(firmenpresse) - PLEASANTON, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 06/21/12 -- , the leader in solutions, is helping Contech Engineered Solutions to deliver better business agility in a volatile market. In a released today, Steelwedge shared details on how its 100-year-old customer is entering new markets, growing market share and more nimbly maneuvering with the help of integrated business planning.
Headquartered in Ohio, Contech has been a leading provider of site solution products and services for the civil engineering industry since its founding in 1900. Over its history, Contech has weathered economic shifts and has grown through smart acquisitions and industry consolidation. It chose the Steelwedge solution to help make its supply chain efficiently lean and remarkably agile to cope with today's shifting spending at federal, state and local government levels where most of its business is based.

"There's no doubt we've got payback. And it isn't just about discrete financial metrics,"
says Randy Ramsey, Contech Director of Supply Chain. "There are numerous opportunities, like green energy, we wouldn't have been able to go after; we wouldn't have been fast enough, integrated enough, agile enough to capitalize on. Today we power more strategic initiatives with significant 'what if' scenario modeling to determine the best outcome and grab more market share from our competitors."
