          QAD Software Corporation: Corporate Profile
Passion QAD is Manufacturing

Passion. There's nothing like it. It is a driving force for achievement — and fuels relentless dedication to be the best at what you do.

A passion for manufacturing drives QAD to deliver enterprise solutions expressly for manufacturers. In search of superior software for manufacturing, Pam Lopker, president and founder of QAD, was inspired to develop a better solution. That passion gave rise to MFG/PRO, the foundation of QAD's comprehensive suite of enterprise applications. And passion sparked more powerful QAD solutions that help dramatically improve operational performance.

Today, customers with more than 5,300 licensed sites worldwide rely on QAD to run global operations.

By pairing the latest thinking with leading technology, we deliver bottom-line results for our customers. QAD solutions help streamline the enterprise; improve quality and customer service; speed product time-to-market; and increase supply chain responsiveness across geographies, languages and currencies.

Our allegiance to manufacturers—now more than two decades strong—fuels our focus on specific industries. We strive to provide the greatest value to our customers in the automotive, consumer products, electronics, food & beverage, industrial and life sciences markets.

To better know and anticipate our customers' needs, we involve ourselves deeply in the industries we serve. We work side-by-side with our customers to solve tough challenges. Every plant visit, production hurdle, supply chain inefficiency or new industry demand simply strengthens our passion for what we do.

You can see it—and feel it—in everything we do. Each QAD employee has a passion for understanding the needs of manufacturers, exceeding expectations and delivering real value. And our greatest reward is seeing our customers succeed.
