Manhattan Associates offers logistics and planned supply chain solutions for small to large businesses. Added to the Industry page.

I was a little skeptical about writing about Manhattan Associates, because I usually like to keep with companies that are industry specific, but I decided to give them a chance. They’re not specifically for the fashion industry, but read about them in one of the most respected women’s wear magazine WWD…so they can’t be too bad.

They are here to help you from start to finish from the warehouse, to transportation to get your customers what they want (your product) when they want it (right on time).

Manhattan Associates offer many solutions that help make your supply chain more cost efficient to build revenue, but not sacrifice the quality/rate at which you provide your product or service.

There are many different directions you could go while working with Manhattan Associates. Whether you choose an Integrated Planning Solution or Integrated Logistic Solution or combine both to better suit your business needs.

Integrated Planning lays out a plan for your business so that you know where you’re going before you get there. They help you make the right decisions in advance to ensure efficiency throughout your supply chain.

Advanced Planning consist of:

• Financial Planning
• Store Clustering
• Assortment Planning
• Item Planning
• Catalog Planning
• Web Planning
• Promotion Planning
• Demand Forecasting
• Promotion Forecasting
• Replenishment
• Vendor Management Inventory

The Logistics Planning helps you track your goods so that you know where they are and what is happening at all times in the process decreasing the chance of delays in your supply chain.

Logistics Include:

• Distributed Order Management
• Warehouse Management
• Slotting Optimization
• Labor Management
• Yard Management
• Transportation Management
• Trading Partner Management
• Reverse Logistics Management
• RFID Solutions

The above are only many of the solutions they offer for your supply chain. If you would like more information or have no idea of what some of the above is talking about visit their website, because they go in-depth to explain each process that I have listed above.
