Interestingly, recent research by wRatings points to several reasons for Adesso’s continued success despite a challenging economy. Findings from wRatings, Most Competitive Retail & Consumer Goods Study, released April 8, 2009, show a 50% turnover in the Top 20 companies during mid-2008 compared to those that remain in the Top 20 during Q1-2009. The report concludes that the companies remaining in the Top 20 today are on track to emerge from the recession with greater customer and economic strength than their rivals. The report also states that critical elements to success include access to real-time data and the ability to transform business faster than ever before.* Adesso’s 150+ clients see their ability to respond quickly to market demands improve as they employ a flexible and responsive TPM system.
