24 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S

24 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S LINK Paul A. DeFalco, a longtime Computer Insights, Inc. employee has been named their Supply Chain Integration Manager. Dennis R. Cowhey, CEO, made the announcement on April 12, 2012. Denny said, “Paul will be in charge of what I call our Alphabet projects. These include; BBC (the Brighton-Best Connection), VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory), API (Application Programming Interface), UPS Integration, CCI (Credit Card Integration), B2B (eCommerce Interfaces), FCH (Fastener Clearing House) and EDI (Electronic Data Interexchange). He will direct the further development of each of these extended capabilities of The BUSINESS EDGE 2.0.” Paul has a rich variety of experience. He owned a carpenter contracting business since 1988, and became interested in computers when he discovered Autocad. He realized that computers could help his business be more productive. He later got out of the construction business to create a document management application that would store drawings and specs for fastener distributors. Paul has been Microsoft Certified in VB and has worked extensively in Autocad. Paul has been programming in The BUSINESS EDGE 2.0 for about seven years. He has written all the programs for the Datamax and Zebra printers so that The BUSINESS EDGE 2.0 is able to communicate with them in their native languages, DPL, ZPL and EPL. Paul also developed and supported the VMI program for the Palm Scanners. In 2011, he created a brand new program that now works on iPhones, iPads, iPods and Android devices. This program received an Award from Fastener Technology International in 2011 for its innovative capabilities. He is also responsible for the Brighton-Best Connection, a very popular integration between The BUSINESS EDGE 2.0 and the Brighton-Best Web based system.
