How To Request Demo Equipment Through PREO

Written by Troy Toms

Step 1: Build the Proposal in PREO

  • Use PREO to build the proposal, just as you would for a standard order.

  • Add:

    • Items/devices

    • Ship‑to location

    • Pricing

    • Service plans

    • Any required credits

  • Request credit approval as needed. All required information must be entered directly in PREO.


Step 2: Generate Demo / Trial Paperwork

  • Demo/Trial paperwork is generated directly in PREO.

  • In the proposal:

    • Select Change Template

    • Choose Trial Paperwork

  • A pop‑out window will appear—be sure to select Trial Paperwork to generate the correct documents.

Step 3: Obtain Signatures & Upload Documents

  • Ensure the Demo/Trial paperwork is signed by the customer.

  • Upload the signed documents in PREO:

    • Navigate to Document Upload

    • Upload under Signed Order Package


Step 4: Submit for Review

  • Once all required information and documentation is complete, select Submit for Review to move the order forward.


Demo / Trial Pickup Scheduling

  • Demo/Trial equipment is pre‑scheduled for pickup 2 weeks after delivery and installation.

  • If the demo/trial converts to a sale:

    • A new order must be submitted

    • The pickup will be cancelled automatically

  • If a demo/trial converts before pickup:

    • Notify Logistics at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled pickup date to cancel the pickup request.


Demo / Trial Requests Over 2 Weeks (Pre‑Approval Required)

Demo/Trial requests exceeding 2 weeks require pre‑approval from the appropriate regional contact:

  • Northeast: Robert Leeman

  • Central: James Cvitkovich or Michael Finley

  • Southeast: Jeffrey Jackson

  • West: Megan Paulding

Second‑level escalation (if needed):

  • Frank Ferreira

  • Emilio Rios
