Ottawa, Ont. and Silicon Valley, CA; Jan., 2013 - Pelyco Systems, the
leading provider of web-based, collaborative supply chain/logistics
visibility and spreadsheet management solutions, today announced
that Abbott Laboratories,
Abbott Park, IL
(NYSE: ABT)
the global healthcare company, has been able to radically
transform a high value global planning process from what was once a
complex, manual spreadsheet based process into collaborative
SmartSpreadSheet™ solution, delivering real-time visibility across a
global business operation.
Abbott Laboratories is a leading
global health care company with locations in more than 150
countries.
A
Fortune 200 company with approximately 70,000 employees worldwide,
Abbott remains one of the most far-reaching, diversified healthcare
companies today. Abbott
has been a long time customer of Pelyco Systems relying heavily on
Pelyco’s suite of SmartSpreadSheet control tower based solutions.
The requirement for
critical daily communication tool between Abbott’s International
Customer Service and Demand Planning groups regarding order status,
shipments and delivery had grown into a manual process managed in
multiple standalone spreadsheets with multiple participants across
the globe. Pelyco was
able to deliver a more dynamic, real-time and intuitive solution
that requires almost zero training for North American and offshore
users. With built in
multi-user collaboration capabilities, the SmartSpreadSheet solution
integrates with SAP and allows the global user community to
proactively collaborate regarding customer orders across all regions
regardless of time zone.
Pelyco System’s collaborative SmartSpreadSheet solution has
delivered a much more automated, intuitive, and collaborative
planning solution to the Abbott
International Customer Service and
Demand Planning groups. The SmartSpreadSheet system has dramatically
reduced the time and manual effort previously consumed.
Abbott now has real-time
global order status at their fingertips and dynamic collaboration
between all participants in International Customer Service and
Demand Planning group.
