Zusammenarbeit mit IBM bei spanischem Lebensmittelgrosshändler Caprabo und mit Sun Microsystems
BARCELONA, Spain & DALLAS, Nov 5, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- i2 Technologies, Inc. (ITWO,
Trade), a leading provider of end-to-end supply chain management solutions, today announced that Spanish grocery retailer Caprabo has successfully completed the first phase of its deployment of i2 Retail solutions. Caprabo's goal in implementing i2 Retail solutions is to make the business more efficient and offer better customer service.
IBM has been a key contributor in the successful implementation of i2 solutions at Caprabo. IBM Business Consulting Services has collaborated with i2 to deliver the i2 Merchandise Planner business model design and the integration of i2 solutions with existing Caprabo systems. IBM intends to continue to provide Caprabo with business process and industry expertise to offer a complete solution that addresses specific Caprabo industry needs.
Caprabo has gone live with three core solutions from i2's Merchandise Planning suite: i2 Merchandise Planner, i2 Demand Planner and i2 Replenishment Planner.
i2 Merchandise Planner helps the entire Caprabo organization
to develop more accurate budgets by integrating and managing
business, financial and departmental plans. Additionally, it
provides visibility of performance against plans and assists
in assortment planning.
-- i2 Demand Planner is a powerful forecasting tool that is
designed to improve customer service levels across all product
categories. It allows Caprabo to tailor forecasts to a
product's characteristics, i.e. fast or slow moving items,
promotional lines or new product introductions.
-- i2 Replenishment Planner combined with i2 Demand Planner uses
the forecasts to calculate optimized stock requirements for
more than 7,000 items in three distribution centers (DCs) in
the Catalonia and Madrid region, more than 60 percent of
Caprabo's business. Based on these forecasts, the system
automatically generates purchase orders and builds more
complete truckloads for suppliers. This is designed to allow
Caprabo to achieve the twin aims of reducing inventory and
improving customer service levels. Testing in the two
Catalonia based DCs -- Ciencas and Abrera -- has shown
inventory reductions of eight to 20 per cent. In addition, the
planners, who had previously been using transaction systems,
inventory reports and spreadsheets, have seen significant
productivity increases by using i2 Replenishment Planner.
Caprabo is currently in the process of rolling out i2
Replenishment Planner to all its distribution centers in
Spain.
"We are very pleased with the initial results of the implementation; expectations are being exceeded," says Xavier Argente, CEO of Caprabo
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov 5, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Sun Microsystems (SUNW, Trade) announced today a benchmark configuration with i2 Technologies, Inc. (ITWO, Trade) running i2 Service and Parts Management (SPM) on the Sun Fire(TM) 6800 midframe server. Testing i2 SPM on the bedrock of Sun technology -- the Solaris(TM) Operating System and UltraSPARC(R) architecture -- engineers simulated a time-phased forecast, inventory and replenishment plan for 10.1 million part locations, and generated an end-to-end plan over a 90-day horizon in one hour, 31 minutes, with peak planning throughput recorded at two-point-seven billion part location periods per hour. Today's announcement means a typical service supply chain business, channeling tens of thousands of items (SKUs) to hundreds of locations, can improve forecast accuracy, and optimize inventory required to meet customer demand and service level agreements.
i2 Service and Parts Management, a web-based solution, is designed to enable companies to maximize the utilization of parts, budgets and facilities to reach key performance objectives such as high customer service, low operating costs, improved margins and overall market leadership. Leveraging the solution on the Solaris OS can provide high availability and scalability, so businesses can have peace-of-mind knowing the right parts are on hand in the right location at the right time. To accomplish this task, i2 SPM utilizes business logic specific to the service and aftermarket parts industry with a three-tiered workflow:
