LOGILITY Inc., a provider of collaborative supply chain optimization and advanced retail planning solutions, today announced the company became a corporate sponsor of the Australasian Supply Chain Institute (ASCI).

As a corporate sponsor, Logility is better positioned to provide the vibrant Australasian supply chain community with new opportunities to enrich their supply chain knowledge and learn from the best practices of Logility’s more than 40 years helping to optimize some of the world’s leading supply chains. 

The Australasian region has experienced significant growth that has led to increasingly more complex supply chains.

Companies across the region have turned to Logility Voyager Solutions to transform these challenges into opportunities for profitable growth. Today’s announcement further strengthens Logility’s commitment to and helping to shape the region’s supply chain of the future.

“Optimizing supply chain performance is an increasingly vital component of a company’s success in today’s rapidly evolving global market,” said Allan Dow, president, Logility. “Fierce competition, rising customer expectations and volatility in both supply and demand are driving the need for supply chain professionals to employ resilient business processes and advanced planning solutions such as Logility Voyager Solutions to drive more profitable growth and boost efficiencies. Logility is excited to partner with ASCI to help elevate the role of supply chain in the region.”
