Manhattan Associates' transportation functionality was also a differentiator. New Balance was able to reduce freight charges, eliminate back end processes, reduce labor costs and ensure in-house control to freight bill auditing and payment.
"Manhattan Associates has helped us achieve our goals today, while planning for the future," said Teixeira. "We hope to continue to work together as we explore other areas and technologies and expand our supply chain practices to our operations around the world."
Jeff Mitchell, Manhattan Associates' Executive VP of Americas, said, "The combined capabilities of our Warehouse, Transportation and Performance Management solutions will help New Balance more quickly and easily synchronize and analyze many processes in its supply chain for optimized performance."
"Together, we will work with New Balance to help it maintain its competitive edge in the consumer supply chain and meet the requirements of today's sophisticated retailers," he said.
