Exact JobBOSS Announces New Manufacturing Training Program
Initial focus to be on Lean Manufacturing and Quality
MINNEAPOLIS - February 12, 2007 - Exact Software(TM), a leading provider of solutions that connect the people, processes and knowledge essential to an organization, today announced that the company's Exact JobBOSS® division has initiated a new manufacturing training program to help their customers address the global issues that face today's manufacturers.
Developed specifically for the owners, managers and employees of small manufacturers, the program will be spearheaded by Robert Wolinski, who was recently appointed as JobBOSS senior consultant. A certified Six Sigma Black Belt, Mr. Wolinski holds a Ph. D. in Computer Information Systems from Seattle University. His professional background includes significant manufacturing, operations, quality, engineering and IT leadership experience. As the newest member of the JobBOSS training team, Mr. Wolinksi will develop and implement training programs that leverage the company's broad base of manufacturing experience. "Our software has always helped small manufacturers compete and win," says Matt Heerey, professional services director for Exact JobBOSS. "Our decision to offer lean manufacturing, quality and other training programs is a natural extension of our commitment to our customers' success."
Classes will start in early March 2007 with seminars to be scheduled at key locations across the country. Focusing on the issues of most concern to small manufacturers, the classes are designed to provide immediate value. "We're not just talking theory here," says Wolinksi. "When our students get back to their shops, they'll be able to immediately add real value to their employers' bottom lines."
"Our business started in 1984 with the goal of helping our customers succeed in their manufacturing initiatives," said Heerey. "But with more global competition than ever before, we believe the time is right to leverage our leadership position and extensive experience to help small manufacturers compete with more than just IT."
Exact JobBOSS is the leader in shop management software for job shops, small to medium-sized make-to-order, engineer-to-order, contract and mixed-mode manufacturers, and has maintained that leadership standing since it was originally developed in Minneapolis, MN in 1984.
