October 14, 2008 Form Automation Solutions targets Midwest with new distribution partner, Industrial Network SystemsINS expects strong demand for AuditMatic® softwareDALLAS — Industrial Network Systems (INS), a leading value-added reseller of GE Fanuc and other factory automation solutions, has been selected as a distributor for AuditMatic® mobile worker data collection software by Form Automation Solutions, Inc. (FAS). INS has a significant market presence in the Midwest and will be the primary sales outlet to the industrial marketplace for FAS in the 11-state region, said Stephen Woram, founder and president of FAS. AuditMatic replaces the traditional clipboard-and-pen data-gathering tools used by production workers who are not tethered to a computer at a fixed location. AuditMatic software runs on hand-held computers and smart phones based on the Windows Mobile operating system. It is designed to provide mobile workers with contextual decision support and new data collection options such as photo and location capture while they perform their data collection rounds. Data collected using AuditMatic can be shared with HMI, DCS and other back-end systems to eliminate the costs, errors, and delays inherent in transcription of paper forms. First introduced in 2006, AuditMatic has been adopted by a wide range of manufacturing companies. “We are pleased to announce our alliance with FAS and believe that its AuditMatic data collection and reporting software will prove to be a key differentiator for our marketplace,” said Harry McCollum, INS President. “We already have had interest from companies in a variety of Industries including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, utilities, discrete manufacturing and municipalities. “AuditMatic software along with INS's application expertise will allow us to provide our customers with a complete range of plant floor data collection systems both automated and manual. AuditMatic will also provide an additional means to get hard-to-collect manual data into our customers SAP ERP systems efficiently without doubling up on data entry. This saves money on labor and improves the accuracy and timeliness of the data being collected.” “We are proud to be associated with INS,” Woram said. “With a solid sales team and knowledgeable technical support engineers, INS is exactly the type of organization best suited to offer the AuditMatic product. We look forward to a great relationship.” FAS will showcase the latest version of AuditMatic at the ISA EXPO 2008 in Houston, Oct. 14-16, 2008 (Booth 2953).
