LLamasoft, a provider of supply chain network design software, has integrated into its Supply Chain Guru product a routing, mileage and mapping solution from ALK Technologies.
"As fuel costs continue to rise, our users are requiring more precision in their freight routing and optimization models," says Toby Brzoznowski, LLamasoft vice president of sales. "We are also seeing a continued focus on globalization and low-cost country sourcing, so our integration of PC*MILER gives our users a new and necessary level of detail for global freight analysis."
"ALK is very pleased to integrate with LLamasoft's Supply Chain Guru. This partnership brings the proven capabilities of PC*MILER into the logistics planning process to help foresee problems and save valuable investment resources before a single shipment is made-just as it circumnavigates problems and saves resources for so many actual shipments everyday, around the world," says Roy Schijns, an ALK vice president.
