ToolsGroup Moves to Leaders Quadrant in Gartner 2016 Magic Quadrant for Supply Chain Planning SOR
Position based on Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute
Boston – January 25, 2016 – ToolsGroup today announced that it was recognized by Gartner, Inc. as a leader in the recently released Magic Quadrant for Supply Chain Planning System of Record (SOR). ToolsGroup this year moves into the “Leaders” quadrant, through significant improvements in both “Vision” and “Execution” from the previous Magic Quadrant.
“We believe moving into the Leader’s quadrant of this year’s Magic Quadrant for Supply Chain SOR represents a huge milestone for the company,” commented Joseph Shamir, CEO, ToolsGroup. “As complex demand and distribution environments become ‘the new normal’, we’ve seen considerable traction in recent years for our advanced demand analytics and automation capabilities.”
Global manufacturers and retailers such as Absolut Vodka, Carlsberg, Costa Express, Harley Davidson, The NHS (UK) and Wayfair all rely on ToolsGroup to break through supply chain and business performance barriers through highly automated, high frequency, supply chain planning.
According to Gartner methodology, Magic Quadrant Leaders, “Leaders execute well against their current vision and are well positioned for tomorrow.” An SCP SOR is a planning platform that enables a company to create, manage, link, align, collaborate and share its planning data across a supply chain — from demand plan creation through the supply-side response, and from detailed operational planning through tactical-level planning.
