Williamsville, New York (February xxx, 2007) - CWorks
Systems Berhad, a company that specializes in CMMS
software, today announced that it ranked Number
107 on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 Asia Pacific
2006, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology
companies in the Asia Pacific. Rankings are based
on percentage revenue growth over three years. CWorks
grew 1263 % during this period.
CWorks’ CEO Abdul Rani Achmed Abdullah credits its
basic software product CWorks FREE with the company’s
phenomenal growth over the past three years. CWorks
offers this product CWorks FREE – a true freeware
- so that facility managers can easily download
and test this computerized maintenance management
system (CMMS) software against their facility’s
needs without incurring any costs. As the product
is distributed in source, it allows the user to
review the existing source code and customize it
to meet their CMMS needs.
CWorks’ CEO Abdul Rani said, “Our remarkable growth
rate can be attributed to our well designed product
offerings such as CWorks FREE. Coupled with the
designed simplicity of our products and our superb
service delivery, our implementation success rate
has greatly increased. Making the Deloitte Technology
Fast 500 Asia Pacific ranking is a testament to
our commitment to technology and to producing exceptional
products.”
“Attracting enough customers to attain such fast
growth over three years makes a strong statement
about the quality of a company’s product and its
leadership, “said Ian Thatcher, partner in charge
of Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500 Asia pacific program.
“CWorks has shown the right stuff for growth.”
In addition to ranking on Deloitte’s Technology
Fast 500, CWorks recently won the MSC-APICTA Asia
