Mission-Critical to Revenue
Optimize Allocation
“Engaged SumOpti 10 plus years ago as Vice President of Business Operations when the need for automating our spreadsheet-based customer/product allocation process surfaced. SumOpti fills a niche between the rigid ERP based tools and the data error prone spreadsheet process. SumOpti provided not only the application tools to get the job done, but the expertise to learn along with the team and help evolve the real-time engine over ten years from a few planners for a couple of business segments to thirty plus planners over multiple business segments. Now, the SumOpti business application is mission critical in providing the shipping plan for all allocated scheduling in the ERP.
Success with the application, willingness to listen to the customer, and the business skills to adapt to new concepts led to a collaboration on developing AI-based, data analytic driven allocation tools with the potential to create autonomous planners. In summary, SumOpti provides hands on flexibility and data analytic expertise that is ahead of the ERP based tools and is able to adapt to and improve our processes in a way that is not possible with the alternatives.” VP Business Operations...more |

Qend Revenue Recognition
“At NetApp, we brought in an outside company, SumOpti, to help Planning develop a real-time engine to prioritize orders to maximize revenue. It would replace spreadsheets. It was very challenging but we worked with SumOpti to initiate a model that could use dynamic variables to establish priorities for our contract manufacturer.
It is very flexible and, more importantly, very fast. Without impacting our ERP, we were able to run hourly reports at quarter end to quickly and accurately communicate priorities for production. After five years of usage, this real-time engine is still an integral part of Planning's process. During the development, SumOpti was concerned with every detail of our process, and delivered the model on time. They helped us with solution design by focusing on the process and what we wanted from the model. The end result was a significant increase in shipments and an elimination of confusion over priorities. Since then, SumOpti has developed a powerful multi-dimensional modeler that evaluates dependencies, identifies constrained supply, and measures impact on quarter-end revenue and delivery. It also provides a variety of executive reports. SumOpti has become a trusted partner. I recommend SumOpti's products highly.” Director, Planning...more |
