Outperform has been listed in the challengers quadrant, which we feel confirms our strong execution capabilities, domain expertise and commitment to the customers we serve. This Magic Quadrant examines vendors that provide S&OP systems of differentiation. Supply chain and IT leaders can use this report when evaluating and selecting such a system to help enable Stage 4 S&OP maturity. To be included in the Magic Quadrant process, vendors must meet certain criteria such as product functionality and configurability, global coverage and revenue. For more information, Gartner subscribers can read the report here.
Last year, Yogi Tea approached Outperform for a Sales and Operations Planning solution. The company which has for over 40 years stood for delicious herb and spice teas in dry and ready to drink products was an immediate match. The challenge is in production of intermediates being in one place, filling and packaging in another and stock holding and distribution from several other locations. To plan this efficiently and effectively a more holistic view of the supply chain was needed. Following a three-month trial period Yogi Tea moved forward to implement the solution for the Ready to Drinks division with plans for further roll out to other business units. Outperform is integrated with Exact Globe Next, Yogi Tea’s ERP system.
