Introduction

First Supply, a Midwest-based distributor and trusted NSA partner, has been a cornerstone for contractors and professionals in plumbing, HVAC, waterworks, and industrial supplies. Renowned for its reliability, First Supply recognized the need to elevate its digital infrastructure to keep pace with growing customer expectations for efficient, seamless interactions.

The Challenge

Despite investing heavily in customizing their desktop website for enhanced functionality, First Supply faced a significant challenge: their mobile app lagged behind. The disjointed digital experience between the desktop and mobile platforms left customers navigating two vastly different systems. Internal teams also felt the strain, as managing disconnected platforms created duplicated efforts and operational bottlenecks.

The Solution

To tackle these challenges head-on, First Supply partnered with Moblico to implement an integrated mobile engagement platform. Key highlights of the solution included:

  • Cross-Platform Integration: Moblico ensured that customizations from First Supply’s desktop site were seamlessly reflected in their mobile app, creating a unified experience.
  • Enhanced Mobile Functionality: The app was tailored to match the desktop platform’s functionality, empowering users with equal access and capabilities on any device.
  • Streamlined Communication: With business messaging integrated into the app, First Supply enhanced customer interactions, boosting responsiveness and satisfaction.

Implementation

Moblico worked closely with First Supply to understand their existing infrastructure and specific needs. The collaboration involved detailed testing, improvements, and thorough training to ensure both staff and customers could seamlessly transition to the new platform.

The Results

The partnership with Moblico yielded transformative results:

  • Consistent User Experience: Customers now enjoy a seamless experience across desktop and mobile platforms, significantly enhancing satisfaction.
  • Boosted Mobile Engagement: Contractors embraced the improved mobile app, which allowed them to access essential tools and information on the go, improving productivity.
  • Operational Efficiency: Internal teams benefited from streamlined processes, eliminating redundant efforts across platforms.
  • Enhanced Customizations: All desktop custom features were successfully integrated into the mobile app, delivering a powerful and consistent user interface.

Customer Feedback

First Supply’s customers quickly noticed the difference. The mobile app’s ease of use and feature parity with the desktop platform received high praise, transforming how contractors interacted with First Supply’s services. Many expressed appreciation for the convenience and efficiency the unified platform provided.

Conclusion

First Supply’s collaboration with Moblico stands as a benchmark for digital innovation in the distribution industry. By aligning their desktop and mobile platforms, they not only improved customer satisfaction but also streamlined their operations, positioning themselves as a forward-thinking leader.
