Preactor claims to have the largest installed base of any independent, production planning software company in the world.

Preactor International, the UK's leading specialist production planning and scheduling Software Company, has announced that the number of companies using its software is now over 2,000.

With customers in 64 countries, this is the largest installed base of any independent, production planning Software Company in the world and consolidates Preactor's growing reputation as a global solution provider.

Mike Novels, managing director of Preactor International commented on the significance of the news: "Manufacturers are beginning to realise that to remain competitive, they simply cannot continue to rely on spreadsheets for production planning and scheduling.

We are also seeing more and more interest from global companies wanting a single solution across all their plants but recognising that they need local support for the implementation.

They are correct in recognising the need to think global but to act local.

Our range of solutions can be customised to fit each plant's needs based on a single code base while our extensive accredited team of partners can provide the local expertise, training and implementation support that is also required".

And it is not just global brands that are benefiting from Preactor's award winning range of production planning solutions.

Interest is very strong from small to mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Preactor's latest release, version 10.

This represents the culmination of 15 years experience in the production planning software business combined with feedback of more than 8,000 users.

Novels concluded, "We are justly proud that many of our customers that invested in Preactor in our infancy remain happy, satisfied customers to this day.

Our unparalleled experience, now borne out by over 2,000 companies, makes Preactor a highly scaleable and flexible system that can grow and adapt as its users become ever more successful.
