We researched our options for planning before concluding that FastReact was the best tool on the market by far. Most importantly, it is not just a planning and scheduling tool, but also a business wide tool for improving visibility and coordination. The linked planning boards for knitting and dyeing mean that each department knows exactly what was required of them and can work together towards the common goal of maximising ‘On Time Delivery Performance (OTDP%).
The system is fully networked throughout the business and a large on-line LCD screen in the Dye-house helps staff to clearly identify their work priorities based on the latest plan. In the near future, we aim to open up FastReact visibility to our supply chain - many of our customers already use FastReact, and we are very excited by the opportunity this presents for much closer collaboration

We are aiming for a transparent critical path and total visibility of all orders in real time across our complicated supply chain. We have been working with FR since 2005 and I am convinced that they are the right partners to move forward with in order to achieve our supply chain goals

FastReact was surprisingly easy to install, and we have been very impressed with robustness and functionality provided by the software. Given the FastReact pedigree we expected a good planning system, but the flexibility and control provided by the FastReact Critical Path system was an unexpected bonus.

Dewhirst Group (UK)
Our internal supply chain has reduced from 7 weeks to 4 weeks and will reduce by a further week in the near future. We could not have achieved this reduction without FastReact. The savings to date include 1.5M fewer garments in work in progress alone. FastReact paid for itself in a few months and will continue to add considerable value to the business.
Oscar González
Director of Operations
Zentrix (Mexico)
Implementing FastReact has allowed us MUCH greater visibility of our overseas manufacturing, working collaboratively with our UK operation. Improved control through FR allowed a rapid reduction in excess costs, including a significant reduction in air freight, yet also allowed increased flexibility. We could not have achieved our recent strong business growth and ‘still maintained control’ without FR.
