--- title: EPLAN UK Blog | Simon Jackson description: Simon joined EPLAN in the summer of 2016 as the Area Sales Manager for the North West region and hasn’t looked back. Originally a Production Engineer, Simon moved into sales in order to make a difference and become closer to the manufacturing industry in the UK. Previously responsible for selling PCB CAD software in both the UK and northern Europe, he now gets a real buzz from the reaction he gets when talking to prospects and customers about the efficiencies and improvements that EPLAN software and services can bring to such a wide variety of businesses. He believes the whole philosophy of “efficient engineering” and the EPLAN Experience is a message that so many should hear. --- [![Logo](https://cdn2.hubspot.net/hubfs/3337099/blog/images/Logo/Eplan.svg)](https://blog.eplan.co.uk?language=all) [![](https://blog.eplan.co.uk/hubfs/blog/images/Category/Trends-eplan-2021-black.svg) trends](https://blog.eplan.co.uk/tag/trends?language=all) [![](https://blog.eplan.co.uk/hubfs/blog/images/Category/Projects-eplan-2021-black.svg) projects](https://blog.eplan.co.uk/tag/projects?language=all) [![](https://blog.eplan.co.uk/hubfs/blog/images/Category/Software-eplan-2021-black.svg) software](https://blog.eplan.co.uk/tag/software?language=all) [![](https://blog.eplan.co.uk/hubfs/Designer.png) 18/08/26 What does a migration to Eplan involve? ***We have created a range of phased onboarding programmes to move teams onto Eplan with minimal disruption to live project delivery, allowing teams to build their capabilities while projects continue.
