| Irvine, CA, May 30, 2005 - Wolverine Decision
Technology, Inc. today announced that KHS Musical Instrument Co.
Ltd., a global top ten musical instrument manufacturer and distributor,
has selected Wolverine's Collaborative Demand Management solution
to rapidly improve its demand chain and supply chain efficiency
and effectiveness.
With its operations now spanning North America, Europe, Japan,
China and Taiwan, KHS is expanding its presence worldwide and gradually
shifting its emphasis from an OEM business to a brand business.
The expansion and new business focus is forcing the company to rethink
its operations and IT strategy in order to not only survive the
stiff competition, but increase market share and profitability.
KHS wants to improve visibility both on the demand and supply sides
to enhance its responsiveness to the market while reducing operational
costs. KHS selected Wolverine's collaborative demand management
solution for its functionality, ease of use and integration with
existing systems.
KHS expects the deployment to substantially upgrade its capability
to understand true market demand, increase customer service levels,
reduce inventory risk and improve cash-to-cash cycles.
