Testimonials

Skanem Cardiff Ltd

Operations Director

"If you can't see what's going wrong you can't fix it, and that's what Quantum does superbly - it shows you where you are going wrong.
From then on, to choose to ignore this information is completely negligent."

Insignia Pty Ltd

Head of Operations

"The results were striking. Within six weeks of operation, we saw a remarkable 20% increase in productivity across the two manufacturing sites! The immediate changes we saw were around increased press speed, with operators more focused on the press running speed and job time and material targets

Peacock Brothers

Operations Director

"We are seeing a lot of positive feedback from the operators now that everything is visible, and there is a conscious concern around actual job performance vs estimates. I've also seen a noticeable positive change in the working environment with a fresh competitive edge."

Finecal UK

Chairman

"To stay competitive we have to be as efficient as we possibly can. We have been using Quantum for the past twelve months to identify weaknesses in our printing operations. Now that we have seen the results that can be achieved we are also extending it to our print finishing lines"

Chesapeake, Bristol, UK

Developer

"After using Quantum for just one day we were astonished by the inaccuracy of the waste figures that we were logging on our manual job sheets. Quantum opened our eyes to our production problems and ultimately changed the way we work."
