Two of the leading supply chain management software companies announced earlier this month that they were merging to form a single networked trading partner management technology solutions firm.<\/p>\n
Accellos — which is based in Colorado Springs, Colorado — has joined with the Minneapolis-based HighJump Software to create a new company that wil have 11,000 customers in 23 countries and operations in North America, Asia and Europe. The combination of the \u00a0two companies creates a product portfolio that is positioned to meet the anticipated demand of retailers, distributors and manufacturers to manage complex order fulfillment cycles, according to a joint news release<\/a> issued to announce the merger.<\/p>\n “The combination of Accellos and HighJump brings together a unique set of technologies, including networked trading partner connectivity, warehouse management, transportation management, and route delivery,” the news release stated. “This creates the opportunity for customers to work with a single technology provider with an adaptable technology backbone for omni-channel supply chain operations<\/a> and organizations of all sizes.”<\/p>\n The new company will operate under the name HighJump and continue to use the Accellos brand for mid-market supply chain execution technology. Accellos founder and CEO Micheal Cornell will serve as CEO of the newly formed company.<\/p>\n “Discussions with our customers have made it clear that omni-channel is a catalyst for rethinking their supply chain and its underlying technology,” Cornell said. “This combination brings extremely complementary technology to both Accellos and HighJump customers.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Two of the leading supply chain management software companies announced earlier this month that they were merging to form a single networked trading partner management technology solutions firm.
