BURLINGTON, Massachusetts, November 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
ClickSoftware Technologies Ltd. (NasdaqSC: CKSW), the leading
provider of workforce and service optimization solutions, today
announced a licensing and service agreement with Antwerp Waterworks
(AWW), an important water utility in Antwerp (Belgium). AWW is in
the process of implementing a new ERP package. The water utility
has turned to ClickSoftware's ClickSchedule solution both for its
power and flexibility to fully integrate with the new ERP package,
as well as its ability to provide the planning and appointment
booking functionality the company needs. In addition to integration
with the new ERP package, critical to the success of the project is
quick turnaround time in the implementation stage. ClickSoftware's
ClickSchedule solution is a good fit for this need, as well. "We
are committed to improving planning, and our investment in
ClickSoftware is one of several important steps we are taking to
move the company forward," said Veerle De Witte, Logistics Director
at AWW. "ClickSoftware is the most complete product we considered
in our review process. It is a package that seems to perfectly meet
the current needs of AWW and still leaves sufficient options to
further optimize our planning towards the future," he added. "We
are very pleased to add AWW as a client," said Dr Moshe BenBassat,
founder and CEO of ClickSoftware. "AWW is another example of a
relatively small utility company that elected to implement the
ClickSchedule product. The ClickSchedule solution is inherently
flexible so that it is able to operate as an entry level option for
companies who do not need the advanced features of our full
scheduling product, or who prefer to start with relatively basic
functionality so as to limit the scope of the business
transformation," BenBassat added. About ClickSoftware ClickSoftware
