“The creation of our APAC headquarters demonstrates our strong commitment to better serve our rapidly growing client base, and will enable us to more effectively capitalize on global market opportunities,” said Eric Hinkle, CEO for Servigistics. “Building on our already strong relationships with clients such as Toshiba Medical and others with large APAC operations, this expansion, under the capable leadership of Hiroshi Shimizu, provides the foundation for further success with clients and prospective clients in the region. Our operational infrastructure now mirrors the truly global nature of our platform, which is a single instance, multi-language and multi-currency application that addresses the needs of all stakeholders across all locations in an extended, worldwide service network.”

“Globalization and competitive pressures are forcing leading companies to differentiate themselves not only on product strengths, but more importantly on the quality of the service they deliver after the initial product sale,’’ said Hiroshi Shimizu, General Manager of APAC for Servigistics. “This evolving market dynamic is driving leading companies to search for technology platforms that can quickly and dramatically improve worldwide service operations. Servigistics’ proven track record of delivering dramatic value through global deployments with 100% referenceable, market-leading clients, coupled with the global reach of our company, which now has local presence in every major region of the world, uniquely positions us to meet this critical need.”
