LINPAC Chooses Certero AssetStudio™

25 July 2008

LINPAC is a £1.1bn global business made up of four core divisions which together offer their customers tailored packaging and materials handling products and services. LINPAC's 9,000 employees are based out of 90 locations worldwide providing packaging and supply chain solutions across five continents.

Simon Warrington, VP of IT, LINPAC, said: "LINPAC has grown into a global business which means that the tracking and management of our IT assets had become challenging. We looked for a product that could manage all our requirements for both hardware and software assets. Certero AssetStudio impressed us because functionally, it meets our requirements plus has many additional features which help automate our operation such as Software Delivery, Dynamic Groups and Systems Management integration."

"Architecturally, AssetStudio being a newly developed product meant that there weren’t any legacy issues to worry about. This was important to us as we did not want to have different modules performing different functions that needed to be separately integrated. The AssetStudio modules have been designed to be best in class at their particular function. Joined together, they really do add an extra dimension to its capability, which is great for us given our size and complexity. We now have the added confidence to know that LINPAC’s assets are being managed to derive maximum benefit to the business and we can now easily identify waste, which can be proactively removed."

Clive Mayos, Head of Service Delivery, LINPAC, said: "Certero were and continue to be extremely collaborative and really do go the extra mile to help LINPAC achieve its IT objectives."
