Agility Newsletter - Q1 2010

SoftSols: growing and developing

Welcome to the SoftSols Newsletter. There have been some exciting developments here in the last few months, including the launch of Agility 3.3 and our acquisition of the Plan4 CMMS. We attended MAINTEC 2010 manufacturing trade show with our Group Managing Director David Hipkin giving a presentation on Agile Maintenance and how it can improve your business and bottom line (link below).

We’ve also got a case study from flooring manufacturer Forbo who, since implementing Agility, complete over 200 per cent more logged maintenance requests and actions per month - with the same team and the same resources!

Looking forward, we’ve got four workshops coming up in the next few months. Take a look at the list below and see if there’s one in your area that could help you take your maintenance and facilities management to the next level.

Give us a call or drop us a line if you have any questions or comments.

Promoting Agile Maintenance at MAINTEC 2010

MAINTEC this year was a quiet show but the quality of visitors was high and the SoftSols team had some productive meetings. David Hipkin, SoftSols Group Managing Director, gave a presentation on Agile Maintenance which was well received and drew interested customers to our stand for further discussions. “The show was a good opportunity to meet and talk to customers about how they are using Agility in their businesses.  Visitors responded well to the new release of Agility 3.3 and my presentation prompted some interesting conversations,” said David.
