incorporated her knowledge and expertise of computer programming into a
functional and easy-to-use system that allows our sales staff to quote
customers off a central database. We then input item information
directly onto a customer's own forms or a Kahn & Comings formal
quote. This database is compiled and includes every factory that we
represent. This system is multi-factory friendly and was revolutionary
in the industry. The Kahn & Comings system, designed by Jean, has
been purchased and used by other top firms around the country. Jean
also works directly with M.I.S. Managers from our top retail chains to
explore and create more efficient processing of the immense data that
