical information across sales, customers, finances, inventory, services, mobility and operations and delivering this information in real-time. This allows dealers to streamline operations and improve processes to grow and expand their business.
Demonstrations of the FORZA solution in conjunction with OKI smart MFPs are scheduled to take place in the OKI booth (905) during the ITEX show on Wednesday, March 11, 2015 at 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. EDT, and on Thursday, March 12, 2015 at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.
“OKI Data is pleased to announce our collaboration with MWAi on integration of its powerful FORZA solution with our smart MFPs to benefit our imaging channel resellers,” said Mike Garofola, Senior Marketing Manager for Channel Marketing at OKI Data Americas. “OKI Data offers dealers a broad portfolio of printing solutions to meet the current and emerging needs of the marketplace. With the addition of being a preferred hardware vendor for FORZA, OKI Data further demonstrates its value to imaging resellers and the dealer channel.”
According to Michael T. Stramaglio, President and CEO of MWA Intelligence, Inc., “MWAi is excited to announce a new and important alliance with OKI Data Americas – a relationship designed to deliver, in phases, the direct integration of the well-received OKI engines into the MWAi FORZA SAP Business One Platform.”
Stramaglio continued, “The objective of FORZA is to optimize the full design capability of everything from service alerts, true automated metering, bi-directional communication and, ultimately, the opportunity to integrate the best possible data and analytics throughout the supply chain process. MWAi and OKI Data have been working together to deliver a substantial value proposition for the dealer community and end-users, alike.”
