Distribution Tech slashing staff numbers

Tracey Scott
Distribution Technology is cutting its workforce by over a third after the completion of its new Dynamic point-of-sale system.

The IFA software firm is cutting staff numbers from 66 to 40, now that work on its DPOS product is complete.

A spokeswoman says: "At the beginning of next month we will have successfully completed a major new release and implementation of our DPOS product. This has been a two-year, multi-million-pound development programme. After the launch, we will no longer need to retain the team at current levels. We will be retaining a core team of around 40 people.

"Our model will be to focus on delivering and developing our existing products. We have invested significant sums over the last 12 months to ensure these are quick to deploy rather than requiring large implementation programmes each and every time, hence the need for fewer people."
