Key Features

  • Personal Alerts provide exception-based notifications of supply and demand conditions that could harm the business via email, web and flat file. Users define alerts with their own thresholds and conditions. Alerts are centrally managed using Message Center
  • Active Spreadsheets: Global access to live data from multiple, disparate systems (whether internal or external to the organization) aligns action teams around a single view of the changes in supply and demand in a spreadsheet view
  • Resolution Engine: Rapid, iterative modeling enables action team members throughout and beyond the enterprise to propose and share action alternatives to drive effective resolution to continually changing situations
  • Live Scorecard: Multiple what-if action plans are immediately viewed in the context of real world scorecarding, ensuring that any chosen course conforms to business objectives and best practices
