jkodman — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 15:48:50 +0000

Former Speaker of the House and General Chairman of American Solutions Newt Gingrich, announced today the appointment of David Scott C.E.O. of Manuvis Corp to the Advisory Board of his Jobs and Prosperity Task Force.
Washington, D.C., October 22, 2010/Newswire – The Jobs and Prosperity Task Force is comprised of the most successful and accomplished business leaders and entrepreneurs in America. The Task Force will focus on Jobs Here, Jobs Now, Jobs First.
“We’ve given Washington a chance. It has failed miserably and proven to be so inept at job creation that our unemployment, as President Obama himself said, ‘blew past’ his own administration’s projection of 8%. Now it’s time for people who know how to create jobs and prosperity, know what it means to stick to a budget and make payroll – the business leaders of this country – to come together and clean up this mess,” Gingrich said.
“We’re thrilled to have Mr. Scott on board as we begin the work to get this economy back on track.” Mr. Gingrich said.
“Manuvis has always been passionate about leading the way for many companies to become stronger and more competitive, therefore providing opportunities for growth and economic development in the communities they serve.” Mr. Scott said.
As an Advisory Board Member, Mr. Scott will be invited to Washington for strategy sessions and events where he will discuss ways of turning American economic problems around with tried, true and battle-tested solutions that have been used in successful businesses.
Mr. Scott’s company, Manuvis, is an innovative leader in delivering solutions and specialized business skills that solve operational challenges and help boost the profitability of companies that compete in today’s global economy.
“I am very excited to serve on this task force. I am looking forward to sharing our experiences with making companies more competitive and hopefully learning from others as well. This experience will give us additional tools and insights that may help our customers.” Mr. Scott said

This functionality adds the capabilities to monitor energy usage on an individual machine basis as well as capturing overall energy usage.

“With the Lean movement continuing, people are looking to move past the low hanging fruit and tap into more potential cost savings. With the increase and volatility of energy costs we are seeing a great opportunity for manufacturers to take another step forward in operating efficiency,”said David Scott, CEO of Manuvis. One FactoryMRI user recently discovered the value of the functionality when preparing for an EPA audit. When the maintenance manager was informed the audit he asked the Manuvis team if they could help. Instead of using the traditional method of compiling manual data, a couple of mouse clicks provided an accurate report.

When utilized for decision-making, the outcomes are increased performance and lower operating costs. The software allows manufacturers in complex, discrete, and process industries to realize key benefits including: reduced total cost of ownership, significant improvements in understanding sources of process variation, and the ability to display a broader assortment of enterprise-wide information on one output screen.
