With Voyager it’s possible to benefit from supply chain transformation without turning the company upside down. Our

integrated solution suite lets you target the areas of greatest need –

and achieve measurable, positive business results – fast.

Performance Management allows you to proactively monitor, notify, control and measure supply chain activities on an exception basis, both within your company and throughout the extended supply chain network.

Value Chain Collaboration accelerates sales and operations planning (S&OP), as well as strategic trading partner relationships to manage demand plans, direct material procurement, fulfillment and financial goals to increase profitability and improve service.

Demand Optimization provides the visibility to dramatically increase forecast accuracy, streamline product introductions, assess promotions and create plans attuned to the market.

Inventory Optimization enables you to set optimal inventory targets at each node of a multi-echelon manufacturing and distribution network to match strategic inventory goals.

Supply Optimization helps slash lead times, dynamically source materials and synchronize production plans, optimize manufacturing, and reduce distribution costs.

Transportation and Logistics Optimization provides best-of-breed transportation, warehousing and inventory management to ensure cost-effective order fulfillment.

In many industries, production is moving farther away from the point of consumption. Supply chains are growing into widely dispersed global supply networks, with multiple layers of sourcing, sales channels and shorter product life cycles. Can you afford longer lead times when customers are calling for quicker service?

The complexity can be overwhelming. Even so, it has to be managed in real- or near-real time. And it can be, when technology enables a clear view of forecasts, orders, inventories and service across your global network. Logility Voyager Solutions provide the visibility and automation you need to proactively plan, source, schedule, produce, store, transport and trace global supply chain activities.

Compete like never before Logility offers you a three-pronged strategy for gaining a competitive advantage:

The visibility to OUTPLANThe velocity to OUTPACEThe innovation to OUTPERFORM

As a result, you can more profitably satisfy customer demand – and stay in the winner’s circle – by getting the right products at the right cost to the right place at the right time.
