A Limeric technology firm has announced that it will double
its workforce to 130 employees over the next three years.
Environment Minister Phil Hogan officially launched a new
research and development centre at AMCS
in Fanningstown, Crecora, last week, which will allow the
company to expand its current workforce of 65 in the areas
of software development, software support, project management
and sales.
Established in 2003, AMCS implements information solutions
for the recycling and environmental management industry. It
also provides measurement and billing solutions for more than
one million households in Ireland through its on-vehicle 'pay
by weight' technology.
It is a major player in the supply of IT and management,
tracking solutions for the recycling and environmental management
sectors.
In the last two years, with the highly valued support of
Enterprise Ireland, we have significantly expanded our presence
in continental Europe, the UK and the USA, creating over 30
jobs, said chief executive Jimmy Martin.
We believe our unique technology and expertise puts us in
an ideal position to become an industry leader - not only
in our existing markets, but across Europe and the USA.
The official opening of the new facility in Limerick comes
after the company recently acquired UK-based software services
provider, the Solution Works.
The new roles to be created in Limerick will be available
in areas such as software development, software support, project
management and sales.
Mr Martin said that the company had invested about 4 million
in research, development and international expansion over
the past two years.
