Immediate availability of its new, fully integrated SalesForce CRM module has been announced by Khameleon Software. Giving sales reps tools to help them sell and providing managers with detailed insight into sales operations, the new sales force automation (SFA) module rounds out the Khameleon 7 project accounting software suite.

Khameleon's President, Douglas Angelone, declared: "We're excited because the new module helps companies make sales processes more efficient while, at the same time, they can see the full picture of what each project costs." He added: "We're giving sales reps practical tools that save them time. Now the sales, finance, and operations managers will be able to see the deals throughout the entire sales process. That means they can help out in cases where their support can make the sale."

So it's always at their fingertips: task history, sales notes, contact data, and important project documents, Khameleon's SalesForce CRM gives sales reps a place to track and store information they need during sales cycles. It also makes reps faster to respond to prospects asking for quotes: one mouse click to perform a step that takes hours or days when sales reps use standalone sales systems. As one click loads prospect data along with the opportunity, task history, and forecast data into the Order Entry module of Khameleon's project accounting software suite, there's no more double entry either.

So managers can monitor the cost of each opportunity, the new functionality, additionally, tracks all pre-sales labor and expense activity. As it flows through the lifecycle to completion, these costs stay with the project record so the entire cost and profitability of each engagement is delivered to the relevant Khameleon project accounting software Workbenches.
