Leading warewashing manufacturer chooses Pinnacle
Watford, 6 July 2001. The UK subsidiary of Europe's leading
manufacturer of commercial warewashing equipment, Meiko UK Ltd, has
committed to a state-of-the-art service management solution from Pinnacle
Computer Systems Ltd as a platform for growth over the next few years.
With over fifty trained service engineers (direct employed and sub
contract) covering the UK and Eire, Meiko UK Ltd, the wholly owned
subsidiary of German-based Meiko Maschinenbau GmbH, designs, manufactures
and installs advanced warewashing products for a wide range of sectors
including hotels, restaurants, airports and hospitals.
Having recognised that its existing service management solution would
not provide the functionality to support its growth ambitions, Meiko
began evaluating a number of leading systems, including Pinnacle's
Service Director, citing its key requirements as a user-friendly,
off-the-shelf-solution which provided the company with extremely high
levels of customer support.
After a tender process incorporating thorough research on the solutions
currently available, Meiko found that Service Director returned the
best performance characteristics in almost every area of functionality.
In fact, the product met 94% of requirements without customisation.
Although Meiko's current needs were paramount, the company was also
keen to invest in a system which would allow future expansion. These
included mobile data/communications functionality and integration
with its financial package which, while not a current requirement,
would become an intrinsic element of the system in the near future.
"Pinnacle has listened to our ideas and, where possible, incorporated
them into a package perfectly suited for our requirements. They have
provided high levels of support and accessibility which is vital for
a service management solution and so important to us," commented
Meiko's Finance & Administration Director, Andrew Goodman.
Goodman continued, "The service we have received from Pinnacle
has been outstanding. We have 100% confidence in Service Director,
now and for our continuing growth in the future."
