Logility Acquires AdapChain

9/2/2016
Logility, Inc., a provider of collaborative supply chain optimization and advanced retail planning solutions, acquired privately-held AdapChain, a US-based developer of advanced integration solutions.

AdapChain’s technology speeds and simplifies the complex integration of supply chain with enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions through a proven template-based approach. AdapChain’s AdapLink (now Logility Voyager AdapLink) enables companies to enhance their supply chain capabilities by quickly integrating the rich transaction and master data from their enterprise systems with Logility Voyager Solutions.

The continued adoption of more mature business processes such as Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) and Integrated Business Planning (IBP), and the ability to leverage the Internet-of-Things (IoT) further drives the need to connect multiple enterprise systems across the organization. Voyager AdapLink simplifies the process of connecting these systems, including those from Infor, JDA, Microsoft, Oracle, and SAP, with Logility’s advanced, best-of-breed supply chain and retail optimization solutions to drive additional insight and visibility. By simplifying the integration and upgrade process, companies are able to realize lower total cost of ownership and increase the rate of system adoption within the organization.

Highlights of Voyager AdapLink:

•       Application-based integration delivers a comprehensive framework for continued innovation while providing advanced capabilities for error checking, data validation and transformations. Voyager AdapLink provides a quick, simple and repeatable process for supply chain to enterprise system integration.

•       Pre-built integration templates support a wide range of supply chain and ERP configurations. Separating the integration component from the underlying ERP and SCM technologies eliminates the need to specify, develop, test, and debug new components. This approach reduces risk, increases integration quality and shortens the payback period during the initial implementation and future for upgrades.

•       Data from multiple enterprise systems and beyond the four walls including IoT and social signals can be tightly integrated to support the needs of advanced planning processes including S&OP and long-range IBP.

•       Net change management and distributed processing synchronizes extremely high SKU volumes in less time by only exchanging data that has changed since the last update. This ensures scalability and speed. By reducing the load and return time, more time is available for high-value scenario analysis and business optimization of the supply chain.

•       Established business rules proactively identify incorrect or incompatible data, populate these data elements and direct action thru a corrective workflow. This process streamlines rollout and significantly reduces the need for costly manual intervention.
