Chainalytics Announces Partnership With Equazion

Alliance to Enable New Supply Chain Performance Analytics Service Line

Atlanta - April 1, 2008 - Chainalytics LLC, the leading provider of advanced analytical supply chain services, announced today a partnership with Europe-based Equazion to provide supply chain performance analytics services to its clients. Chainalytics will use the Equazion analytical toolkit to provide customer, supplier and product profitability analysis as part of its robust supply chain strategy offerings.

Chainalytics will utilize Equazion's analytical tools to provide strategic assessments, tactical planning, and operational scorecards for customer, product and supplier performance improvement. The combination of Equazion's leading data profiling, ABC costing technology and profitability modeling coupled with Chainalytics' proven capabilities for optimizing supply chains will enable clients to create strategies and policies that meet cost, service, and profitability goals.

"There are many generic ABC costing tools in the marketplace, but Equazion is uniquely tailored to facilitate deep analysis of supply chain cost and profit drivers," said Mike Kilgore, President and CEO, Chainalytics. "The Equazion analytical tools will enable us to extend the supply chain models we already create to answer not only cost minimization but also total-cost-to-serve questions. It only makes sense to extend the business context of network analysis to include the evaluation of customer and product profitability so that our clients can create networks that not only reduce costs, but also positively impact profitability."

"Chainalytics' deep analytical expertise helps its customers create optimal networks based on the best logistics strategies to serve each customer," said Peter Verstraeten, CEO, Equazion. "Using Equazion, Chainalytics will be able to help its clients determine if the customers and products should be there in the first place. Our tools will help them embed product and customer portfolio rationalization into supply chain strategies and inventory planning so that a client's network is grounded in profitability."
