Infineum Selects Logility to Optimise Supply Chain Performance
Logility (News - Alert), Inc., a leading provider of collaborative supply chain
optimisation and advanced retail planning solutions, today announced
Infineum International Limited, a world leader in the formulation,
manufacture and marketing of additives for the fuel and lubricant
industry, has selected Logility Voyager Solutions™, an innovative
cloud-based business planning platform, to optimise the inventory and
shipment aspects of its supply chain to increase operational
efficiencies and improve customer service.
"Our aim is to improve our inventory targeting system and reduce working
capital while enhancing our service levels," said Ursula Thakkar, Head,
Global Supply Chain and Planning, Infineum. "The multi-echelon inventory
optimisation capabilities in Logility Voyager Solutions will allow us to
quickly identify the reasons for our inventory challenges and reduce the
manual intervention required by inventory planners. Logility will help
us optimise our supply chain and ensure our team is able to focus on
strategic growth initiatives for the company."
In addition, Infineum required that the new supply
chain optimisation solution integrate quickly and simply with its
existing planning system. To ensure customer and operational output
remains synchronised, Infineum is leveraging Logility Voyager AdapLink,
a template-based integration platform that will help Infineum get the
system up and running with minimal effort from its internal development
resources.
"Infineum operates in a complex, capital-intensive supply chain," said
Allan Dow, president, Logility. "Logility Voyager Solutions will help
remove working capital from the supply chain by intelligently placing
inventory across the network and allowing Infineum the flexibility to
manage through demand uncertainty and supply volatility. We look forward
to a close partnership as we help Infineum optimise its supply chain."
