LogicTools' Inventory Analyst is Certified for SAP NetWeaver
|
Chicago - December 16th 2004: LogicTools Inventory Analyst 4.0™ has been certified for the SAP NetWeaver™ integration and application platform and is now "Certified for SAP NetWeaver." This will enable access to Inventory Analyst™ through SAP Enterprise Portal. LogicTools is already an SAP software partner through its certified integration of LogicNet Plus®, the leading network design solution, which is offered as an extension to the mySAP™ Supply Chain Management (mySAP SCM) solution.
Inventory Analyst enables companies to make strategic inventory decisions based on the entire supply chain. This technology has produced large savings for companies by optimally locating and sizing inventory as well as determining effective push/pull supply chain strategies. For this purpose, LogicTools' Inventory Analyst uses state of the art optimization algorithms that take into account uncertainties in supply and demand as well variability in processing and distribution times.
“The ability to seamlessly integrate Inventory Analyst with SAP Enterprise Portal allows SAP users to deploy the software from a familiar environment. We believe the NetWeaver platform provides excellent integration capabilities to SAP components for complementary solutions such as ours.” said Edith Simchi-Levi, VP Operations at LogicTools.
Inventory Analyst is part of the LogicTools integrated suite of planning solutions that also includes LogicNet Plus for network design 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 or fill-rate requirements.
Many companies who standardize on the SAP platform either for ERP or for both ERP and SCM have complemented their capabilities for strategic supply chain planning with LogicTools' solutions. The high performance, ease of use and excellent service provided by LogicTools enable these companies to make important strategic decisions using the right solutions. Examples of such companies include Colgate-Palmolive, SC Johnson, Timken and Weyerhaeuser. In many cases, companies used LogicTools technology to identify the impact of off shoring on their global supply chain.
