P3 Medical Selects Rootstock for Available to Promise (ATP) Capabilities

Medical Device Company Chooses Rootstock to Improve Customers Service Levels and Operational Efficiencies

SAN RAMON, Calif, May 27, 2010 –Rootstock Software®, leading Software as a Service (SaaS) manufacturing solution provider to the mid-market, announced today that P3 Medical, a privately owned company specializing in high quality and cost effective medical devices, has selected Rootstock manufacturing software.  P3 Medical plans to implement the Rootstock solution over the next four months across two plants in the United Kingdom.

As a fast growing company, P3 Medical is finding it more and more difficult to respond quickly to customer order inquiries with up to date product availability information.  An advanced manufacturing planning solution with Available to Promise (ATP) capabilities is needed to efficiently match changing customer demand to manufacturing production.  Improved customer responsiveness and operational efficiencies is critical to support P3 Medical’s future growth.

P3 Medical chose Rootstock’s industry leading manufacturing solution that provides real time visibility throughout the supply chain.  Rootstock’s manufacturing expertise will enable P3 to quickly respond to any customer inquiries and modify production schedules to react to changes in customer demand while maintaining low levels of inventory.  P3 Medical also needed a solution that could support its multiple manufacturing sites leveraging their current SaaS architecture.  Rootstock delivers a robust manufacturing solution built on a proven SaaS platform that provides the multi-plant capabilities to support P3 Medical future growth.

“We needed a comprehensive manufacturing solution to be more responsive to our customers,” said Simon Talbot, Managing Director of P3 Medical.  “Rootstock’s robust manufacturing solution will enable P3 Medical to build the right products at the right time to meet our customer’s ever-changing needs.”

“Mid-size manufacturers like P3 Medical find it can be difficult to maintain high customer service levels during periods of tremendous growth”, said Patrick Garrehy, CEO and Founder of Rootstock Software®.  “Rootstock delivers the solution mid-size manufacturers need to gain critical visibility throughout the supply chain with lower overall operating costs.”

Rootstock Software® was launched in 2008 in response to the growing need for a SaaS solution for mid-market manufacturers to cut costs, improve processes, and drive revenues.  Rootstock partners with NetSuite to deliver these critical manufacturing capabilities to the underserved mid-market with minimal IT infrastructure investment.
