Nuvar Manufacturing goes live with 2THINK collaboration™

HOLLAND, Mich. (May 14, 2007) - 2THINK, LLC of Holland, Michigan working with its client, Nuvar Manufacturing, also of Holland, implemented its new 2THINK collaboration™ web service (SaaS).

"We started receiving value from 2THINK collaboration™ even before we rolled it out to our supply base as it provided us with an integrated and accurate snapshot of what was happening -- and what wasn't. This enabled us to initiate corrective action before customer orders were affected. The Nuvar materials team found the application extremely easy to deploy and supplier acceptance was unanimously positive. We're looking forward to long term improvement using 2THINK collaboration™ as the backbone tool for a globally lean supply chain. " said Mark Kuyper, President of Nuvar Manufacturing.

The 2THINK collaboration™ web service is available to clients and suppliers for a low monthly fee and can be implemented in as little as three weeks ensuring an extremely short payback period and low risk of investment.
