    Graco Announces Dealertrack Interface with Matrix® Total Fluid Management System

    Capturing every dispense and every dollar

    MINNEAPOLIS (Jan. 24, 2017) – Graco Inc. (NYSE: GGG), a leading manufacturer of fluid handling equipment, is pleased to announce the addition of a Dealertrack DMS (dealer management system) Opentrack platform interface with Graco’s Matrix Total Fluid Management System. With this new interface, users can ensure the right fluid and amount is used and billed to a valid work order every time.

    With this new functionality, service and parts managers can save time reconciling fluids each month, as they will already know exactly how much fluid was billed on each work order. Sources of fluid shrinkage also can be quickly identified. Business owners or general managers will benefit from a single system for managing and analyzing their business. With Dealertrack DMS and Graco’s Matrix fluid management system, users can be confident that every dispense will be the correct fluid, the right quantity and billed directly.

    “For added control, the Dealertrack DMS software and Opentrack platform ensure the correct fluid is being used and restricts the amount, preventing costly mistakes,” said Joshua Holmstadt, Graco’s Lubrication Equipment Division Global Product Marketing Manager. To get started, the technician simply enters or selects a work order in the Matrix system, where it is automatically validated with Dealertrack. “Technicians no longer need to manually track or enter the amount of fluid being dispensed,” added Holmstadt.

    “In addition to the benefits of a fluid management system, automation of record keeping saves time and improves accuracy, ensuring a seamless billing process,” said John Tate, Graco’s Lubrication Equipment Division Sales Director. “Graco is committed to integrating and working with the leading technologies and services in the dealership market to continuously improve processes for our customers.” For more information about the Matrix Total Fluid Management System interface with Dealertrack DMS or other dealer management systems, please visit www.gracomatrix.com.
