OpSUITE information days
July 2010
News
ApplyIT recently hosted two successful OpSUITE information days in Johannesburg and Durban. The theme for the events was ‘Some things work better together’ and delegates came together to learn how to optimise plant operations using OpSUITE – ApplyIT’s comprehensive plant operations suite.”
The sessions took the form of interactive demonstrations in a simulated production plant, followed by a production meeting showcasing how the four modules that form OpSUITE work together on a Microsoft platform. The showcase also highlighted exciting new features and additional offerings soon to be released in OpSUITE version 5.
The underlying message was that when exceptional technologies are combined with good people, plant performance can be improved dramatically resulting in improved throughput, reduced downtime and waste, safer operations and ultimately better profitability.
Delegates took the opportunity to interact and network and left motivated to make their operations work better together.
