Process Software Specialist Extends into South America
September 18, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Process and paper industry software specialist QISoft, already well established in Europe and North America, have engaged a new agent, Automat, based in Sao Paulo. A provider of cross directional process control and moisture and calliper control systems for the paper industry with a blue-chip customer base, Automat will represent QISoft in Brazil and throughout South America. Until now, business in South America was handled by QISoft in the USA. This support will remain in place during the handover period to ensure continuity of service. During the handover, QISoft will provide training for Automat staff who will translate software manuals and other training materials into Portuguese and Spanish to ensure a truly localised service.
Gilson Louiz Adorno, commented for Automat, “We have already received a number of enquiries from companies who are very enthusiastic about the ability to improve process yields and add value by integrating QIS software into existing process control and management systems. Due to the global nature of the industry QISoft already has a strong reputation for product innovation and customer service and we look forward to a long and productive partnership.”
On behalf of QISoft, president Kevin Luxton said, “We are delighted with the appointment of Automat and see this as strategically important to our plan to expand internationally. Customers will appreciate the benefit of having local support to help maximise their return from an investment in QIS.”
Visitors to the ABTCP-PI 2005 exhibition in Sao Paulo between 17th and 20th October will be able to meet Automat and QISoft technical staff and see a demonstration of QIS manufacturing execution systems.
