LogicTools to Exhibit at SAPPHIRE 2005 in Boston
Complementary and integrated supply chain planning solutions enable strategic decision making for SAP Customers

Chicago - May 3rd 2005: LogicTools, a leading developer of supply chain planning solutions announced that it will exhibit in the SAP Supply Chain Management Village at SAPPHIRE 2005, on May 17-19 in Boston. You can visit us at pod SCM07DP.

LogicTools is a long-time SAP Software Partner through its certified integrations of LogicNet Plus®, the leading network design solution, which is offered as an extension to the mySAPTM Supply Chain Management (mySAP SCM) solution and Inventory AnalystTM, a multi-echelon inventory optimization solution which is Powered by SAP NetWeaver.

"Sapphire is an opportunity to showcase how LogicTools’ solutions are complementary to SAP and other ERP systems. The recent Powered by SAP NetWeaver certification earned by Inventory AnalystTM makes it even easier for SAP customers to make strategic decisions based on the entire supply chain." said David Simchi-Levi, CEO of LogicTools.

Strategic supply chain planning is an area where the ability to easily model the supply chain and quickly run many different what-if scenarios requires a different type of interface and optimization capabilities than those required for operational systems. In particular for SAP APO users, AMR Research noted in its March 25th 2005 Alert of Supply Chain Management, that current SAP APO customers "... are actively seeking bolt-on applications from best-of-breed providers to drive improvements in inventory, forecast visibility and accuracy, network design, and master data management." This underscores the importance of the enhanced functionality that complementary planning tools can offer.

LogicTools provides this complementary capability through its suite of planning solutions that includes LogicNet Plus® for network design, Inventory AnalystTM for strategic inventory positioning and optimization and LogicChain® for production sourcing. LogicTools’ integrated planning suite provides solutions that optimize the supply chain by considering the entire network, taking into account production, warehousing, transportation and inventory costs, as well as service level requirements.
