An Intellyx Brain Candy Brief
E2open offers a cloud-based supply chain trading, visibility and optimization platform. Their biggest differentiator, however, isn’t in the applications on that platform — it’s in the scale and sophistication of the network of suppliers and channel partners gathered there.
Millions of buyers and suppliers, from the world’s highest-volume consumer brands and industrial OEMs to the capillary farms, mines, trucks and individual stores at the ends of global supply chains, use E2open’s network as a common interface for collaboration.
As one of the world’s first known SaaS B2B marketplaces starting around the turn of the millennium, E2open’s business has survived challenging market shifts and morphed as significantly as the just-in-time order-to-delivery process of any high-tech firm.
After a significant reorg and investments in acquiring some adjacent networks and software vendors in planning, analytics and content, the firm has now just offered unlimited volume pricing options and free end-to-end visibility of any order or asset in their network, to provide better data fidelity and drive further customer engagement with their more advanced intelligent planning and optimization tools.
