Blue Sky Logistics and Optricity Complete Integration of Initial Product Offerings
PDF
Initiative Provides Full Embedding of Optricity’s Optimization Engine Into Blue Sky Logistics’ Supply Chain Visibility Framework
 
Coppell, Texas, August 2, 2006 – Blue Sky Logistics, Inc., a supply chain real-time visibility software company, and Optricity Corporation, a developer of supply chain optimization engines, have completed the integration of their two products for a joint offering that combines supply chain optimization with comprehensive executive visibility technology.  The new integrated product will be marketed by Blue Sky Logistics as Powered by Optricity™.  Last month, the two companies announced they had formed a partnership to collaborate on providing enhanced technology solutions for their customers.
By embedding Optricity’s Juncture Optimization™ engines into Blue Sky Logistics’ Insight™ executive decision dashboard, the companies can now not only alert customers to real-time pending issues and trends within their supply chains, but also solve complex optimization problems. 
 

Optricity provides supply chain optimization engines and applications that solve complex algorithmic problems within the total realm of a company’s supply chain.  With the integration of Optricity’s dynamic slotting product as the first algorithmic solver engine within Blue Sky Logistics’ product as the supply chain visibility solution, the two companies now provide customers with a more comprehensive visibility and resolution application than has previously been available in the market.

“We have now created a more comprehensive executive management tool for our customers to make key decisions,” said Steve Hensley, president of Blue Sky Logistics.  “Because Optricity has the top supply chain optimization engines, our ‘Powered by Optricity’ solution is another way we will add real supply chain value for our customers.”

“Our technical staff has worked hard to combine optimization techniques with total supply chain visibility to provide senior managers with an extremely powerful decision-making product,” added Dan Basmajian , president of Optricity Corporation.  “For key managers wanting to make their supply chains more productive, this tool is the first of its kind that will help deliver on that goal.”  

About Optricity

Based in Research Triangle Park, N.C., Optricity Corporation offers mathematically advanced, optimization engines to enhance return on supply chain investment.  Capitalizing on leading web technologies, improved computing algorithms and analysis techniques, Optricity’s tools integrate with current supply chain staples.  The company uses optimization techniques to solve enterprise supply chain problems that are not addressed by the mainstream systems such as OMS, WMS, TMS and ERP.  Its engines optimize least cost solutions based on competing goals and constraints of multiple functions (data and systems) coming together at merge points or junctures.  For more information, visit www.optricity.com.
