NGC Software Receives Supply & Demand Chain Executive’s “SDCE 100” Award for Top Supply Chain
Projects in 2017
NGC is recognized as a winner for seventh consecutive year
Supply & Demand Chain Executive, a leading publication focusing on supply and demand chain transformation, has
selected NGC Software, a leading provider of cloud-based Product
Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Supply Chain Management (SCM) solutions, as a recipient of the SDCE 100 Award for 2017. NGC received
the prestigious award for the seventh consecutive year, demonstrating the company’s consistent commitment to supply chain
excellence.
The SDCE 100 is an annual list of 100 great supply chain projects. These projects show how supply chain solution and service
providers help their customers and clients achieve supply chain excellence and prepare their supply chains for success.
This year, NGC was recognized for their work with Strategic Partners, the leading manufacturer and distributor of medical
apparel, footwear, accessories and school uniforms in more than 50 countries, as well as online. Experiencing rapid expansion and
business growth, Strategic Partners selected NGC to help manage and reduce their lead times for development and sourcing.
Using NGC’s Fashion PLM and Supply Chain Management software, Strategic Partners now has the ability to improve customer service
and manage product quality. With cost reduction, shorter timelines, improved delivery and vast improvements in both internal and
external communications, the company is reaching a new level of transparency and productivity across all departments.
“We’re proud to be included in the SDCE 100 for the seventh consecutive year,” said Mark Burstein, president of sales and
development, NGC Software. “Our relationship with Strategic Partners is a great example of how NGC is working with leading
retailers and brands to enable the Connected Enterprise, create supply chain transparency and ensure better product quality.”
