2008 was another great year for Syncron with revenue growing by 17%. Syncron was also for the second consecutive year ranked as the fastest growing supply chain management software vendor in EMEA, and for the fourth consecutive year AAA-rated by Dun & Bradstreet.
Global leaders including Volvo CE, JCB, Scania, Sandvik and Atlas Copco among others, use Syncron solutions to streamline their global supply chain processes resulting in significant performance improvements and cost savings. A recent addition to the customer base is Komatsu Ltd. headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. With Komatsu, 6 out of the top 12 global companies within mining and construction equipment have now selected Syncron as their supply chain partner. “What sets Syncron apart from its competition is its ability to easily and effectively deliver flexible, cutting-edge technology solutions that create tremendous value to some of the most sophisticated manufacturing and distribution companies across the globe”, says Anders Grudén, CEO of Syncron International.
Operations in Asia were established in 2008, an important milestone in Syncron’s global expansion and a strategic complement to the US and European operations, making Syncron a truly global company by providing 24/7 availability and customer support. The international management team has been strengthened with top recruits of Dag Sjöqvist as CFO, previously at ABB HQ in Zurich, and Fredrik Lundberg, previously at Accenture, as head of Professional Services. “We now have a strong global platform, an exceptionally talented management team and a market position forming a unique basis for our continued growth, and the fulfillment of our vision of being the leading vendor in our defined market of industry verticals and application segments - globally”, says Mr Grudén.
Syncron Solutions v8, a new generation of Syncron’s Supply Chain Management suite was released at the end of 2008. "With the launch of v8, we certainly increase the distance from our competitors and strengthen our position as the global leader in our market. With the release of the new generation of our product portfolio our customers will get access to a completely new set of capabilities enabling them to further enhance their global supply chain performance.”
