Goings On at Hagerman & Company, Inc.

Many New Initiatives Now Underway!

We are expanding our product offerings throughout the company. Some significant new hires are on board. We are responding to the recession by finding new ways to serve our customer base. Here are a few examples:
 

P&ID Software ? We?re proud to offer Autodesk?s new P&ID software, which we will be marketing nationwide. P&ID is used by customers who move fluid of any type through pipes. Oil and gas are primary examples, but also things like beer, milk, and chemicals require the design of piping and instrumentation. All Hagerman sales reps and solutions engineers are involved in this initiative and David Cruze of our Knoxville office is heading up the technical support for this product. David has extensive experience with P&ID before coming to Hagerman. Joe Riley in Indianapolis will be our dedicated sales rep for the product. Most Autodesk customers currently use AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT for P&ID applications. The new P&ID software gives them much enhanced capabilities, specifically designed for this task. If your design work involves P&ID, please give us a call to find out more about this great new product.	Joe Riley

Ecotect Analysis Software ? Ecotect Analysis is Autodesk?s new software that enables designers to analyze their architectural designs for energy efficiency and carbon neutrality. It also enables them to view the effect of sun and shadow on their buildings, before they are constructed. In connection with this new offering, we have hired Scott Schuette, LEED Accredited Professional, in our St. Louis office to assist our customers with the implementation of Ecotect Analysis and their LEED projects. LEED is an acronym for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, established by the Green Building Council. We?re pleased to be able to offer LEED consulting services to our clients and assist them with the implementation of Ecotect Analysis in their practices.	Scott Schuette
SugarCRM - We have become a reseller for SugarCRM, the world?s leading open source CRM software. We are also in the process of implementing it for our own use.  Open source is one of the leading initiatives in the software world, enabling companies or individuals to acquire software for free and develop their own implementations based on it. It has led to considerable advances in the quality of software. While SugarCRM can be freely downloaded and used, and millions of people have done so, the commercial version developed by SugarCRM is available only through authorized resellers such as ourselves, who assist with implementation and customization. We look forward to increasing our CRM practice with this highly regarded product. We should add that it can be implemented either as a local LAN- or WAN-based solution, or in hosted, on-demand format.
Government Sales - We?re expanding our dedication and commitment to government customers by expanding our sales to local, state, and federal buyers. In this regard we?ve expanded the Chicago staff to include a dedicated government sales representative - Eliot Costianis, who is a successful and experienced government sales executive. Eliot spent five years in CDW?s government sales operation in Chicago, selling many types of technology, including AutoCAD, to government buyers. He?s working now in our One East Wacker office and is making great headway in this new position. Eliot is handling Illinois and Indiana government business, and we?re also ramping up government sales efforts in Missouri and Tennessee with the existing sales staff in those states.	Eliot Costianis
MCAD in Southern California ? We?re changing the game in Southern California with the addition of industry veteran Bob Coan to our staff in Anaheim. Bob developed an outstanding Autodesk business in Southern California in the 80s and later became the world?s largest reseller of Solid Works, selling from four offices in that area. He ultimately sold the reseller business, but has now decided to return to the CAD industry and has chosen to work for the outstanding Autodesk reseller in Southern California, Hagerman & Company, Inc. Bob is particularly impressed with Autodesk?s digital prototyping strategy, which is displacing many of the current solid modeling contenders around the world. We welcome Bob to the team and look for great success as he renews his acquaintances with many of the top firms in Southern California.	Bob Coan
