| Irvine, CA, July 30, 2005 - Wolverine Decision
Technology, Inc. today announced that Gigabyte Technology, a leading
global IT solution provider in motherboards, notebooks, desktop
PCs, wireless communication and network servers, has signed a purchase
agreement to deploy Wolverine's Collaborative Demand Management
solution on an effort to increase demand planning efficacy and better
synchronize demand and supply operations.
Gigabyte has recently evolved from a pure OEM business to a more
brand-focused business, and is aggressively expanding its world-wide
sales channel in order to solidify its market leader position in
the global IT value chain and improve profitability and competitiveness.
However, to succeed in the current low margin, ultra-competitive
economic environment, Gigabyte realized it needed to improve market
visibility, reduce operation costs and increase customer satisfaction.
Only through consolidating and synchronizing demand and supply side
processes can it address these concerns effectively. Gigabyte selected
Wolverine to facilitate such an effort and will implement the company's
intelligent and adaptive Collaborative Demand Management (CDM) software.
Once the Wolverine solution is deployed, Gigabyte expects to gain
the following benefits:
- Improved market visibility
- Increased demand forecast accuracy
- Reduced inventory both in material and finished goods
- Increased inventory turns
- Reduced distribution cost
- Increased customer satisfaction
