Order Entry & Processing:
Accurately enter custom orders into our ERP/MRP system, ensuring all material specifications, tolerances, and delivery dates are correctly logged.
Account Management:
Proactively follow up on open quotes, identify opportunities to up-sell or cross-sell services (e.g., hardware insertion, powder coating), and nurture long-term client relationships.
