“To compete and succeed in unified commerce, retailers must have technology to precisely predict consumer actions across all channels,” said Greg White, CEO at Blue Ridge. “By combining order management and supply chain planning, retailers are able to align inventory more effectively than ever before, deliver superior customer experiences, and significantly improve profitability.”

The joint solution will focus on three areas:

  • Predicting Omnichannel Demand – Enables retailers to preemptively position inventory to efficiently and effectively serve any channel without risking out-of-stocks and or excessive costs.
  • Improving Order Management – Provides precise demand visibility to route online orders to the least cost fulfillment and geographical location while assuring fulfillment would not risk stockouts and lost sales for walk-in traffic.
  • Enabling Smarter Reverse Logistics and Returns Management – Improves visibility to demand for returned inventory items in order to get returns to the right location, at the right time for sale.

“Combining OMS and SCP technologies provides retailers with a closed loop retail system that learns, adapts and improves business margins. It is truly the next phase in unified commerce," said Nick McLean, CEO, OrderDynamics. "Our solution lets retailers focus on the art of retailing, while knowing their technology is hard at work managing and enhancing the supply and fulfillment aspects of their business.”
