Informed Anticipation™

The Steelwedge AdvantageSome companies look to today’s unpredictable market dynamics and claim that being “ready to respond” is more achievable than staying dynamically in front of change. At Steelwedge, we see it differently.

While our solutions always help our customers respond to the unforeseen, they also tackle head-on the challenge of continuously staying ahead of market dynamics with the most powerful data aggregation and advanced analytics in the industry.

We call it Informed Anticipation. The result? The right products, in the right place, at the right time, for the right customers, without the wasted inventory, time and expense that “waiting to respond” requires.

Why “wait to respond” when you can plan better?

Our modern, Data-Efficient Science™ ensures only the cleanest, most relevant data informs your plans, even when large amounts of diverse data inputs are considered. We deliver streamlined planning for operational decision making, and so aren’t slowed down by inefficient processes and data requirements of systems built for detailed manufacturing planning or other uses and adapted to operations planning.

With Steelwedge:

• You get a system purpose-built for better operational decision making.

Let’s face it: for plans to truly anticipate what’s ahead of you, they need to be fully informed by sales teams, product leaders, marketing teams, demand planners, supply planners, executives, and even those outside your company – partners, suppliers, customers and distribution channel players.

To get everyone actively engaged in planning, your system must be easy to understand, use and explore.

That’s why our solution leverages all the power of Microsoft® Excel while also enhancing it with enterprise-level control, scalability and security on our cloud platform. This makes it easy for you to pull in information from the back-office and transactional systems you use today, for fully-informed, consistent analysis. Plus we make it easy to incorporate both structured and unstructured external and social data to help you sense market changes before they happen.

• You make continuous planning a natural part of every role across your business.

Whether you’re a CFO wanting to improve revenue planning, a product leader needing to introduce new products at just the right time to minimize excess and obsolete inventory, a sales leader needing to know the right revenue to commit to before entering a strategy meeting with the CEO, or part of an executive team committed to a transformational Integrated Business Planning initiative, Steelwedge’s cloud-based platform can deliver just what you need, when you need it, without solution overkill or shortcomings.

• We’ll meet you where your planning needs are.

Making the best possible decision at every point in time requires capabilitites that other solutions just don’t deliver.
