COPENHAGEN, Denmark — June 27, 2024 — Configit, global leader in Configuration Lifecycle Management (CLM), announced today that it has been selected by its first Canadian customer, Premier Tech, to improve the efficiency of packaged product manufacturing facilities.

Premier Tech is a global company with 5,200 team members across 28 countries. With its world headquarters in Rivière-du-Loup, Québec, Canada, the company operates in different industries through five business groups. One of them, Premier Tech Systems and Automation, will greatly benefit from the Configit Ace SaaS environment. Global leader in the manufacturing of packaging and bulk handling equipment, Premier Tech Systems and Automation harnesses the great potential of robotics and automation to help manufacturers optimize their operations, while ensuring the safety of their teams.

With the support of the Configit Ace SaaS environment, Premier Tech Systems and Automation sought a solution that would help define standards and reduce the complexity of configurations using a flexible and customer-friendly approach. Configit stood out for its independent solution with seamless integration into the existing landscape, Salesforce CPQ. Configit also demonstrated a strong record of customer support and the capability to manage complex configurations. With the support of the Configit Ace SaaS environment, Premier Tech Systems and Automation will be able to enhance business model flexibility to meet market demands, increase sales through cost reductions and improved speed, and decrease rework by accurately interpreting customer needs — therefore creating more value for its clients. Aligning perfectly with the group's vision for the coming years, this partnership will enable the integration of AI and decision support solutions, improving the speed and quality of implementation.
