EXHIBIT A
Teraoka Seiko
Teraoka Seiko, a Japanese manufacturer of tracking and point-of-sale
devices and weighing scales focused on the supermarket industry, has over 200
field engineers in 40 centers in Japan and services 80,000 pieces of equipment.
Teraoka also works with a global network of third-party distributors that sell
and service Teraoka's products outside Japan. Teraoka Seiko decided to replace
its existing system with Service Suite to support their service business and
increase service revenues, engineer productivity and customer satisfaction.
Teraoka Seiko implemented two of Service Suite's modules, Workforce Management
and Service Contract. In the future, Teraoka Seiko plans to implement Supply
Chain and Repair Depot. These implementations included interfaces with Teraoka
Seiko's accounting and database systems. Teraoka Seiko is in the process of
implementing our Service Hub to manage its community of field engineers as well
as the field engineers of its global network of third-party distributors and
vendors. This field engineering solution will provide field engineers with a
call reporting utility to enable field engineers to issue accurate invoices on
site by using wireless devices. Teraoka Seiko also plans to offer to third-party
vendors an internet-based parts ordering system to facilitate faster and less
costly parts shipments.
