DiCentral Inc., a leading innovator in supply chain management solutions
and B2B integration, and JDA® Software Group, Inc., today
announced that DiCentral has purchased cloud based On-Demand WMS, one of
JDA’s industry-leading Warehouse Management Systems.
“DiCentral is always seeking to improve the customer experience and
return on investment. On-Demand WMS (SmartTurn) will be brought to
market as a strong value-add to DiCentral’s comprehensive supply chain
integration suite and it will help our customers achieve end to end
supply chain visibility,” says DiCentral CEO Thuy Mai. “Our customers
want scalable tools to manage their businesses. This acquisition of a
cloud based WMS should make clear just how serious DiCentral is about
helping our customers, regardless of size, achieve a unique and lasting
supply chain advantage.”
“The On-Demand Warehouse Management System contains functionality that
is redundant with JDA’s core warehouse management solution and does not
fit into our go-forward product portfolio,” said Jean-Francois Gagne,
chief product officer, JDA. “We are confident that active customers will
continue to enjoy a safe and contiguous roadmap under DiCentral’s
leadership.”
Since 2000, DiCentral has been an industry leader in supply chain
integration management software and services. With over 6000 valued
customers processing millions of transactions annually, DiCentral has
consistently delivered quality products and services across the retail,
healthcare, pharmaceutical, automotive, chemical, logistics,
warehousing, food, consumer goods industries, and more. This acquisition
increases DiCentral’s ability to provide the industry’s best customer
service and deliver an even quicker and higher ROI for its clients.
According to Ann Grakin, CEO of ChainLink Research, “Warehouse
Management continues to be a critical function in the global supply
chain. Many innovations continue to be introduced to enhance operational
capabilities, as well as to allow those who manage the warehouse to
introduce new services to their customers and partners. The acquisition
clearly dictates DiCentral’s interest in staying on top of this critical
function and better enabling its customers to maintain their competitive
edge.”
