o Optimized Supply Planning: Gain full visibility into your supply, production and distribution network to synchronize planning and execution and optimize the supply chain based on your minimum cost or maximum profit business strategy.

o Synchronized Supply Planning and Execution: Comprehensive support for sophisticated consolidation and optimization of shipment plans minimizes transportation costs and improves customer service through streamlined fulfillment operations and cost-effective on-time deliveries to customers.

Or, opening a new manufacturing facility and reallocating or splitting demand from an existing location. These features protect the historical integrity of your planning model while easily enabling the operation to adapt to new business scenarios driven by consolidation, acquisition, expansion, product introductions or product life cycle changes.
The Logility Voyager Solutions suite Version 6.5 is available today for deployment on Windows NT/2000, i-Series (AS/400) and UNIX server platforms.
