LogFire Announces Innovative Cloud-Based Dynamic Fulfillment Solution
ATLANTA, March 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- LogFire, the leading
multi-tenant cloud-based warehousing and in-store inventory management
and fulfillment solution provider, announces LogFire Dynamic
Fulfillment, leveraging the power of real-time supply chain planning
and execution to provide optimized fulfillment. Dynamic Fulfillment,
offered as part of LogFire's Version 6 Cloud-based Software as a
Service (SaaS) Solution suite, provides cross-industry value for any
company that has multiple sourcing locations and alternatives to meet
customer demand.
In today's customer demand-driven omni-channel and online ecommerce
world, businesses need to harness innovative ways to improve the
age-old problem of leveraging their investment in inventory,
transportation, and labor and make best overall decisions to maximize
customer service. With the cost effectiveness and massive processing
power "the cloud" provides, companies of all sizes can now afford a
solution to constantly evaluate every business decision and the effect
of ongoing real-world activities in real time, without the
limitations, default decision making, or timing lag of traditional
systems.
"Even the largest Tier 1 companies that have tried to standardized on
a common enterprise solution to be the hub of their back office or
merchandising operation, most still have two or more solutions -
whether by channel or by division or geography plus ecommerce - to
capture customer and/or store demand and default fulfillment
decisions," states Diego Pantoja-Navajas, LogFire founder and CEO.
Distributed Order Management (DOM) solutions, that have evolved since
the category was created in the late '90s to solve the enterprise
problem of disparate order management systems, were designed as a way
of creating a consolidated common order book of demand across systems.
"While filling a gap in enterprise systems, decade-old DOM technology
and solutions were not designed to leverage the power available today
in the cloud, nor are DOM solutions designed to make real-time
optimized decisions leveraging a combination of planning and execution
solution capabilities based on up to the minute execution realities,"
added Pantoja-Navajas.
LogFire Dynamic Fulfillment takes an innovative, highly flexible and
configurable approach to deliver optimized fulfillment decisions
across sourcing alternatives and locations. Leveraging virtually
unlimited processing power available in the cloud to provide timely
decisions based on real-time inventory and demand information,
advanced planning algorithms are able to weigh all alternatives and
constraints in making the most informed decision available for any
group of orders or individual order line to system-determine which
specific distribution center, warehouse, store or vendor location
should be used to fulfill any give order demand.
LogFire Dynamic Fulfillment leverages the ability to manage overall
end-to-end inventory data along with all multi-channel demand
information and online detail execution precision to drive integrated
advanced supply chain planning optimization algorithms embedded in the
Dynamic Fulfillment solution. Real-time decision making is performed
online in background at incredible speed and efficiency, and done in a
way to not impede or impact the operational performance of personnel
performing other online operational or logistics functions, but still
leverage live production data to make the best fulfillment sourcing
decisions. The solution is even able to re-evaluate and make improved
sourcing decisions over less intelligent order management or
enterprise systems defaults used to select a sourcing location in
today's operations.
Perfect for ecommerce companies, as well as retailers wishing to
advance their omni-channel and efulfillment initiatives, while
improving their overall inventory management and merchandising system
capabilities. Also highly applicable to any multi-source enterprise
operation in any industry that does not want to rely on their
non-optimized enterprise or ecommerce system default sourcing
information for fulfillment. LogFire Dynamic Fulfillment is an
extension to the LogFire inventory management, warehouse management,
and in-store inventory and fulfillment cloud-based solutions. Each of
the solutions can be installed separately or added as part of a phased
rollout to add incremental business value and benefit. Monthly SaaS
pricing allows companies of all sizes to be able to afford the latest
Tier 1 supply chain planning and execution capabilities and benefit
from ongoing solution innovation and new version releases.
