Meet with Blue Yonder
Event
Within 10 months, the integrated forecasting and replenishment solutions were live, thanks to rapid cloud deployment with Blue Yonder cloud services. By launching in a cloud environment not only did the company speed up implementation, it minimized risks and financial investment.
“With Blue Yonder cloud cervices, we knew exactly what we were buying. There was a fixed price, and it was very easy to do. We trusted Blue Yonder Cloud Services because they are the experts. They’ve got a number of customers they’re rolling out. They are more proficient. That’s what they do, all day, every day, and that was an advantage to us.” - Solutions Manager for Supply Chain, Super Retail Group.
Solution Benefits
One benefit of working with Blue Yonder cloud services was the ability to do a pilot. From a cost point of view, the cloud enabled Super Retail Group to easily get the infrastructure in place, conduct a pilot and see results. The success of the pilot was enabled Super Retail Group to create a business case for moving forward with a single demand and fulfillment system, operating in a cloud environment. Not only has the cloud services model proven to be scalable across BCF’s enormous product diversity, it has also proven very reliable. The uptime has been near 100 percent, a critical factor given the large amount of data the retailer needs to move into Blue Yonder’s applications.
Continuous results
“We’ve made a significant shift in our organizational thinking and culture to become more customercentric. That’s a key outcome that we’re looking for, and Blue Yonder enables us to have that capability. In time, we’ll be getting the right feeds and visibility from the customer groups and the loyalty programs, and that data will feed into our demand planning capability.” -Programme Manager of Supply Chain and Inventory Management, Super Retail Group
