ServicePower Becomes a ThingWorx Ready Partner

ServicePower Technologies Plc (AIM: SVR), a market leader in workforce management software, is pleased to announce that it has joined the ThingWorx partner program as a ThingWorx Ready™ partner. The PTC ThingWorx® platform is a leading rapid application development platform for the Internet of Things. ServicePower will use the ThingWorx Internet of Things (IoT) development platform to build applications that help its customers reduce costs, improve services and ultimately achieve competitive advantage.

ServicePower's service management platforms help businesses optimize field operations by connecting and deploying all vital components in the service value chain such as customers, dispatchers, field technicians, assets and parts. By developing new applications that connect machines using IoT and integrating them into ServicePower's workforce management, enterprise mobility, and analytics technology, ServicePower will enable its clients to optimize performance by uniting their workforces with assets in the field. Using sensors in assets in the field coupled with new applications developed by ServicePower on ThingWorx, our clients will be able to detect problems as they occur and, using ServicePower's workforce optimization solutions, mobilize their repair crews before there is a disruption to services.

ServicePower will offer the new IoT applications through the ThingWorx Marketplace, as well as directly through its global sales channels, providing new market opportunities for the ServicePower mobile workforce management software platform within the ThingWorx ecosystem.

Joining the ThingWorx ecosystem underlines the growing momentum of ServicePower's partner strategy and its aim to use scalable and innovative technology. Specifically it builds upon other recent IoT partnerships with Bosch Software Innovations and Concirrus.

Marne Martin, CEO of ServicePower commented. "ServicePower already supplies the most innovative and complete service management platform on the market. We work with companies that operate assets in the field such as utility and cable providers, facilities managers and contractors; they can all now benefit from a step-change in technology that will deliver unprecedented levels of asset visibility. Valuable asset information extracted using ThingWorx can be fed into ServicePower's existing service management platform so that our clients can deploy resources faster and where they are most needed. This technology will enable them to transform their operations and maybe even entire sectors."
