LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - September 29, 2009) - Adexa, Inc., the global provider of Supply
Chain Planning and Performance Management software, has co-sponsored
Aberdeen Research's premier benchmark report, entitled "Sales and
Operations Planning: Integrate with Finance and Improve Revenue," for a
second consecutive year. The study highlights the result of 214 companies
participating in a survey on Sales and Operations planning-related
initiatives. The goal of this study is to compare and contrast the view
points of supply chain and finance organizations relating to S&OP
processes, and puts a special emphasis on expressing the S&OP plan in terms
of financial impact.
In today's volatile markets it's very difficult for companies to plan for
Demand, Supply, and Inventories, while meeting their financial objectives.
"This confirms Adexa's direction for the past two years toward
Profit-Driven S&OP© solutions, which facilitate for a tight integration
between supply chain planning and financial visibility -- because every
decision affects the bottom line," stated Kameron Hadavi, VP of Global
Marketing & Alliances, at Adexa.
"Best-in-Class companies are focusing more towards a holistic
consideration of supply, demand and financial plans whereas the vast
majority of the market place is still grappling with the traditional supply
chain issues such as managing demand forecasts within the S&OP plan," said
Nari Viswanathan, VP/Principal Analyst, SCM Practice, at Aberdeen Research.
"Without financial optimization, scenarios cannot be compared on an
apples-to-apples basis. Adexa's S&OP solutions have shown one of the
highest levels of market readiness in this area."
