MANUGISTICS

Manugistics provides supply chain management, and demand and revenue management software products and services. JDA Software Group acquired Manugistics in July 2006 to expand its end-to-end supply chain offering to the market. Manugistics' demand and supply chain solutions enabled JDA to grow its market with solutions for manufacturing, demand and replenishment, price and promotions optimization, and transportation and logistics. This acquisition enabled JDA to change the traditional way of... viewing how to supply goods to the consumer. The acquisition of Manugistics positioned JDA to provide retail, manufacturing, wholesale distribution and service industries customers with a new solution offering that spanned the supply chain from raw materials to the end consumer. Prior to the acquisition, Manugistics had offices in over 30 countries and had a heritage as one of the “founders” of supply chain management. The company was a provider of demand, supply and transportation planning solutions, with several very large-scale customers, particularly in the food production industry.More
