Manhattan Associates (NASDAQ: MANH), an international publisher of software solutions for Supply Chain and Omnichannel Commerce, announces that Schneider Electric, the world leader in energy management and automation, selected Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management and Manhattan Active® Transportation Management to energize its global distribution and transportation network as part of an enterprise-wide transformation strategy.
Manhattan Active® Supply Chain (the combination of Manhattan Active WM and Manhattan Active TM) will be implemented in more than 20 distribution centers. Schneider Electric also plans to deploy Manhattan Active TM on more than 200 operational sites. The unification of warehouses and transportation via Manhattan Active Supply Chain will allow the company to optimize the performance of its inventories, its operational efficiency, and the agility of its teams.
“After 12 successful years with Manhattan WMS, we decided to move to Manhattan Active Warehouse Management and expand its scope with Manhattan Active Transportation Management. The adoption of these two cloud-native solutions represents a significant step forward for our supply chain execution. It is also a new decisive step in the company’s transformation process,” comments Stuart Michael Whiting, senior vice president, GSC Logistics and Planning at Schneider Electric.
“For the past ten years, Manhattan has been a key WMS partner for Schneider Electric. Upgrading to Manhattan’s unified supply chain solution will allow Schneider to centralize control of its distribution, transportation, workforce management, and automation activities. This will translate into significant gains in terms of efficiency, productivity, and agility,” says Henri Seroux, senior VP of EMEA at Manhattan Associates.
“Manhattan’s unified supply chain solution will help us optimize the planning and execution of inbound and outbound flows. It will also provide us with unprecedented levels of visibility and control across our entire global network of distribution centers and transportation operations,” concludes Stuart Michael Whiting .
