With a new focus on tracking & tracing software in the Meat and Food Industry, ATS will become the solution provider of choice for manufacturers within and outside of the Benelux.Modulo BV’s owners Tonie Huizer, Patrick Krootjes and Dirk Bruinsma were looking for a partner to further expand their Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) solutions. With a focus on the meat and food industry they realised that to make further progress in an increasingly international market they needed to find a strong partner. Once we got talking it quickly became obvious to them that the ATS DNA is rooted in MES and Automation with that other critical factor; a global vision.
The Modulo team is based in the South West of the Netherlands in Stellendam with another office in Sliedrecht. The team of 11 highly skilled people with industry, application and .NET knowledge will transfer to ATS Applied Tech Systems BV on 1 January 2017. The plan is a win win situation for all involved as we cement our position in the meat and food industry, increase our ability to deliver MES globally with the new knowledge added and offer the Modulo team a bright future. Our new family members at ATS Teconomy will also have a new group of customers on their doorstep to offer Application Packaging and Virtualisation services too !
Our Managing Director for The Netherlands, Rob Valent, is responsible for the new team. Naturally success does not come from his actions alone and I encourage all of you to support and welcome our new team members.
ATS and Modulo managers: Gerda Briggeman, Diligence, Dirk Bruinsma (Modulo), Rob Valent (ATS), Tonie Huizer (Modulo), Patrick Krootjes (Modulo), Jan Hogenkamp (ATS)
