New solution provides TAMKO dealers and
contractors with remote sales tool to measure, design, and close
roofing jobs with homeowners, all from an online
platform
CALGARY, April 9, 2020 /CNW/ - Renoworks Software Inc.
(TSXV: RW) ("Renoworks") is proud to announce that its
remote measurement and 3D model technology is now being used by
nationwide roofing manufacturer, TAMKO Building Products LLC
("TAMKO"), and TAMKO's expanding network of roofers, contractors,
and dealers to address the pressing challenges facing the roofing
industry today.
This technology integrates seamlessly into the existing TAMKO
Shingle Styles visualizer and is powered by the Renoworks
Platform.
The Renoworks Platform unifies photorealistic design
visualizations, 3D interactive models, and precise roofing
measurements (powered by EagleView®) in a single project-planning
interface that can be digitally shared between a contractor,
dealer, and the homeowner, eliminating the need for in-person sales
visits.
Combined with TAMKO's extensive offering of roofing products,
this winning combination will provide a much-needed virtual sales
tool to TAMKO customers and give homeowners the confidence they
need to purchase a new TAMKO roof without needing to leave the home
or meet the contractor in-person.
A Virtual & Effortless Roof Estimation Process
With the global health risks posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, and
social distancing in effect, homeowners are reluctant to book
in-person sales meetings with roofers. This has caused a disruption
in traditional methods of the sales process as roofers can no
longer take on-site measurements or photos of the home for quoting
and estimating, adding difficulty to securing the bid.
This also poses a challenge for homeowners who want to obtain
quotes, choose the right contractor, and decide on roofing product
and color options while ensuring that they and their families are
safe throughout the process.
The Renoworks remote measurement and design solution solves this
problem by enabling customers to order realistic roof
visualizations, 3D models, and accurate roof measurement
reports. Information includes roof dimensions, areas, slopes,
roof squares, and other vital information, all from the TAMKO
Shingle Styles visualizer, and helps enable a contact-free process
for design, estimation, and bidding.
The platform's design capabilities will also help TAMKO's
network of roofers and contractors set better expectations with
homeowners, resulting in a reduction of change requests and an
increase in buyer confidence.
Homeowners can also take advantage of the platform to understand
and control more of their renovation process before proceeding to
find contractors to complete their roofing projects.
"TAMKO is always looking for ways to continuously improve the
homeowner experience and help roofers and contractors bring more
value and quality to homeowners," said Stephen McNally, Vice President of Sales &
Marketing for TAMKO. "Renoworks provides a critical technology that
TAMKO can put in the hands of roofers and dealers to help
homeowners plan their roofing projects. In the current global
environment where social distancing has become a necessity, this
timely solution also provides a virtual sales tool that facilitates
a 'touchless' roof replacement bidding process."
"We see the Renoworks Platform with our integrated remote
measurement and 3D visualization technology as a portal to a larger
ecosystem for our manufacturer clients," said Doug Vickerson, CEO of Renoworks. "As a tool for
improving remote workflow, it will help the manufacturer's network
of contractors engage with better qualified and project-ready
homeowners. As a solution built on our evolving Renoworks platform,
it will leverage all our ongoing work in visualization and data,
which will provide new opportunities and innovative workflows for
the industry now and in the future. We are proud to help enable
this level of remote work for TAMKO's customers and look forward to
our growth together."
The new all-in-one TAMKO solution built on Renoworks FastTrack
can be found at https://tamko.renoworks.com where TAMKO customers
can order roof reports and design their roofing projects in both
photo-realistic and 3D visualizations.
