Why Customers Depend on Blue Account for Online Ordering

Blue Account Preview

Ordering plastic materials is only one part of a purchaser’s job. Keeping track of quotes, checking previous orders, managing invoices, and coordinating repeat purchases can take just as much time. When those tasks are spread across emails, phone calls, and paperwork, even a routine order can create unnecessary back-and-forth.

Piedmont Plastics Blue Account brings these tasks together in one convenient online ordering platform. Designed for existing Piedmont Plastics customers, Blue Account connects directly to your branch sales account. Customers can use it to:

Blue Account Features

  • Order or reorder eligible products
  • Request quotes
  • Pay invoices
  • Review account activity
  • Track orders
  • View statements and account info

For purchasing and accounting teams, that means less time tracking down information and more control over daily account management.

What Is Piedmont Plastics Blue Account?

Once connected to your existing Piedmont Plastics branch sales account, Blue Account gives you online access to account-specific information, including pricing, previous transactions, orders, invoices, and other account details.

Blue Account does not replace the relationship you have with your Piedmont sales team. Instead, it provides another way to work with them. You can handle routine transactions online at your convenience, while your sales representative remains available when you need product guidance, fabrication assistance, sourcing support, or help with a more complex project.

An Expert is just around the corner.

With over 100 years of combined product knowledge and industry experience, we are confident our plastics experts can help you find a solution for your application.

Order Plastic Products and Request Quotes Online

One of the biggest advantages of Blue Account is the ability to handle purchasing tasks on your schedule.

Traditional purchasing can involve sending emails, waiting for responses, and confirming information before an order is ready. That communication is valuable for complex projects, but it may not be necessary every time you need to purchase a familiar material.

Blue Account gives you options, depending on your needs. You can order products with verified pricing directly through your account. If a product is not available for direct online ordering, you can submit a quote request instead.

Some plastics purchases require more information. Material type, grade, thickness, dimensions, quantity, fabrication requirements, and other specifications can all affect an order. Through Blue Account, you can send your project requirements directly to your sales team for review and pricing. Purchasers can save time and keep projects moving by managing quotes and orders through the same platform.

Reorder in a Few Clicks from Your Order History

Repeat orders are common in manufacturing, signage, transportation, and many of the other industries Piedmont serves. When you buy the same material regularly, rebuilding the order from scratch every time is wasted effort.

Blue Account keeps your order history at your fingertips. Pull up a past order, confirm the material and quantity, and send it to your sales representative to place: no spreadsheet, no digging through old emails, no relying on memory. Your rep confirms pricing and availability, so you get the same accuracy you've always had with far less back-and-forth.

Track Orders and Access Account Information

Purchasers also need an easy way to track orders and access related account information. Blue Account keeps this information accessible from one place. You can use your account to:

  • Review current and past orders
  • Track order status
  • View account statements
  • Download current statements
  • Review invoices and payment information
  • Blue Account Preview

    *Centralized access can be especially valuable when purchasing, receiving, and accounting teams all need account information. Rather than searching through separate email threads or paper records, authorized users can find important account details through Blue Account.

    Simplify Invoice Management and Online Payments

    The benefits of Blue Account extend beyond purchasing.

    Accounting teams can use the platform to view invoice information and see what has been paid and what remains outstanding. Customers can also pay one or multiple open invoices online using ACH/EFT bank transfer.

    From locating invoices to coordinating payment information, managing these tasks online can reduce administrative work. Purchasing and accounting teams also gain greater visibility into account activity, making it easier to organize orders and payments.

    Manage Multiple Piedmont Accounts from One Login

    Some buyers are responsible for purchasing across multiple facilities, departments, or branch sales accounts. Managing a separate login for each one can quickly become cumbersome.

    Blue Account allows you to connect multiple Piedmont sales accounts to the same login and switch between them as needed. This feature makes it easier to keep each account organized and accessible. For companies with several locations, Blue Account can serve as a central point for managing day-to-day account activity.

    How to Register for a Piedmont Plastics Blue Account

    To get started, your sales representative can send you a Blue Invite. When you register through the invitation, Blue Account automatically connects to your branch sales account.

    You can also register for Blue Account directly. If you choose this option, you will need to verify and link your existing branch sales account by providing:

    1. Your Piedmont Plastics customer number
    2. A recent Piedmont invoice or quote number
    3. The total amount from that invoice or quote

    Ready to simplify your online plastic ordering? Blue Account gives you greater control over purchasing and account management, with convenient online access whenever you need it.
