Premier Parts Planner Goes Beyond Software; Offers Broadest Footprint, A Variable Cost Model And Leading Customer Service
Austin, TX- January 26, 2005 Baxter Planning Systems, Inc. (www.bybaxter.com),
the premier provider of aftermarket parts planning solutions, today announced that the company’s technology platform, Prophet by Baxter,
On-Demand System Service and On-Demand Planning provides the most comprehensive solution on the market delivered via an attractive variable cost structure -
and Baxter guarantees the results through its unique gain-sharing model.
“The experience of the Baxter team and the breadth of the solution offering were key differentiators causing Agilent to standardize on the Prophet platform,” said Craig Fix,
Global Supply Chain Manager for Automated Test for Agilent Technologies. “When the time came to make a decision on an outsourced service parts planning solution, Baxter’s
comprehensive solution met all our near-term and long-term requirements. We look forward to a long and rewarding relationship with the Baxter team.”
Baxter’s client partnerships are structured to increase revenue and deliver immediate ROI. However, the company was not satisfied with simply eliminating the traditionally large,
one-time fees associated with enterprise software solutions. Baxter also guarantees quarter-to-quarter results and incremental and ongoing lower operating costs while directly
sharing the risks with its partners.
“Particularly in industries where service is a critical differentiator, companies are optimizing and automating service parts management to deliver immediate
value to service delivery capabilities,” said Mark Vigoroso, vice president of Post-Sales Service Research at the Aberdeen Group. “As leading service organizations
are beginning to realize, optimized service delivery will dramatically impact overall company profitability and performance
“The days of simply providing client-hosted software solutions are dead and gone,” said Greg Baxter, chief executive officer for Baxter Planning Systems.
“In addition to creating even more profitable models for our clients and building on our leadership position with our extensive management and service parts
industry experience, we will continue to grow our suite of products and services for the global market.
The Prophet by Baxter platform offers a matchless mix of software applications and parts planning services that maximizes service levels, minimizes inventory
and enables its clients to achieve the highest level of productivity and profitability.
