Trakware Systems Announces Its Participation in AWFS Fair 2011


Focus on workflow and mobility: TSI to Exhibit their latest innovative solutions at the Association of Woodworking & Furniture Suppliers, July 20-23, 2011 at the Las Vegas Convention Center

EDMONTON, Alberta - Trakware Systems (www.trakware.com.com), a leading provider of business management software and services for custom/contract/project-based manufacturers and fabricators, today announced its executive participation at the upcoming AWFS Fair 2011, a full-scale international event that brings together thousands of woodworking professionals from around the world to preview new technology. Trakware is teaming with Planet Group's Workpoint BPM, and DCC's Warehouse XT / DocXT to exhibit the value added integrated extensions to its flagship enterprise solution, ProjectTRAK.

"We are honored that Workpoint and DCC are with us to participate in this AWFS FAIR that is focusing on innovation and opportunity," said Norman Fink, Executive Vice President for Trakware. "We will showcase our innovative custom manufacturing solutions. AWFS attendees will get a first-hand look at the newest developments that are bringing visibility, agility, efficiency, and competitive advantage to our clients across North America."

Empowered by the vast capabilities of consumer-grade mobile devices and applications, highly competitive companies are now seeking mobility to extend and expand the use of ERP. These companies share a vision to extend their ERP systems and their business processes to take full advantage of the capabilities that mobility offers. Trakware was first in the woodworking industry to release a TimeTrack mobile solution (AWFS Vegas 2005), which is an extension that collects and reports location, time and job information from any GPS-enabled mobile device. The company continues to place strong focus on providing solution leadership to workflow and the mobile enterprise, and looks forward to speaking with AWFS attendees on how our solution can highly, and immediately benefit all aspects of their custom/project based business.

Market proven for more than 15 years, Workpoint BPM, an industrial strength Business Process Management solution, that coordinates all aspects of a process - people, rules, tasks and systems - into a cohesive whole. Workpoint BPM delivers the utmost level of agility, visibility and control by providing end-to-end process management and automation. Streamlining business processes, such as the estimating process, among multiple teams, divisions or locations, the Workpoint addition enables manufacturers to become more efficient in their business practices and thus gaining a competitive advantage in the market.

Nick Carter, President at DCC, stated, "Our depth and breadth of experience at DCC cannot go without mention of our Woodware division, which was founded in 1983. WoodWare was the first software and technology company to introduce barcode scanning technology to the millwork distribution industry, and has customers all over the US." Nick further adds, "With our WarehouseXT, inventory accuracy will exceed 99 percent, removing huge costs from manual tracking, updating, errors, and misplaced products. This translates to over 600% savings in labor costs for the inventory management process. Our latest product, DocXT, means that the average company can save over $8,000 in time looking for documents and information alone. So we are thrilled to participate in this event with Trakware, and to complement the solution focus on significant process/workflow efficiency improvements."
