RESULTS: IT'S ALL THAT MATTERS
True
visibility goes beyond knowing what’s happening right now in your supply chain.
It gives you the ability to be more predictive and proactive to understand if
there’s an impending problem and how to solve problems before they occur,
resulting in less impact on your business and improved cash flow.
"Mitigating the supply
chain risk is very important. But even before that, understanding the risk,
quantifying where the break points are and what is needed in case of the risk
materializing are very, very important."
Noha
Tohamy, Principal Analyst with Forrester Research

Forecast
and Demand Management |
“Forecasting demand is as much an art as a science, and is never easy in the
best of circumstances,” said Suzette Braun
Senior Manager, Demand Planning Development, The Gillette Company. “We were
looking for a tool that would help us accelerate our new product
introduction and allow us to quickly get to the vital forecasting
information to track, analyze and adjust our numbers. Pelyco’s webPUBLISH
visibility tool has given us what we need and is now an integral part of our
Exception Management process. The Pelyco team has been outstanding to
work with and have gone above and beyond our expectations.”

EMS solutions for competitive
advantage |
“Our Customer Forecast Acceptance process (CFA) was designed to provide
Solectron a competitive advantage in managing and assessing the impact of
change from our OEM customers. Solectron intends to use the CFA process
to continue to drive cost out of the business while improving visibility and
responsiveness to our customers. The ROI and time to value of this
initiative will further differentiate Solectron’s leadership position.
Pelyco has been a very responsive partner, possessing strong supply chain
domain expertise and a proven track record.” said Rick Palm, Americas
Planning Process Owner, Solectron Corporation

Patented supply chain solution

"Working with Pelyco on the patented AtS (Available-to-Sell) tool has
been a pleasure. Their responsiveness and support have been instrumental in
the success of our project."
"The working relationship with
Pelyco has really been very productive and serves as an example of how IT
development can and should work.... Our more recent work resulted in a
second patent filing, and (of course more importantly) a working system
that offers decision support to enable business improvements."
