Computer Purchase Plan

     My company is a medical sales distributorship that uses its personnel to sell medical products and supplies to hospitals so that they may be used in medical procedures. The bulk of the work that the computers will be doing involves scheduling, ordering, inventory, and payroll. In order for this company to work at is highest capacity, the computer that I choose will need speed, storage, and the capability to view large numbers of inventory at once.
     Currently, my company uses a standard PC that can be bought by any consumer at any technology store. These computers would be better suited for the average consumer because of their storage capacity and speed. My employees need to be able to view more information than can be reached by a single screen, such as looking at scheduling and inventory for delivery to be able to relay the information to the buyers of their products. Business is going well, and the budget allows for better and more specifically purchased technology to continue growth. My information was obtained at https://www.neweggbusiness.com
