“It’s saving a lot of admin time. I’m able to focus on the other parts of my job instead of being buried in ordering. If you’re on IRIS FMS, I would highly recommend completing the integration with Findel. It’s a true one-stop-shop for all education resources.”
Shannon Barden, Procurement and Contract Manager, PCLC Trust
“I have moved from school to school and have actively promoted Findel for all class requisitions as the company is good to deal with. From the punchout ordering system, order acknowledgements and dispatch information, to the packaging and paperwork, Hope/Findel are excellent. On the odd occasion that there is a problem these are effectively dealt with.”
