The Start Team will act as Certified Training Partner, under the supervision of TXT, and will initially provide training for demand based TXT’s solutions and particularly Consumer Driven Planning (CDP) and Demand Planner, both developed by TXT and object of a global agreement with Microsoft. The Training Center will support resellers, the Microsoft Partners community and customers in North America.

The Start Team is a strategic partner for us and we expect them to be a main driver for our fast growth in the North American market. I am impressed with The Start Team approach and their training methodologies: they are extremely professional and highly effective”.

The Training Center in North America is part of a global strategy of expansion and other Training Centers in North Europe and Asia will be opening soon.”
