multi-manufacturer and multi-pro- tocol support. In the future, with one glance, users will be able to monitor all energy consumption in order to better control expen- ditures. They will have access to remote maintenance service, ren- dering their electricians even more responsive and closer in proximity to their installations. In 2014, Rexel France launched Esabora, a new software suite comprising four modules: the first is a field sales support tool that offers tablet-based simu- lators. The most efficient and cost-effective solutions are ex- plained and compared. The sec- ond module enables the intuitive creation of the electrical circuit

setup, panel layout and single-line diagram, as well as the installa- tion s compliance with norms. The third provides all the necessary fea- tures to manage a business and enables cost estimate creation and work progress monitoring. Finally, the last module offers over 800,000 product references with customized and regularly updated prices. To help remove barriers to financ- ing, Rexel is also developing finan- cial services thanks to framework contracts with credit agencies. The financial solutions offered can cover the costs of supplies and installation, and integrate government incentives and fiscal measures.
