World Information Systems, Inc. is the international leader in bar code technology for the maintenance industry. World had its beginning in vehicle maintenance and now has expanded to handle the maintenance of whatever its users choose to maintain: buildings, equipment, refrigeration units, water coolers, elevators, fire extinguishers, containers, cranes, chassis, generator sets, planes, trains, automobiles - whatever needs maintenance.

While other companies limit their use of bar code technology to applications such as inventory, purchasing, and other non-labor business applications, World uses this technology for all data collection including: personnel time tracking, work quality and productivity management functions. Through communications networks, World's ShopFax software decentralizes data collection to the location where work is done. With pocket pc's, World's ShopFax software maximizes accuracy and minimizes the cost of data collection. The scanners increase the productivity of mechanics by allowing them to enter data without writing it down or going to a computer terminal. This method greatly reduces errors.

Another uniqueness of World is that its staff of consultants, trainers, and support people are maintenance professionals who have done maintenance work, managed maintenance organizations, and understand the work being done by the users of the system. Combined with an outstanding staff of information technology professionals, World is the industry's most competent organization.

Our competence is further strengthened by our clients. Many of the improvements in our system come from them; the best sources in the world. Our client conference is a forum for education, training and an exchange of ideas not only for improvement of the system, but also to allow our clients to exchange ideas among themselves.

World Information Systems, Inc. was founded in 1993 through the acquisition of J.P. Systems, which was founded in 1984. Today, World is an outstanding company with a new generation of comprehensive maintenance systems.
