New supply chain solution innovations deliver deeper insights that enable organizations to cut costs, improve return on investments and maximize the efficiency of operations

As it continues to build the supply chain for the future, Blue Yonder today strengthened its enterprise supply chain platform and industry-specific offerings by launching new planning and execution capabilities that empower supply chain leaders to meet critical business objectives. These product innovations are aimed at further supporting organizations by serving actionable insights from their supply chain data that drive greater cost efficiency and a faster return on investment.

The Blue Yonder Platform serves as the single source of truth for all supply chain needs, from planning to execution, reducing decision making latency, as well as minimizing the complexity of enabling cross-functional collaboration. With these new product innovations, organizations can better leverage data to forecast demand and supply requirements, improve inventory utilization, and quickly resolve inefficiencies in warehouse and yard operations that could delay deliveries.

“These new innovations directly support our customers as they digitally transform their supply chains to take advantage of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and the latest advancements in robotics,” said Duncan Angove, CEO, Blue Yonder. “Our Blue Yonder Platform connects the breadth of our solutions – across planning, execution, labor, e-commerce, and delivery. By supporting simple extensibility for our customers to extend and configure their solutions as needed, the Blue Yonder Platform allows them to increase speed and agility, make data-driven decisions, and pivot around disruptions. The platform offers composability, allowing customers to add on new functionalities as they need them with a faster time to value.”
