CHAINALYTICS NAMED TO LIST OF 100 GREAT SUPPLY CHAIN PARTNERS
Company Makes List for Seventh Straight Year
Atlanta - July 27, 2010 - For the seventh year in a row, SupplyChainBrain, the world's most comprehensive supply chain management information resource for supply chain intelligence, strategy and innovation, has named Chainalytics LLC, a supply chain consulting firm focused on enabling fact-based supply chain decisions, as one of the 100 Great Supply Chain Partners in its July, 2010 issue of SupplyChainBrain magazine.
SupplyChainBrain’s eighth annual 100 Great Supply Chain Partners program is the result of a six-month on-line poll in which supply chain professionals are asked to nominate vendors and service providers whose solutions have made a significant impact on their company’s efficiency, customer service and overall supply chain performance.
"In 2010, we received more than 2,800 nominations from small and large companies covering scores of different industries," states Brad Berger, publisher of SupplyChainBrain. "More than 400 vendors of every conceivable type of supply chain activity were nominated -- from very specialized technologies, to a wide range of third-party logistics, transportation and consulting services. The 100 companies that received the most qualified nominations are represented on this year's list, which is published within the July issue of SupplyChainBrain magazine and on "SupplyChainBrain.com."
"Being recognized for 7 straight years is a true testament to the partnerships we have built with our amazing clients,” said Mike Kilgore, president and CEO, Chainalytics. "We are honored to work with companies that not only adapt to the changing market, but are also forward-thinking in their approach to supply chain management. We look forward to growing these lasting relationships well into the future.”
One client nominating Chainalytics this year as a great partner is Kraft Foods. Kraft nominated Chainalytics as a result of their membership in Chainalytics’ Model-Based Benchmarking Consortium, “We use it as a barometer on where we are relative to the industry,” says Michael Cole, director of transportation in North America. Cole describes Chainalytics as an “approachable” consultant that is very open to discussing alternatives “without bullying you down one particular path,” he says. “To my mind, that means they have a better chance of bringing the organization to the finish line and hitting the productivity targets, which is why you hired them in the first place.”
