Success Stories
Bell Helicopter Success with GAINS

- Ensured compliance with Military PBL contract requirements on budget, on time.
- Provided an effective customer service performance report and vendor score card.

“Bell Flight has been recognized as having the best customer service in the industry for many years, even before we installed GAINS. Now that GAINS is installed, however, we are able to provide the best service in the industry with 19% less inventory and 30% lower handling costs.”
