Leading Global Provider of Industrial Automation Solutions Rolls Out Its Dashboard of Core Metrics with DataDrill EXPRESS

Fredericksburg, VA – August 16, 2007 - Distributive Management today announced that one US division of a global industrial automation control and information solutions company plans commencement of division-wide performance management and CMMI-focused process improvement programs using DataDrill Express - Distributive Management’s dashboard software for performance management. The first phase centers on a core set of metrics deployed across all units in the division.

The company focuses on helping manufacturers achieve a competitive advantage in their businesses through the implementation of industrial automation power, control and information solutions.

Critical decision factors include shorter time-to-deploy and ease of data source integration, two factors separating DataDrill EXPRESS from other commercial solutions. These strengths, combined with access to customized support services from Distributive Management, led to the ultimate decision. “Because DataDrill EXPRESS doesn’t create a burden for IT resources to install, configure and deploy, organizations save significant time and a lot of money,” says Don Baxter, Distributive Sales.

Of primary importance, however, is the ease with which DataDrill EXPRESS enables the organization to deploy a standard set of core metrics consistently across sites and programs while still allowing each area the flexibility to report unique metrics of their own. “With EXPRESS, they have an automated way to collect all data in support of all their dashboard measures,” says Baxter. “It’s easily maintainable and always expandable to meet the growing and changing needs of the innovative organization.”
