2005, 9.30 a.m. (EET)
Yorkshire Purchasing Organisation (YPO), the largest public sector
consortia provider of goods and services and food to both the
Education and Local Authority sectors in the UK, has decided to
use the Aldata G.O.L.D. Supply Chain Management software to support
its wholesale operations supplying around 17,000 schools and its
30,000 customers over all. The order covers Aldata G.O.L.D. modules
for central data management, order management, warehouse management
and replenishment optimisation. The project will start immediately.
YPO operates from its warehouses in Wakefield and makes extensive
use of 3rd party logistics providers as well as its own transport.
"YPO has been successful because of the high levels of service
we have offered", said Steve Atherton, Director of YPO. "Now
we are looking to increase our supply chain efficiencies and control
of the business as well as expand our operations. We are convinced
that Aldata's solution and experience are ideal to help us achieve
this".
"Aldata G.O.L.D. is fully browser-based allowing all data
and processing to be controlled centrally, and avoids complex
software distribution challenges. This is important to YPO as
they will be offering Internet-based value added services to their
customers in the future", says Mark Croxton, Managing Director
of Aldata Solution in the UK.
René Homeyer, CEO of Aldata Solution Oyj, adds: "The
Aldata G.O.L.D. software suite is now more and more recognised
as the solution of choice not only for core business operations
but also for leveraging advanced technology to improve business
processes and to enhance customer service".
