(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Leading Electrical Manufacturer to Launch VMI Program in 2017
CINCINNATI, April 26, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Datalliance announced today that
the Canadian operations of Schneider Electric, the global specialist in energy
management and automation, has selected the Datalliance VMI platform as the
technology foundation for the company's Vendor Managed Inventory program to be
launched in early 2017. Schneider Electric also uses the Datalliance platform
to support the company's VMI program in the United States.
Adrian Thomas, Schneider Electric Vice President, Partner Business & Channel
said: "We are eager to begin using VMI to collaborate more closely with our
channel partners. It will help us work together every day to ensure high service
levels and well-planned product assortments for the end customer while gaining
inventory and supply chain efficiencies for both our distributors and us. That
will ultimately lead to increased mutual sales and profitability. We selected
Datalliance as our platform provider because they are the recognized leader in
VMI technology and service, and are well-respected by electrical distributors
across all of North America, including Canada. They also took time to
understand our goal set, making us very aligned on VMI expectations."
Tom Hoar, Datalliance Sales Director, said: "We are proud to welcome Schneider
Electric Canada to the Datalliance customer community. They are dedicated to
supply chain excellence, and to working with key partners to increase sales and
service to their mutual end customers while at the same time streamlining
inventory management, order handling and product life cycle management. The VMI
process in Canada has picked up lots of steam the past couple years in the
electrical space, VMI is no longer seen as just an IT project, but is now
recognized as a focused sales growth and service initiative rooted in
collaboration. Suppliers and distributors have both seen the benefits in terms
of improved service levels, inventory efficiency, visibility and end customer
sales. Companies in the electrical industry in Canada are now steadily expanding
the use of this collaborative business process to more trading partners."
