Ruff Wear To Reveal In A JustEnough Webinar How Technology Has Helped Solve Its Most Complex Demand And Inventory Planning Challenges
The Sept. 21 Webinar Will Highlight How JustEnough Advanced Planning SuiteApp for NetSuite Can Help Companies Significantly Improve Demand Management
JustEnough Software Corporation, a leading provider of demand management solutions for retailers, distributors and brand owners worldwide, recently announced a webinar featuring Ruff Wear, the leading producer of high performance dog gear, and the success the company has realized using the JustEnough Advanced Planning SuiteApp for NetSuite's cloud-computing platform. The webinar is part of NetSuite's SuiteApp LIVE 2011 program and will take place on Wednesday, Sept. 21 at 1 p.m. ET.
The SuiteApp was built on NetSuite's SuiteCloud development platform, which is a comprehensive offering of cloud-based products, development tools and services designed to help customers and commercial software developers take advantage of the significant economic benefits of cloud computing. The complete SuiteCloud offering includes NetSuite's multi-tenant, always-on SaaS infrastructure and the NetSuite Business Suite of applications: Accounting/ERP, CRM and Ecommerce.
Inspired by pursuits such as backpacking, skiing, and mountain biking, Ruff Wear's gear includes dog boots and boot liners, dog lifejackets and dog packs – along with staples such as canine beds, bowls and leashes. Rocco Villano, Ruff Wear's Global Demand Planner, will discuss how the company is leveraging advanced planning technology to overcome challenges created by growth and long lead times (brought on by off-shore manufacturing).
"We were much too reliant on a spreadsheet-driven planning process, which was taking a toll on supply chain efficiency. Already a NetSuite user, we needed to add a layer on top of our existing system that would drive better forecast accuracy and minimize stock-outs," Villano said. "The solution had to integrate fully and seamlessly with our NetSuite enterprise resource planning system, as well as support our sales and operations planning process. The functionality that the JustEnough Advanced Planning for NetSuite SuiteApp offered was the perfect fit for our expanding business."
Representatives from JustEnough and NetSuite will participate in the webinar, discussing how growing retailers and distributors like Ruff Wear can gain access to best-in-class planning solutions that can help them tackle their toughest business challenges and even exceed customer expectations.
Greg Marmulak, JustEnough's Vice President of Professional Services and one of the upcoming webinar panelists, said, "JustEnough's solutions combined with NetSuite's industryleading cloud-computing platform give companies the functionality they need to improve forecast accuracy, reduce inventory, and minimize stock-outs in a cost-effective and timely manner."
JustEnough's suite of easy-to-use Demand Management solutions is fully integrated into NetSuite's industry-leading, on-demand business management suite. The JustEnough SuiteApps include: Retail Planning, Advanced Planning, Sales Forecasting and the new iPadbased Mobile Sales Force Automation application.
