Manhattan Associates, Inc. (Manhattan), incorporated on February 24, 1998, is a developer and provider of supply chain commerce solutions. The Company operates through three geographical segments: the Americas, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and the Asia Pacific (APAC). It is engaged in developing, selling, deploying, servicing and maintaining software solutions designed to manage supply chains, inventory and omni-channel operations for retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, logistics providers and other organizations. The Company's solutions consist of software, services and hardware, which coordinate people, workflows, assets, events and tasks across the functions linked in a supply chain from planning through execution. Its solutions enable coordinating the actions, data exchange and communication of participants in supply chain ecosystems, such as manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, trading partners, transportation providers, channels (such as catalogers, store retailers and Web outlets) and consumers.
The Company offers its solutions in three areas: Supply Chain, Omni-Channel and Inventory. The Company's solutions provide companies with the tools needed to manage distribution. It provides transportation management solutions to shippers. Its Omni-Channel solutions provide both central or corporate solutions that manage inventory availability across various channels and locations, as well as local solutions deployed in retail stores. Its inventory solutions provide distributors of various finished goods (apparel, food, auto parts and pharmaceuticals) the ability to forecast demand, determine when, where and how much inventory is needed and translate this into an inventory buying plan.
The Company's supply chain solutions consist of three components: Distribution Management, Transportation Management and Visibility. Distribution Management applications consist of its Warehouse Management Solutions (WMS), which are used to manage the complexity of the modern warehouse. These manage the flow of goods and information across the distribution center. The distribution management suite includes capabilities focused on execution within the distribution center, management of personnel, performance and the overall distribution center layout.
The Company's transportation management solutions (TMS) help shippers and include components, such as procurement and modeling tools to setup a network, along with planning, execution and settlement tools to manage day-to-day transportation requirements. The Company provides visibility and event management tools that provide alerts to when events occur in the global supply chain and when they don't occur (such as missing a vessel overseas) that can have a cascading effect on production lines and freight.
The Company's Omni-Channel Solutions include Omni-Channel Central Solutions and Omni-Channel Local Solutions. Its Omni-Channel Central Solutions offer Enterprise Inventory, which builds out an inventory availability picture that can be updated in near-real time with feeds from the warehouse, the store and the network. Enterprise Order Management merges this inventory availability data with demand feeds from across the organization to match supply with demand. Its call center application provides representatives access to this inventory picture, as well as customer sales history to satisfy shopper needs, regardless of whether it is an exchange, a return or a new order. Its Omni-Channel Local Solutions include mobile Point of Sale to process any purchase transactions, Clienteling to provide the associate with a picture of the shopper's purchase history, and Tablet Retailing to offer a virtual showroom. The Local solutions also include Store Inventory and Fulfillment.
The Company's Inventory solutions address, which products should be carried and the quantity that will be needed at each location by date. Its Inventory solutions include Inventory Optimization and Planning. Its Inventory Optimization includes a set of applications consisting of demand forecasting capabilities. Its Planning solutions provide merchants the tools to create channel-, store- or region-specific assortments. These tools offer channel-specific metrics and methodologies.
