JDA Software Group, The Supply Chain Company, has announced the release of six JDA Cloud Optimise services. JDA Cloud Optimise services enable customers to enhance and transform their supply chains by expanding their internal teams to include JDA expertise and standardised, repeatable processes that yield consistent results.

Moving beyond simply organising information, JDA Cloud Optimise teams work hand in hand with customers to generate concrete recommendations and actionable plans ready for execution.
The results are contextually relevant insights into big data challenges facing every global enterprise today. Cloud Optimise recommendations help customers improve business responsiveness by taking full advantage of JDA software solution capabilities.
JDA’s Cloud Optimise offerings include demand planning, replenishment planning, inventory optimisation, next generation collaborative planning forecasting and replenishment, category management, and workforce management for retailers. Results include collaboratively built demand forecasts and replenishment plans, store assortment add/keep/delete lists, and optimised schedules for retail store associates.
Part of JDA Cloud Services, JDA Cloud Optimise is an extension of JDA’s best-of-class supply chain business, offering JDA customers support in tuning business processes, generating plans, analysing results, conferring with internal and external stakeholders, and delivering the business intelligence needed to excel in today’s global supply chains.
“We are very excited to announce these expanded services,” says David Gai, executive VP, services, JDA Software.
“Our customers are struggling under the weight of big data, the strain of regularly shifting supply routes, and the demands for shorter and less expensive approaches to getting products to market.
“When we combine JDA’s market-leading software with the business acumen developed within JDA’s team of supply chain experts, we are able to work shoulder to shoulder with our clients to drive continuous improvement in their supply chains.”
Delivering a long term solution is not new to JDA. JDA Cloud Optimise follows in the footsteps of many successful long term engagements with documented results. For example, JDA has helped many manufacturers optimise their global inventories including one of the largest automotive companies in the world.
With thousands of daily spare parts orders, it is a challenge for the automotive company to ensure that the right part is always in the right place at the right time. JDA Cloud Optimise teams work with the company to operate a system to ensure that the spare parts inventory can be managed with greater agility and accuracy across the entire global supply chain.
JDA Cloud Optimise works in conjunction with JDA Cloud Perform, which includes hardware and software management for JDA solutions; application and hardware infrastructure management; and managed deployment, test and production environments to support system upgrades and enhancements.
