COSTA MESA, Calif. -- SYSPRO, a leading producer of enterprise software, has today announced the inclusion of the company in the "Supply & Demand Chain Executive 100," a comprehensive listing of "supply chain solution and service providers [that] are helping their customers meet the challenges of today's marketplace."

Referring to the "100," Supply & Demand Chain Executive Editor Andrew K. Reese states, "We sought to identify the leading providers of supply chain services and technologies who are at the forefront of enabling the supply chain. But more than that, we sought to uncover the best practices and processes that leading companies are putting in place around these services and technologies to bring new competitive advantages to their supply chains."

Companies listed in the Supply & Demand Chain Executive 100 are grouped by functional segment of the supply chain. SYSPRO, selected for its highly sophisticated Forecasting solution, is included under "Order/Demand Management," with the following description. "Makes forecasting a real-time process: Companies like XRP, Inc. are tapping into real-time capabilities in the SYSPRO Forecasting solution to more closely align inventory and production with demand. Results: Less inventory while meeting customer requirements, the ability to accommodate seasonal demand changes, improved customer satisfaction."

According to SYSPRO USA President Joey Benadretti, "Accurate Forecasting is a key element in achieving Lean manufacturing, and the real-time nature of SYSPRO Forecasting helps companies to reduce stock levels, maximize existing resources and improve profits by producing to customer demand rather than tying up large sums in raw materials inventories. SYSPRO Forecasting is a cornerstone of the SYSPRO Inventory Optimization suite, which also includes Families and Groupings and Inventory Optimizer modules. It enables companies to effectively fulfill demand and identify how to gain additional profits from their inventories."
