Jobscope Corporation, provider of a comprehensive ERP manufacturing software for Engineer to Order, Make to Order, Job Shop, Government Contractors, and Maintenance Repair and Overhaul manufacturers, recently held an Advisory Council meeting with customer representatives to discuss functionality and future product direction for the JOBSCOPE IBM iSeries software solution. This particular version of JOBSCOPE is specifically designed for the IBM platform and is a popular application for customers who prefer an iSeries AS/400-based ERP manufacturing software system.
The Jobscope IBM iSeries product development and management team facilitated open discussions on existing functionality, development plans and potential enhancements for product improvement initiatives. An overview and demonstration of recent product enhancements including the newly developed web screens was given by Jobscope's Shigemi Heffernan, Vice President of Product Development for the IBM iSeries solution. Hank Sanders, President of Jobscope, reiterated the company's commitment to the IBM platform and high emphasis on consistently delivering a quality product for all customers. Open discussions took place enabling customers to provide input, ideas and suggestions for the JOBSCOPE Manufacturing Software for IBM iSeries product roadmap planning. All JOBSCOPE Advisory Council meetings encourage this type of interaction as a way for customers to be heard.
William E. (Chip) Edwards, III, President & CEO, Cardinal Aluminum Company says "The JOBSCOPE Advisory Council is a great way for the JOBSCOPE users to make a direct impact on the priorities for further development of the JOBSCOPE product. The meetings offer opportunities for 2-way exchanges between the application architects and the users resulting in a bigger and better idea base. I have always found that the software professionals at Jobscope have leading ideas for control and utility for their software. Facilitating this kind of participation helps keep Jobscope manufacturing software at the forefront of leading software ideas and value."
"Our iSeries ERP manufacturing software continues to be a great fit for our customers who prefer the IBM platform," says Hank Sanders, President of Jobscope Corporation. "When we bring this group together each year, discussions are always beneficial for attendees as well as our product development team. Giving customers a forum that is designed for their participation is just one way we demonstrate how much we value their input which helps set the stage for our product development direction."
