InVision Software launches US subsidiary

Plans to market successful workforce management solution to North America

InVision Software, Europe’s leading provider of workforce management software, has announced it has launched a US subsidiary in Chicago, IL.  The new headquarters of InVision Software, Inc. will service both the US and Canadian territories, with further bases planned for the West and South to be nearer to those specific markets.

Peter Bollenbeck, CEO of the InVision Software Group, says: “We are confident that the North American market, across all industries, holds great potential for our company. Obviously, it is a very large territory, and it is still the place where global technology trends are set. With the strong foothold we have in Europe, demonstrated by currently 480 installations, InVision has what it takes to meet the North American challenge.”

The InVision Enterprise WFM is a web-based solution enabling businesses to forecast, schedule and control their workforce in real time to match requirements with capacity, thus reliably preventing over- and understaffing. The software has been proven to reduce staff-related costs by up to 25 per cent. At the same time, the InVision Enterprise WFM increases workforce productivity and reduces staff fluctuation, all the while significantly reducing time spent on workforce management processes.

Formed in 1995, InVision Software has established itself with a dominant market share in Germany. The company currently boasts 12 international subsidiaries, a number which illustrates the tremendous pace at which the company has expanded since its early days. Of all providers of company-wide workforce management solutions that cater to more than one industry, it is the only one with such a large and diverse market presence. The customer base currently includes global brands such as ABN AMRO, Vodafone, Deutsche Telekom and IKEA.

“In our tenth year, the opening of the US office demonstrates how far we have come. This is a real milestone in our company’s development and with an impressive client list, a strong base in Europe and 110 employees, InVision continues to go from strength to strength,” Peter Bollenbeck says. “All in all, our tools are perfectly geared towards the North American market thanks to their technological power and functional versatility. The solutions can easily be configured to suit any kind of business environment with its specific policies,” Peter Bollenbeck says. “After all, they were originally designed for markets where workforce situations, for example working hours, are highly regulated. Our strength in meeting these challenges has been rewarded with our tremendous success e.g. in France, Germany and Italy.“

“Another critical advantage of our system is its degree of localization. While logging in, any user can choose between 6 different languages, including English, Spanish and German, and more are yet to come. This is more proof of our commitment and competence when it comes to catering to different territories and adapting our product to their unique conditions,” Bollenbeck adds.

As a workforce management solution, the InVision software is easily integrated into existing IT systems and can incorporate any external requirement.  It has been successfully implemented across businesses of varying sizes, ranging from 25 to tens of thousands of employees.
